Tyson Fury held back by security on WWE SmackDown after epic Braun Strowman confrontation
Tyson Fury was enraged after Braun Strowman threw Dolph Ziggler into the former heavyweight boxing champion.
Tyson Fury needed to be held back from reaching Braun Strowman by several security staff after the boxer jumped over the barricade at WWE Smackdown.
It all began when Strowman approached Fury, who was sitting in the front row, and pretended to square up to the ‘lineal’ heavyweight champion.
Fury even had a smile on his face at this point as two heavyweights stood only a few feet apart.
“You want these hands,” Strowman shouted to Fury before the light-hearted nature between the pair quickly ended after Ziggler’s interference.
You want these hands
He came flying through the air into Strowman’s back, who then threw Ziggler into the ring-post behind him.
Strowman then picked by Ziggler and launched the wrester directly into the barrier where Fury was sitting, knocking the 31-year-old backwards.
‘The Gypsy King’ was clearly annoyed at Strowman’s actions and as the 'The Monster Among Men' went on to win the bout, Fury could be seen shouting and gesturing towards him.
Fury then decided to jump the barrier but was stopped short of the ring by at least eighth security staff.
Be careful, @BraunStrowman...

As a chorus of “let them fight” echoed around the Staples Centre, security continued to move Fury away from ring as Strowman looked on and smiled.
After the clash Fury took to Twitter to give his verdict on a wild night in Los Angeles.
“Great catching up with all the WWE super stars tonight,” he tweeted.
“Grew up watching some of theses guys what an homer.”

Earlier in the night The Rock made a big impact on his return to SmackDown as he floored Baron Corbin.
The 47-year-old stunned fans as he mocked the King of the Ring winner before going on to show why he is the most electrifying man in all of entertainment.
After humiliating Corbin The Rock then goaded the former general manager of RAW into a fight.
Which, with the help of Becky Lynch, he eneded quickly after he successfully landed a ‘People’s Elbow’, followed up with a ‘Rock Bottom’ move.
