Last Friday, 58-year-old Mike Tyson returned to the professional boxing scene for the first time in 20 years as he took on Jake Paul, who is just a little over three decades his junior. The fight between the two boxers took place at the AT&T Stadium in Texas, and Jake was able to pull off a unanimous decision win.
After the bout, Tyson, in the post-fight interview, which took place inside the ring, expressed his desire to fight Jake's brother and WWE Superstar Logan Paul. While the Heavyweight legend's call-out received a few pops, this match would be better off in World Wrestling Entertainment and not boxing.
A top AEW star just called one of his colleagues 'spoiled' and 'narcissistic' HERE.
After all, at 58, Tyson looked nothing like his former self, and another boxing fight would not make much sense for him and his legacy. Hence, in this article, we will explore options of how Tyson vs Logan could take place in WWE:
#4. Mike Tyson vs Logan Paul (Boxing Rules Match)
At SummerSlam 2023, Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler clashed in what was dubbed an MMA Rules Match. While the rivalry and the bout between the two women failed to generate the response WWE desired, the promotion could once again try something similar with Mike Tyson and Logan Paul.
In one of the upcoming premium live events, the Stamford-based promotion could book a Boxing Rules Match between the two men. Triple H and his team could also introduce a belt only for this fight to make things more interesting and generate higher viewerships.
#3. Mike Tyson vs Logan Paul on Netflix
Netflix made its boxing debut with the Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson extravaganza, and it seems it did well. As reports suggest 60 million viewers tuned in to the event live. After this blockbuster debut in the sport, the global streaming giant will now enter the world of professional wrestling as RAW is set to be telecast live on the platform from January 6, 2025.
Hence, in what will be the premiere of RAW on Netflix, the Stamford-based promotion could book a match between Tyson and the former United States Champion as a special attraction. Since the boxing legend has already worked with the streaming platform and Paul is a WWE Superstar, Triple H might not have a lot of problem making this bout.
#2. Mike Tyson vs Logan Paul could face off in a Tag Team Match
Since making his professional wrestling debut, Logan Paul has been able to impress the WWE Universe with his speed and athleticism inside the ring. Since his pace in the squared circle might be an issue for Mike Tyson, WWE could book this match to be a Tag Team contest.
In this match, Logan could team up with his brother Jake Paul, while Tyson could team up with a WWE Superstar or a special attraction like Francis Ngannou, who is close to the boxing legend.
Watching a match involving so many big names would surely be an interesting prospect for wrestling fans.
#1. Mike Tyson vs Logan Paul at WrestleMania 41
After last year's spectacular Show of Shows, Triple H and WWE will be under pressure to deliver an even better WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas. The best way The Game can ensure fans enjoy The Showcase of the Immortals next year is by booking some big names to appear.
A match between Tyson and Logan Paul could very well tick that box. Since both names will bring additional non-wrestling fans along with them, it would make sense for such a match to take place at WrestleMania 41.
While all the scenarios are speculative, it'll be interesting to see if a match between the two popular global stars comes to fruition. And if it does, then what plans will Triple H have up his creative sleeve?
