Mike Tyson to present TNT title at AEW Double or Nothing

Mike Tyson will be a part of Double or Nothing later this month.

It was announced tonight that Mike Tyson will be presenting the TNT championship at AEW Double or Nothing on May 23. Tyson’s name has been mentioned in recent weeks in pro wrestling circles, but not for AEW. Court Bauer recently sent out an invite to Mike Tyson to participate in a wrestling match, with proceeds going to charities. 

The finals of the TNT title tournament will take place at Double or Nothing. Cody and Lance Archer, the two finalists, confronted one another tonight on Dynamite. The feud has gotten personal over the course of the last few weeks, with Roberts putting a snake on Brandi after she was laid out by Britt Baker on last week’s Dynamite.

Cody came out in a truck to open tonight’s show, leading to a confrontation between Archer and Cody. Archer laid out Cody, but was eventually stopped by Roberts.

Tyson’s most infamous appearance in pro wrestling was back in 1998, when he appeared as a guest enforcer in the Shawn Micheals/Steve Austin WWE title match at WrestleMania XIV. He was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2012.
