Following the win at Royal Rumble 1998, Austin was the no.1 contender for the WWF Championship against Shawn Michaels. However, just before the WrestleMania XIV, Vince McMahon introduced Tyson as the special guest referee for the bout.
Additionally, McMahon referred to Tyson as the “baddest man on the planet.”McMahon’s statement enraged Austin. He interrupted McMahon in the middle and flicked his finger at Tyson on the ring.

During the bout, Tyson donned a DX t-shirt to signify his opposition to Austin. However, after Austin defeated Michaels and won the WWF championship, Tyson held Austin’s 3:16 t-shirt, which stunned the entire arena.
