WWE Attempted To Hire Iron Mike Tyson For SummerSlam

This Saturday WWE is holding SummerSlam at Alleignt Stadium in Las Vegas Nevada. WWE is doing everything and pulling out all the stops to make this show huge, as recently they announced that they have tapped DJ Valentino Khan as the musical guest when it was reported that Cardi B had to pull out of the gig due to her recent announcement of her pregnancy.

One person that the company tried to get but wasn’t successful at was Iron Mike Tyson. According to PW Insider, the WWE wanted him to do voice-over work for SummerSlam to open up the show with a video package, but that didn’t happen.

WWE plans called for Tyson to be the voiceover artist for opening video package for Saturday’s Summerslam PPV, which we are told will be built around WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns vs. John Cena.

It is unclear why the attempts were unsuccessful, But he didn’t take the gig for some reason. It may have something to do with Tysons recent workings with AEW although that has not been confirmed. Tyson has previously appeared for WWE, including a match during Wrestlemania XIV where he was a special enforcer for Shawn Michales Vs Stone Cold.
