WWE attempted to bring in WWE Celebrity Hall of Famer and all-time boxing great Mike Tyson to take part in this weekend’s Summerslam, PWInsider.com has confirmed.
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.
PWInsider.com is told that WWE’s attempts to lock in Tyson were unsuccessful. There is no word yet who may be voicing over the opening for Summerslam in Tyson’s place.
My Take:
- Tyson would have been good but this doesn’t seem like a big deal.
