In a memorable angle on Raw back in 2010, Chris Jericho was knocked out in storyline by Mike Tyson following a tag team match the pair lost to Triple H and Shawn Michaels.
Now the pair have reignited their ten-year grunge on last night’s episode of Dynamite, which left the wrestling world buzzing and grabbed mainstream media attention.
Mike Tyson had appeared at the Double or Nothing PPV this past Saturday and made a followup appearance for AEW by interrupting the Inner Circle’s pep rally. Tyson was accompanied by former FC stars Vitor Belfont, Henry Cejudo, and Rashad Evans, ended up getting into a pull-apart brawl, potentially setting up a future match between the pair.
Speaking to DigitailSpy.com, Chris Jericho would confirm he was happy with how the angle played out, saying:
Jericho would also indicate that a match between them is a real possibility by saying:
Wrestling is all shapes and sizes, and there’s a lot of different ways to do it. So if he’s agreeable to doing something with us, then we work to his strengths and eliminate his weaknesses. That’s what wrestling’s all about.Chris Jericho
If a match between Jericho and Tyson can come to fruition, it would likely do huge business for AEW and firmly establish the promotion as a threat to WWE’s current dominance of the wrestling industry. Although with Tyson receiving enormous offers to return to the boxing ring, it likely won’t come cheap.
