Two icons of the industry sat down to hype up one of the most exciting matches on AEW Double or Nothing as Arn Anderson and Jake Roberts conducted a war of words, and almost more on AEW Dynamite.

In a surprising turn of events, Jake Roberts suggested that the two men themselves engage in a fight, sometime down the road. It was brought to the viewers attention that, somehow, Jake and Arn had never competed in the same match as each other- a fact that blew the minds of many watching. Two of the greatest to ever lace a pair of boots, and two of the best ever to hold a microphone, never made contact inside the squared circle.

However, as the coach for the Nightmare Family, Anderson was more focused on the match between their two clients and the man who will be presenting the AEW TNT Championship, 'Iron' Mike Tyson. Questioning if Jake is brave enough to 'throw his snake on him'- it is revealed that Tyson will be ringside during the match itself, adding a further dynamic to the bout.

The segment ended with both men having to be separated by referees and, whilst I seriously doubt we will ever seen Arn Anderson vs Jake Roberts take place in an AEW ring- it further built up the credibility of the match, showcasing the passion both men have and how important this match up is for all involved.
