Danhausen & a mini clone defeat The Miz & Kit Wilson at WWE Backlash
Danhausen’s mystery tag team partner was…a mini.
When it was time to reveal Danhausen’s mystery opponent on Saturday during Backlash, Danhausen’s cloning machine from SmackDown emerged. When the chamber door opened, a mini version of Danhausen came out, which caused Danhausen’s opponents The Miz and Kit Wilson to become elated. Although the two men were stronger than their smaller opponent, the mini Danhausen showcased some excellent lucha-style offense, surprising both.
At one point, the Danhausen clone re-entered the machine. The cloning device made noises and when the chamber door re-opened more minis arrived, overwhelming Miz and Wilson. Miz tried to use a fire extinguisher at one point, but instead set it on himself due to being cursed. The mini-hausen wiped out Wilson with a dive, allowing Danhausen to connect with a kick to The Miz for the win.
Who was the mystery tag team partner?
Bryan Alvarez is reporting that Mascarita Dorada from AAA was Danhausen’s main tag team partner.
He additionally notes that Danhausen face painting booths will be set up at future WWE events.
A mystery tag team partner
Danhausen has been feuding with both The Miz and Wilson for weeks, with the turning point coming a few weeks ago in an in-ring segment. The Miz initially seemed interested in becoming Danhausen’s mentor, but it ended up being a trap as both Miz and Wilson laid out Danhausen. SmackDown GM Nick Aldis then told Danhausen he could face the two at Backlash, but would need a tag team partner. Danhausen came up with the idea for a clone after The Miz told him the only way he’d find a tag team partner is if he cloned himself.
