– In the main event segment of tonight’s Dynamite, Vickie Guerrero introduced The Inner Circle for their Pep Rally. They give each other gifts and Chris Jericho says he wants Mike Tyson’s head on a platter. Jericho says he hasn’t forgotten the day Tyson knocked him out in 2010 on WWE RAW.
Mike Tyson then comes out with his posse (which includes UFC Legend Vitor Belfort & UFC Bantamweight Champion Henry Cejudo). Jericho tells Tyson to apologise for turning on him 10 years ago and this leads to Tyson ripping off his AEW T-Shirt and getting in Jericho’s face.
Jericho then pushes him and a huge brawl breaks out. The entire AEW locker room comes out to separate the two legends and Dynamite goes off the air with Jericho screaming “I want Tyson!!!”.
MIKE TYSON AND CHRIS JERICHO BRAWL ?
