Danhausen set for AEW in-ring debut against Tony Nese on Dynamite
Danhausen will make his AEW in-ring debut on this week’s Dynamite.
AEW president Tony Khan announced on Twitter that Danhausen will face Tony Nese in his first match for the promotion on Wednesday’s show.
The bout was set up on last week’s AEW programming, with Nese calling out Danhausen in a backstage promo, then followed up with an in-ring segment where Danhausen asked Hook to be in his corner for the match, but Hook declined.
The much-anticipated in-ring debut of the very nice/very evil @DanhausenAD is set for TOMORROW vs #PremierAthlete @TonyNese LIVE on #AEWDynamite! Will Nese be a hometown hero on Long Island, or will Danhausen curse him? Don’t miss Dynamite on @TBSNetwork tomorrow @ 8pm ET/7pm CT! pic.twitter.com/hmloYlici6
