Mike Tyson Says He’d Love a WWE Return

Could Iron Mike be gearing up for another run in WWE?

In a new interview with Bleacher Report, former heavyweight boxing champ Mike Tyson didn’t hold back when asked if he’d be open to stepping back into the WWE universe. “Oh God, I would love to do that, that’s me at my childhood best, I had a great time,” Tyson said, clearly thrilled at the idea.

Tyson has a long history with WWE, dating back to the legendary Attitude Era. He was a key figure in the lead-up to WrestleMania 14, appearing as the special enforcer for the main event between Shawn Michaels and Stone Cold Steve Austin. Tyson famously delivered a knockout punch to Michaels and raised Austin’s hand, kicking off a new era in wrestling. He returned again in 2010 for another appearance, showing fans that he still had love for the squared circle.

Now, years later, Tyson sounds more than ready to lace up his gloves for one more WWE showdown—and he’s not looking to feud with just one person. When asked who he’d want to work with, Tyson kept it simple: “Shoot, all of them, let’s get a Battle Royal.”

In addition to his WWE appearances, Tyson has also dipped his toes into AEW, making a surprise debut there as well. But when it comes to where he made the biggest splash, his WWE legacy still hits the hardest.

With WWE increasingly leaning into celebrity involvement, especially during WrestleMania season, Tyson’s return might not be that far-fetched. He’s a legend in combat sports, a mainstream draw, and clearly still passionate about pro wrestling.
