Tyson has a long history with professional wrestling, making a number of appearances, including his most famous at WWE's Wrestlemania in 1998. He was also a guest host at WWE's Raw in 2010. He was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame celebrity wing in 2012.
Given that history, it wouldn't be shocking if he played a bigger role at Double or Nothing than AEW is letting on.
