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.
Tyson was last seen in professional wrestling circles appearing for AEW. Tyson grew up a massive pro wrestling fan and was a major part of turning WWE's fortunes around when he refereed Steve Austin vs. Shawn Michaels at Wrestlemania 14.
