Tyson Fury May Not Appear On WWE TV Prior To Clash At The Castle Due To Entry Into The US Being Denied

Tyson Fury may not be able to enter the United States to appear on WWE TV.

It was reported on Tuesday that Tyson Fury and the WWE were in talks regarding a possible match for Fury at Clash At The Castle in September. While he will be free to travel to Wales if the deal goes through, we may not see Fury on WWE TV in the lead up to the premium live event. In the run-up to Clash At The Castle, RAW will be held in the US or Canadian venues with SmackDown being the same, with the go-home show prior to the event not having a venue as of this writing.

The Irish Mirror reported that on the 17th of June, Fury was denied entry into the United States due to his links to Irish criminal kingpin Daniel Kinahan, who currently has a 5 million dollar reward related to his capture.

Sources said the decision was taken by US authorities because of his former connections to Irish mob boss Daniel Kinahan, 44,, who now has a $5 million bounty on his head.

Fury was refused permission to board the plane – and a few hours later was seen at a major boxing bout in Liverpool, around an hour away from Manchester Airport.

Fury had distanced himself from Kinahan repeatedly in recent months, but if last month’s rejection is anything to go by, it is expected Fury will remain banned from entering the US. This is not a certainty however, as circumstances may have changed since June 17th. Time will tell how this will effect his possible run in the WWE, but would have no issue attending Clash At The Castle in September.
