Mike Tyson On Why He Would Rather Work With WWE Than AEW

Mike Tyson is one of the most well known boxers to ever step foot in the ring and he also happens to be a WWE Hall of Famer. Tyson played a part in the Shawn Michaels vs. Steve Austin feud on the road to WrestleMania 14 and he was the man who counted the pin when Austin defeated Michaels on the Grandest Stage of Them All.

Tyson and The Undertaker rewatched his WrestleMania moment on the Hotboxin’ podcast and Tyson explained why working with WWE made him proud when he said, “They gave me so much money. I was in debt, too. I got a couple million dollars, I was so proud. Vince (McMahon) became my main man.”

He also went on to talk about why he would rather work with WWE than AEW when he said, “Tony Khan and those guys, these guys wanted to put me on the show and stuff before. I don’t care if they got more money. Vince put on the show, I’d rather go there, even though [AEW] pay more money.”

The Undertaker then shared his own thoughts on Tyson’s comments when he said, “I don’t blame you there. It’s going to get much more play. WWE is going to do it right.”
