AEW Announcement:
Boxing Legend Mike Tyson Returns to AEW DYNAMITE This Wednesday
-- Tomorrow is Tysonâs First Appearance in front of Live AEW Crowd --
April 6, 2021 â Ahead of this Wednesdayâs action-packed episode of AEW DYNAMITE, All Elite Wrestling announced that boxing legend Mike Tyson will be returning for an appearance during its live show on TNT.
No stranger to the squared circle, Tyson appeared at the DOUBLE OR NOTHING PPV event in May 2020, followed by a memorable AEW DYNAMITE episode where he brawled with Chris Jericho and The Inner Circle. Unlike last May, when there were no fans in attendance at Dailyâs Place in Jacksonville, Fla., fans will now have the opportunity to see Tyson in-person this Wednesday night in a safe, live event setting.
âThereâs nothing better than an impassioned, live wrestling crowd. Since August 2020, weâve provided safe, outdoor shows at Dailyâs Place, with zero reported transmissions amongst our fans, and weâre so appreciative of the amazing fans who have been joining us week after week,â said Tony Khan, CEO, GM and Head of Creative of AEW. âItâs been incredible for our wrestlers, and for those watching at home, to hear the live reactions. This includes historic events like Kenny Omega winning the AEW World Title, Stingâs surprise arrival, Shaq teaming with Jade Cargill against Cody Rhodes and Red Velvet, The Young Bucks and Darby Allinâs respective championship wins at FULL GEAR, and so many other magic moments. Likewise, Mike Tyson always commands a massive ovation and the attention of fans worldwide. Iâm excited for everyone here in Jacksonville, and for those watching on TNT and around the world, to see what Mike Tyson has in store for AEW.â
Last seen in the boxing ring in November 2020, Tyson competed in an eight-round exhibition match against Roy Jones Jr., which ended in a split draw. Tyson joins a stacked lineup on this weekâs DYNAMITE, including Darby Allin defending the TNT Championship against JD Drake, #1 ranked wrestler Hangman Page defending that position against the surging âPlatinumâ Max Caster, and Jon Moxley teaming with AEW World Tag Team Champions The Young Bucks to take on AEW World Champion Kenny Omega and The Good Brothers.
Tickets for Wednesdayâs show are on-sale at AEWTIX.com, and AEWâs stringent COVID-19 policies for fans will remain intact for this event.
As AEW continues to kick open the âForbidden Doorâ with industry-wide cooperation and co- promotion, along with huge surprises and a deep talent roster that is delivering the best matches and most entertaining moments in professional wrestling today, be sure to tune into AEW DYNAMITE this Wednesday at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT live on TNT.
