#7 Mike Tyson brawls with Steve Austin (1998)

In the 90s, there was nobody as infamous in the world of sports as Mike Tyson. It was quite a coup that Vince McMahon managed to get Tyson to act as the special guest enforcer for the WrestleMania XIV main event between Shawn Michaels and Steve Austin.

One of the most enduring memories from the time is when Austin and Tyson got into a brawl leading into the big pay-per-view event, after the former got in the latter's face. This move established Austin as a top star, as he got into an altercation with 'the baddest man on the planet'. It launched his career to the stratosphere.

Eric Bischoff from WCW recalls this moment as a critical time in the Monday Night Wars. We're certain many fans remember it the very same way.

Little wonder then that Mike Tyson made it to the WWE Hall of Fame.
