As announced on tonight’s Dynamite episode, Boxing legend Mike Tyson will appear at All Elite Wrestling’s Double or Nothing pay-per-view on May 23.
Mike Tyson will present the AEW TNT Championship to the winner of Cody vs. Lance Archer. This isn’t the first time that Tyson has appeared at pro wrestling events. He famously was guest referee at WrestleMania XIV. In 2010, he teamed up with and betrayed Chris Jericho in a RAW match against Triple H & Shawn Michaels. He went into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2012.
Tyson is currently training for a boxing comeback, albeit in exhibition matches.
AEW announced some more matches for Double or Nothing. Chris Jericho reignited the Inner Circle vs. The Elite feud and challenged The Elite to a Stadium Stampede Match that will take place in a football stadium, likely at the Jacksonville Jaguars’ TIAA Bank Field. Matt Hardy’s Vanguard 1 showed up and notified the group The Elite had accepted the match.
On the Buy-In, it will be Best Friends vs. Private Party to determine the number one contenders for Kenny Omega and Hangman Page’s AEW World Tag Team Titles.
Also added to the PPV is Kris Statlander vs. Britt Baker. On tonight’s show, Baker and Statlander were involved in a Fatal 4-Way Match where Baker applied her submission, lockjaw, on Statlander and refused to let go.
Finally, it was announced Shida vs. Rose’s title match will now be a No DQ / No Count-Out match.
