Back in August 2024, a single photo had the sports world doing double takes. Dennis Rodman and Mike Tyson-two of the most unpredictable icons in sports history-were spotted together in a luxury car gallery alongside Metta World Peace and Zab Judah. The post, shared by Courtside Buzzing, lit up social media. Fans weren’t just curious. They were hungry for more.
That “more” came fast. A video from Patina Collective titled “Dennis Rodman & Mike Tyson Visit the World’s Largest Mercedes Collection” confirmed the two weren’t just hanging out-they were filming something big. Fast forward to early 2025, and that something turned out to be a loud, hilarious, luxury-drenched Super Bowl commercial. A reunion fueled by nostalgia and flair.
Over the top! Mike Tyson acts in the most bizarre way possible as part of a celestial video
Rodman and Tyson are back in Vegas and they’re headed to the ring (kind of)
Now the duo is making headlines again-this time not on TV, but in person. Las Vegas will host both Rodman and Tyson at WrestleCon 2025, where they’ll appear as celebrity guests. According to Wrestling Headlines, the two will be part of a multi-day fan experience during one of wrestling’s biggest weekends.
Tyson’s no stranger to the squared circle. He made history at WrestleMania XIV in 1998 as the special enforcer for the Shawn Michaels vs. Stone Cold match-an appearance that helped launch the Attitude Era. WWE later inducted him into their Hall of Fame. Rodman, meanwhile, had a headline-making stint with WCW in the late ’90s, most famously brawling alongside Hulk Hogan and the nWo at Bash at the Beach.
While neither is expected to wrestle, their appearance already has fans buzzing. They’ll be signing autographs, taking photos, and probably stirring up just enough trouble to remind everyone why they’ve always been larger than life.
And this isn’t even their first crossover. Remember that 2013 Foot Locker ad? Tyson shows up at Evander Holyfield’s house with the ear, Rodman asks for a one-way ticket to North Korea, and the whole thing plays like a fever dream you’d absolutely rewatch. Adweek later called it one of the most unforgettable campaigns of the decade.
Rodman and Tyson may come from different sports, but they share the same energy: unpredictable, unapologetic, and completely unforgettable. So if you’re heading to Vegas, you might want to pack more than just your fan gear-maybe bring your camera, too. You never know what these two will do next.
