Mike Tyson is All Elite.

Well, sort of: the promotion has announced that the former heavyweight boxing champion of the world will be in the house at Double Or Nothing on 23 May, where he will present the new AEW TNT Championship to either Lance Archer or Cody.

AEW broke the news during last night's episode of Dynamite. This won't be the first time 'Iron Mike' has attended an AEW show, however, as he was backstage at last year's Double Or Nothing, with the promotion releasing footage afterwards:-

The news comes just days after Cody had teased linking up with Tyson.

Tyson recently made headlines when a clip of him showing off his ridiculous hand-speed went viral, hinting at a return. He is now 53 years old and last fought back in 2005.

The Cody vs. Archer feud was developed in last night's opening segment, which started with Jake 'The Snake' Roberts cutting a promo on 'The American Nightmare' and wife Brandi, whom he humiliated last week. Cody burst into the arena with his truck and a brawl broke out, leading to Archer and Roberts taking a powder and the AEW EVP standing tall.
