Mike Tyson Teases WWE Match With Logan Paul
Mike Tyson vs. Logan Paul in WWE?
May 2, 2023
While Logan Paul has previously called out Mike Tyson for a boxing match, Iron Mike believes a clash between the two men inside a professional wrestling ring would be more fitting.
Speaking with Forbes, Tyson revealed he would be interested in facing Logan Paul in a WWE match.
"Have you ever seen me wrestle before? I would do it! I would kick his [expletive] ass, yes I would do it. Even though I love him, though (laughs). This is what I found out about WrestleMania: Everybody says 'that's fake, that's fake.' But the cheque is real. Deep down inside - don't let [WWE] know - I would do this for free," Tyson said.
Mike Tyson has only ever had one pro wrestling match, when he teamed with Chris Jericho to take on D-Generation X on a January 2010 episode of WWE Raw. Tyson would turn on Jericho during the match, reaffirming his allegiance to DX in the process.
This would ultimately lead to a confrontation between Jericho and Tyson in All Elite Wrestling 10 years later and they were scheduled to face off at All Out 2020 but plans for the match ultimately fell through. Tyson was later accepted as an honorary member of the Inner Circle and he last appeared on AEW programming in November 2022 when he was the special guest commentator on an episode of Rampage.
Logan Paul has been wrestling for WWE since 2022's WrestleMania 38. He has established himself as one of the company's top stars in high-profile matches against The Miz, Roman Reigns, and Seth Rollins.
