WWE reportedly has big plans for Danhausen should New York Knicks win NBA title
WWE reportedly has big plans should the New York Knicks win the NBA championship.
WWE’s Danhausen “uncursed” the team back in April, and they are now one win away from their first NBA title since 1973.
According to a report from Fightful Select on Saturday, WWE is already discussing how to potentially use Danhausen at next month’s Saturday Night’s Main Event, which is scheduled for the Knicks’ home arena of Madison Square Garden in New York on July 18, should the Knicks win.
The report also notes that the company is brainstorming additional “content and merch possibilities” for Danhausen at Fanatics Fest, which is also scheduled for that weekend.
One source reportedly noted that WWE expects to make Danhausen a “fixture” of promotion in the New York area should the Knicks win the championship.
Game 5 of the NBA Finals takes place on Saturday, June 13 in San Antonio. If the Spurs win, the series will head back to New York for Game 6 on Tuesday, June 16. If necessary, Game 7 would take place on Friday, June 19 in San Antonio.
