The past week has been an eventful one for AEW. The company welcomed New Japan Pro-Wrestling star Katsuyori Shibata back to its programming on Dynamite, in addition to an appearance from the great Rick Ross. On top of that, Chris Jericho called out Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson, who was ringside at the show, and Jeff Jarrett was introduced as a new company executive.
AEW will seek to carry its momentum into Friday night’s live Rampage, which will feature boxing legend Mike Tyson on commentary for the Orange Cassidy–Shibata match with the All-Atlantic championship on the line.
“It’s going to be a great night of wrestling, and it’s fitting to have a great champion in Mike Tyson back in Atlantic City, where he has a lot of history, help call the All-Atlantic championship match between Orange Cassidy and Shibata,” says Tony Khan, who is AEW CEO, GM and head of creative. “This is a dream match for both of the wrestlers.
