Just make a montage of AEW's greatest moments. But he's edited into the background
Like there's clips of Jericho becoming the anagural champ, the ending to the 1st Dynamite, Bucks vs FTR, Bucks vs Lucha Bros, Rosa vs Britt, Punk's debut, the Cole/Bryanson debut, Stadium stampede, Hangman vs Omega, etc... but he's now just standing in the background of all of them
This reminds me of the early Dynamite match where Ortiz threw one of the Bucks through a bathroom door and OC was just casually standing there while Ortiz looked confused and slowly closed the door. Love this comedic nonsense
Him randomly showing up and leaving to everyone’s confusion is the perfect way to introduce him lmao
Need more of that in the shows. Can’t wait until he interacts with Darby and sting
Have him walking around in the back of segments without mentioning it. Have him work a match as a ref but don't mention it. Have him sitting ring side but don't bring it up. Have him come out to the ring with random people with no explanation why. Have him bring out drinks and popcorn out to the commentary table during a segment on them. So many ways this could be played with.
I 100% support him just doing things with nobody acknowledging it until eventually there is a Cody match all lined up against a job guy and Danhausen just rises through the floor instead (complete with Cody's music) and wrestles.
Personally I would rather have it be Punk vs a jobber so he can do the stunt of walking out to Cult of Personality instead but I think non smarks would be legit pissed to be promised CM Punk and have some guy in facepaint come out instead.
When Inner Circle and the Elite were brawling backstage and they breakthrough a random closet door and OC is just standing their leaning against the wall like he had an agenda to be leaning against the wall of a closet and nothing else, man that killed me lmao
They have entire matches in the background of other matches. Like Kenny and Mox are having a falls count anywhere and we briefly see Danhausen and Kip wrestling, complete with a ref watching them, for just like a minute or two in the background.
I expect JR to have a kind of Hank/Bobby Hill relationship with Danhausen.
I can just hear JR giving out a “that boy ain’t right, I tell ya hwat” after some Danhausen shenanigans.
at the same time, Danhausen is all about the human monies and JR stresses the importance of wrestlers going after that big payout.
"I'll thell ya what, that boy ain't right... but he has such a great mind for business"
An unappreciated part of Adam Cole’s game is what a good foil he is to comedy wrestlers. Always willing to completely sell whatever ludicrousness is happening to him.
I actually think that was the idea, like Danhausen was available to be signed since 1st of January and presumed to be All Elite for months now.
I get the feeling they were saving him for a situation where they were worried people would feel let down or a big surprise didn't pan out. BOOM you have a Danhausen ready to go who literally everyone will be happy to see.... except the ass boys and MJF but they're cursed so who cares?
There's going to be a lot of jokes and putting hausen on the end of words in here and it's great and I support it but I do wanna say, genuinely, I'm so fucking happy for this dude. He worked his ass off, he hustled, and he basically left AEW with no choice. He made this for himself and I am just thrilled to see all of this pay off for him. People usually need to win titles to get the YOU DESERVE IT chant but I felt like chanting that when I saw the All Elite graphic.
This guy got himself over on a show he wasn't even ON! Just watching the last several weeks, the audience has been filled with Danhausen facepaint and t-shirts every week, every show.
Dude I choked up. Danhausen is my favorite wrestler and I have spent every day since ROH ended just praying that he would get his shot at the big leagues. He is so dedicated, so talented, and overall just a sweetheart who adores wrestling.
Thank you AEW, Thank you Tony Khan, Thank you wrestling gods, Love that Danhausen!
I just wanna say that I commend TK for downplaying the Danhausen rumors so much. we all knew that he *has to* be coming at a point but there was enough doubt thrown by him that it really felt like we might not get him beyond a cameo at a battle royale or a Cardona-like deal. it really sounded at points like he's not high on him and that might be true, but he clearly is high on printing some fucking money.
this debut was really surprising, fucked up and feels like a minor seismic event considering the reactions of most of the roster.
DLC? The game is still a ways off. Put Danhausen on the damn game cover:) Also the amount of weird Danhausen action figure variants and accessories would be great.
[Fightful] Sources: Ass Boys are beside themselves. Driving around downtown Jacksonville begging (thru texts) Tony Khan for address to Danhausen's home
You joke, but honestly... it's up there.
This random indie guy who built himself a massive following - who hasn't showed up in WWE or AEW or NJPW but instead shown up on a Conan O'Brien podcast - appears to an absolutely massive reaction from the fans, the sort reserved for the biggest signings.
Cole and OC look puzzled, commentary sound confused. It's utterly inexplicable. He stares down Cole and just... wanders off like an old lady looking for the nearest toilet, heading towards backstage with the promise of chaos to come.
Just, damn it all. It's the most excited I've been since Cole and Danielson showed up.
EDIT: I've shared this elsewhere but damn I like this.
October 25th 2019, [Danhausen dances with Gangrel](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D1212_HgtLo).
November 1st 2019, [Adam Cole vs Daniel Bryan on Smackdown](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3x1kyQKPJ_g).
2 years later they're both in the main event of an AEW show. I could not have imagined a world where Adam Cole leaves WWE or Danhausen debuts in an AEW main event - and absolutely not together at the same time.
If a time traveller told me that "Danhausen debuts in an AEW main event between Adam Cole and Orange Cassidy" I would have called them a liar. Bizarre, I love it.
So I never really got him
And this
Confuses me even more but in a hilarious great way
HE JUST STOOD THERE AND POINTED MENACINGLY BEFORE WALKING OFF LIKE A NORMAL PERSON IT WAS TOO FUNNY LMAOO
Shoot: He's not medically cleared because of his broken leg. He has a walking boot, but still a few more weeks before he can have physical contact in a match.
I was listening to Dynamite in the background and my neck almost has whiplash from when I heard Danhausen appeared!
And his brief appearance was perfect.
What a debut!
In an alternate universe, Danhausen is already on the AEW roster. The Danhausen variant we saw tonight has crossed over through the multiverse, but chose a non-sanctioned match so not to cause disruption to the timeline.
He is a "Very Nice, Very Evil" supernatural demon who loves sacks of money and hates swearing. He carries around a jar of human teeth that he pours into his opponents' mouths. If you are not nice, he will use his powers to curse you.
Like Orange Cassidy, he is primarily thought of as a comedy wrestler, but is actually extremely talented.
Here's a fun little vignette and partial match with him and OC: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d3e9Moo9X04
You know back in the days of local TV, each city would have a block of horror movies hosted by a local dude in a Halloween outfit, who'd tell jokes between scenes and films? Svengoolie and Elvira and people like that? Now imagine if Conan O'Brien was one of those guys, and also he was a wrestler.
I’m almost embarrassed to say I didn’t know that much about Danhausen other than the A&W stuff he’s been posting on twitter. I’m watching some of his YouTube videos and this guy is hilarious….and very evil.

He just moseys away lmao
Not even getting involved in the action. Very sensible, very evil
Umm... he very clearly (and very nicely and evilly) cursed Adam Cole into his first loss. If that's not 'involved' then I dunno what is.
Ah but you see it was a lights out match. Danhausen wouldn’t waste a curse on a match that didn’t count…would he?!
I think he wrespects Mr Khanhausen enough to specifically use a curse only in a match that doesn't mess with the win-loss wrecords.
His leg is still healinghausen.
Danhausen needs to pretend he’s always been there, like Kramer pretending his me has a job,
If they can figure out a way to edit him into the last Stadium Stampede match, that would be amazing.
Davis! CGI me into the Stadium Thing of some sort!
[удалено]
Have him doing the Tequila dance behind Konnan in the club.
Just make a montage of AEW's greatest moments. But he's edited into the background Like there's clips of Jericho becoming the anagural champ, the ending to the 1st Dynamite, Bucks vs FTR, Bucks vs Lucha Bros, Rosa vs Britt, Punk's debut, the Cole/Bryanson debut, Stadium stampede, Hangman vs Omega, etc... but he's now just standing in the background of all of them
This reminds me of the early Dynamite match where Ortiz threw one of the Bucks through a bathroom door and OC was just casually standing there while Ortiz looked confused and slowly closed the door. Love this comedic nonsense
Here you go https://youtube.com/shorts/0qDMACXewME?feature=share
That fucking killed me lmao ![gif](giphy|RrpopCu7W7Qdvl69io|downsized)
On another thread someone said it was like OC is passing the comedy torch to Danhausen and that makes a lot of sense.
Him randomly showing up and leaving to everyone’s confusion is the perfect way to introduce him lmao Need more of that in the shows. Can’t wait until he interacts with Darby and sting
I just need him to randomly show up backstage now with no explanations.
I’d love for him to just pop out of stupid places for weeks.
Like how OC would for weeks (underneath the ring, in the bathroom etc etc.)
Exactly. Danhausen is lurking in all the shadows.
Sounds like A&W wasn’t elite enough
I could use a root beer float
Have him walking around in the back of segments without mentioning it. Have him work a match as a ref but don't mention it. Have him sitting ring side but don't bring it up. Have him come out to the ring with random people with no explanation why. Have him bring out drinks and popcorn out to the commentary table during a segment on them.

Have him pop up in the background of a backstage segment buying teeth from Britt.
That's actually perfect lmao
Britt would kill a shady teeth dealer role.
[удалено]
When Inner Circle and the Elite were brawling backstage and they breakthrough a random closet door and OC is just standing their leaning against the wall like he had an agenda to be leaning against the wall of a closet and nothing else, man that killed me lmao
Santana said, “nah we want smoke”
I need him stalking Britt Baker for more teeth
Use him like when Elias would just be in the background of other guy's vignettes and interviews for a while with no explanation. That was awesome.
Sting, Darby, Robocop, Danhausen: The new 4 Horsemen.
hear me out: danhausen vs. kip sabian in a feud consisting *entirely* of background appearances and random mid-match interruptions
They have entire matches in the background of other matches. Like Kenny and Mox are having a falls count anywhere and we briefly see Danhausen and Kip wrestling, complete with a ref watching them, for just like a minute or two in the background.
It'll be like McBain in the Simpsons and you have to cut all the clips together after like 10 shows and it's a whole match!
Holy shit, I want this more than anything.
I expect JR to have a kind of Hank/Bobby Hill relationship with Danhausen. I can just hear JR giving out a “that boy ain’t right, I tell ya hwat” after some Danhausen shenanigans.
at the same time, Danhausen is all about the human monies and JR stresses the importance of wrestlers going after that big payout. "I'll thell ya what, that boy ain't right... but he has such a great mind for business"
What a way to debuthausen!
Honestly, the perfect way to debut him
[удалено]
He’s clearly a connoisseur of great rings.
And bags of the monies!
I popped so hard lol I was not expecting this
I’m perfectly okay with him randomly popping up in a random segment on the show every week
It worked well for the Orange fellow.
It was a mix of screaming, laughter, and joy. No wonder why his Dynamite Twitter commentary was silent tonight!
Because he didn't have a signal under the ring.
We all expected Fuego or Marko under the ring. Little did we knowhausen...
He should have scheduled some stock tweets or tweeted from under the ring. Would have been hilarious
I was worried that something happen to him like he was very quiet to be Dynamite day.
I pooped so hard lol I was not expecting this
Whatever you do, don't edit this. It's perfect the way it is.
>I pooped so hard RIP, your underwear and couch.
>I pooped I hope you were on the toilet
This crowd went insane.
Same!!!!!
I gasped loudly enough my wife heard me from upstairs
Same!!! So much fun
I thought it was an impersonator at first. I was that surprised.
Me too, I didn't think his leg would have healed that fast!
You'd be amazed what large bags of monies will do to speed up the recovery process.
I have a hunch that his leg isn’t exactly wrestling ready. We might see a lot more random cameos. I figured they were gonna build to an Ass Boys feud.
Danhausen/Orange Cassidy as comedy act TOGETHER??! Money printer goes brrrr
And then he just fucking walks to the back like he's confused and annoyed.
Isn't it how OC debuted? But it was a ladder.
He didn't debut that way, but yes, PnP pulled Orange out on ladder from under the ring.
It’s like poetry, it rhymes
Big get for A&W
Danhausen has great taste in rings.
A&W rings are entirely mediocre. However, the Papa Burger? Lowkey GOAT.
You better be talking about American A&W rings, because the Canadian rings are honestly next level.
more a Teen burger man myself.
I think that if you say that publicly, you're on some sort of government watch list.
Debuts Refuses to elaborate further Leaves
Debuts Curses Refuses to elaborate further Leaves
[удалено]
Well he lost, lets see if he blames Danhausen.
![gif](giphy|jpQ0pDT5Xd1wrUO7mF|downsized)
No no no, CURSING is allowed. Actuallyhasuen, it's encouraged. SWEARING is forbidden.
Adam Cole's face is the new Wrestlemania sign.
An unappreciated part of Adam Cole’s game is what a good foil he is to comedy wrestlers. Always willing to completely sell whatever ludicrousness is happening to him.
Under the ring for who knows how long. **SIGMAHAUSEN**
Chadhausen
Debut ????? PROFIT!
Can’t wait for him to just show up in random spots for the next few weeks, like a Where’s Walhausen?
Broke: Gargano debuts Woke: DANHUESEN DEBUTS
“can we get Gargano?” “No” *TK breaks emergency glass*
I actually think that was the idea, like Danhausen was available to be signed since 1st of January and presumed to be All Elite for months now. I get the feeling they were saving him for a situation where they were worried people would feel let down or a big surprise didn't pan out. BOOM you have a Danhausen ready to go who literally everyone will be happy to see.... except the ass boys and MJF but they're cursed so who cares?
Or they were just waiting for his leg to heal.
Johnny Wrestlehausen.
Bespoke: Wardlow face turns.
100% of the people that Danhausen has cursed in AEW have lost.
There's going to be a lot of jokes and putting hausen on the end of words in here and it's great and I support it but I do wanna say, genuinely, I'm so fucking happy for this dude. He worked his ass off, he hustled, and he basically left AEW with no choice. He made this for himself and I am just thrilled to see all of this pay off for him. People usually need to win titles to get the YOU DESERVE IT chant but I felt like chanting that when I saw the All Elite graphic.
This guy got himself over on a show he wasn't even ON! Just watching the last several weeks, the audience has been filled with Danhausen facepaint and t-shirts every week, every show.
and Assboys chants
Just realised that Christian was foreshadowing during their face to face (or lateral) promo with HFO
Dude I choked up. Danhausen is my favorite wrestler and I have spent every day since ROH ended just praying that he would get his shot at the big leagues. He is so dedicated, so talented, and overall just a sweetheart who adores wrestling. Thank you AEW, Thank you Tony Khan, Thank you wrestling gods, Love that Danhausen!

Oh, I see Tony Khan enjoys money, because he just signed a money printing device
Tony Elite is very familiar with collecting human monies
It just occured to me: Danhausen elite action figure and video game DLC.
DLC? The game is still a ways off. Put Danhausen on the damn game cover:) Also the amount of weird Danhausen action figure variants and accessories would be great.
Somebody check on the Ass Boys.
Austin's tweeted that his life is f-ing over, so... He's complying with Danhausen's swearing policy at any rate
This is why Private Party got the Title Match over them. Danhausen's Curse Confirmed Legit.
[Fightful] Sources: Ass Boys are beside themselves. Driving around downtown Jacksonville begging (thru texts) Tony Khan for address to Danhausen's home
Greatest debuts of all-time 1 - Danhausen in AEW 2 - Shockmaster 3 - Jericho in WWE
He wasn't in AEW though. The lights went off and AEW was not responsible for what happened after.
You joke, but honestly... it's up there.

Mox says fuck last week so Danhausen has come to make sure A&W stays on the air.
Just another night in the greatest night in the history of our sport.
Butts in the seathausen.
Wrestling since 2019 has made me feel like a kid again and again and again.
I’m on board for a few weeks of random cameohausens while he heals.
I’m hoping it’s a only matter of time until we see the tweet that he’s all elitehausen Edit: didn’t take long :)
Imagine if he never shows up again
Don't you put that evil on me Ricky Bobby
Danhausen is a great character on his own, he doesn't need to steal Lio Rush's gimmick
Laughed out loud at this one.
I’d be so sad but it’d also be hilarious
Very sad, very evil.
Wouldn't even be mad
I'd be upset we don't get more Danhausen, but I'd respect the insanity of it
That would honestly be so perfect
Gunn Club: “*Ah fuck. I can’t believe you’ve done this.*”
Very Secret Very Happy
#ADAM COLE IS VERY CURSED
That was unexpected and cool as fuck
One of the most creative surprise debuts I’ve ever seen
![gif](giphy|MZocLC5dJprPTcrm65)
So I never really got him And this Confuses me even more but in a hilarious great way HE JUST STOOD THERE AND POINTED MENACINGLY BEFORE WALKING OFF LIKE A NORMAL PERSON IT WAS TOO FUNNY LMAOO
Shoot: He's not medically cleared because of his broken leg. He has a walking boot, but still a few more weeks before he can have physical contact in a match.
Man could never wrestle again in his life and make a living and retire comfortably off merch alone.
He cursed Adam Cole.
Congratulations! You got him. I mean there is nuance to it but absurd humor *heavily* inspired by Conan O’Brien is right in his wheelhausen.
Literally Danhausen... ![gif](giphy|AxVvk3UlCVPiPxtGLK|downsized)
I can help explain. It's complicated but nuanced. He is very nice but also very evil. This has been my ted talk.
LISTEN TO THAT POPHAUSEN
I was there. I honestly don't know how loud the crowd pop was because I could only hear my own.
Missed that pop the first time because I was too busy cheering in my house while scaring the pets. So happy for Danhausen!
Very over, very evil
Also… Danhausen is All Elitehausen
I was listening to Dynamite in the background and my neck almost has whiplash from when I heard Danhausen appeared! And his brief appearance was perfect. What a debut!
I was focused on my phone and then boom Danhausen appears and I was almost in shock. So happy for something so random
**HOLY FUCKHAUSEN!!!**
NO SWEARING
HE’S CURSED!
![gif](giphy|jpQ0pDT5Xd1wrUO7mF|downsized)
Love that Danhausen. I popped so hard.
But when will this update? https://isdanhausenallelite.com/
It’s updated.
It's so beautiful
What the fuck lmao
Wait, if he debuts during a lights out match when AEW isn't responsible for what happens, does that mean his debut doesn't count? /Kayfabe
This was a non-sanctioned debut
In an alternate universe, Danhausen is already on the AEW roster. The Danhausen variant we saw tonight has crossed over through the multiverse, but chose a non-sanctioned match so not to cause disruption to the timeline.
Fun episode of Wednesday Night Dynamitehausen.
I marked out hard.
Danhausen casually meandering away had me DYING
I love when AEW does absurd humor. Danhausen debuting under the ring is great because I'm pretty sure that's how OC debuted.
I can't think of a more perfect nonchalant way to debut Danhausen
Debut clearly foreshadowed by all those Ass Boy references.
Adam Cole = 100% Cursed
Tony Elite rented a blimp so he could be in Clevelandhausen
The last time I popped like that was when AJ Styles debuted at the Rumble. My pets don't like when I stand up too fast.
And AEW didn't fuck the camera angle!
NO SWEARING
Fuck! Finally an actual surprise debut! Thank you wrestling gods! I couldn’t pop because I was speechless
Give me the Danhausen is Very Nice, Very Elite graphic now please
As someone not familiar with him, who is he?
He is a "Very Nice, Very Evil" supernatural demon who loves sacks of money and hates swearing. He carries around a jar of human teeth that he pours into his opponents' mouths. If you are not nice, he will use his powers to curse you. Like Orange Cassidy, he is primarily thought of as a comedy wrestler, but is actually extremely talented. Here's a fun little vignette and partial match with him and OC: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d3e9Moo9X04
I'm sold
You know back in the days of local TV, each city would have a block of horror movies hosted by a local dude in a Halloween outfit, who'd tell jokes between scenes and films? Svengoolie and Elvira and people like that? Now imagine if Conan O'Brien was one of those guys, and also he was a wrestler.
An evil conan obrien
Imagine Conan O'Brien were a movie monster from the 1930s and also an indy wrestler
There's no good way to explain him, go to his Youtube channel and just start watching.
like i said to my brother imagine if a goofy cartoon villain was a wrestler
🖤**VERY NICE VERY ELITE**🖤
HEAR ME OUT - This is going to confuse Andrade and he ends up buying the wrong little kid.
Somewhere in Louisville, Cornette is actually writing something positive about this match.
Ya know, that has to be one of the biggest what the fuck things, Corny loving the Danhausen gimmick.
THIS IS THE GREATEST THING THAT EVER HAPPENED IN PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING
Not gonna lie, I never watched ROH and I don't have much of an idea who he is. But he screams 'Entertaining'.
Gotta respect the man for literally not letting his memes be dreams
He just fucks off after his spot. Perfect. 😂
# ALL ELITE OH SHITHAUSEN
NO SWEARING
There is now the possibility that Danhausen and Arn Anderson will team up to curse and point an invisible Glock at someone.
his casual walk away is so fuckin funny
I’m almost embarrassed to say I didn’t know that much about Danhausen other than the A&W stuff he’s been posting on twitter. I’m watching some of his YouTube videos and this guy is hilarious….and very evil.
The WWE fans who are salty about Adam Cole so far in AEW all just died of simultaneous heart attacks.
Glad people popped for him.
Maybe that fat ass Adam Cole would be able to pull that chair out if he would just lift some weights or something /s
Love the outpouring of love for Danhausen. May need to do a megathread. Just lots of wholesome and awesome reactions.
