Dennis Rodman and Mike Tyson are set to make waves at WrestleCon 2025 in Las Vegas. The two sports icons will appear as celebrity guests at the multi-day fan experience during one of wrestling's biggest weekends.
Fans got a taste of what's to come when a photo of Rodman and Tyson with Metta World Peace and Zab Judah in a luxury car gallery surfaced in August 2024. Courtside Buzzing shared the image, which got fans talking and excited about what these unpredictable athletes might be up to.
Not long after, Patina Collective released a video titled "Dennis Rodman & Mike Tyson Visit the World's Largest Mercedes Collection." The footage showed the duo filming together, further fueling speculation about their joint ventures.
The collaboration culminated in a Super Bowl commercial in early 2025. The ad was a loud, hilarious, and luxury-filled reunion that played on nostalgia and flair. It reminded everyone why these two have always been larger than life.
Rodman and Tyson are no strangers to the wrestling world. In the late '90s, Rodman brawled alongside Hulk Hogan and the nWo at WCW's Bash at the Beach. Tyson made his mark at WrestleMania XIV in 1998 as the special enforcer for the Shawn Michaels vs. Stone Cold match, helping launch the Attitude Era. The boxing legend was later inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame.
"We're thrilled to have Dennis Rodman and Mike Tyson join us at WrestleCon 2025," said a WrestleCon spokesperson. "Their presence will add an extra layer of excitement to an already action-packed weekend."
At WrestleCon, fans will get the chance to meet these legends in person. They'll be signing autographs and taking photos, likely stirring up just enough trouble to remind everyone why they've always been such captivating figures.
This isn't the first time Rodman and Tyson have teamed up. In 2013, they starred in a memorable Foot Locker ad where Tyson returned Evander Holyfield's ear, and Rodman asked for a ticket to North Korea. Adweek called it one of the most unforgettable campaigns of the decade.
Both men share a reputation for being unpredictable, unapologetic, and completely unforgettable. These traits have made them enduring figures in pop culture, even years after their athletic primes.
Fans heading to WrestleCon 2025 in Las Vegas should bring their cameras. With Rodman and Tyson in attendance, there's no telling what memorable moments might unfold. It's sure to be an event that wrestling fans won't want to miss.
