Danhausen, Triple H comment on WWE debut
Both Triple H and Danhausen are speaking out following the latter’s WWE debut.
During a backstage interview on the Elimination Chamber post-show, Triple H commented on Danhausen’s WWE debut, which took place earlier in the night.
“Michael Cole got a nice bucket of teeth. I think we’re in for a fun time…whatever it is, it’s gonna be a blast,” he said.
Danhausen later took to social media to confirm that he is, in fact, alive.
“Danhausen is ALIVE and back inside your television,” he wrote.
The longtime AEW talent ended up being in a crate that had been seen in recent weeks both on Raw and SmackDown, with a note on the box saying it was not to be opened until the Elimination Chamber. The crate opened on Saturday to reveal a coffin. Dancers wearing Danhausen’s face paint emerged from the coffin then Danhausen himself. They all ended up making their way to the ring as Danhausen posed for the crowd. The lights then went out and when they came back on, everyone was gone.
Danhausen’s AEW contract had been frozen for some time, having not wrestled for the company or ROH since 2024. His contract was extended last year against his wishes. On Friday, he gave indications that he had finally been freed from his contract, with his profile being removed from AEW’s website the following day.
