Mike Tyson, Henry Cejudo, Rashad Evans, Vitor Belfort appear at All Elite Wrestling show
All Elite Wrestling may have its unique version of The Four Horsemen.
During Wednesday's edition of AEW Dynamite, 53-year-old "Iron" Mike Tyson, who has recently teased a return to the boxing ring, resumed a feud with former WWE and AEW champion Chris Jericho that started a decade ago:
Tyson wasn't alone on Wednesday, nor was he pretending to be part of Jericho's "Inner Circle" faction.
Among Tyson's posse were former UFC bantamweight champion Henry Cejudo, UFC Hall of Famer Rashad Evans and ONE Championship competitor and mixed martial arts icon Vitor Belfort:
Tyson and Jericho nearly came to blows before they were separated as part of the show-closing angle.
Earlier this week, the UFC stripped Cejudo of his title/Cejudo vacated the belt (depending on how you view the situation) after he announced his retirement following his victory over Dominick Cruz at UFC 249:
Most UFC insiders believe Cejudo's retirement was an attempt to earn a pay raise from the promotion.
At Saturday evening's AEW "Double or Nothing" pay-per-view, Tyson presented the AEW TNT championship belt to Cody Rhodes, the inaugural holder of that title. Per ESPN's Marc Raimondi, Belfort and Cejudo also attended that event.
Wednesday's pull-apart headlined by Tyson and Jericho suggests the two will be involved in a future AEW match. It's not yet known if the three mixed martial artists who were also in the ring will take part in that bout.
