In the weeks leading up to the Elimination Chamber premium live event back in March, WWE debuted a mystery crate that got the wrestling world talking. When the crate was finally opened Danhausen emerged to a mixed reaction from the fans in Chicago.
While talking about Danhausen’s debut on Busted Open Radio, Kit Wilson claimed that there were a lot of people backstage who weren’t too fond about the idea of Danhausen taking a spot on a premium live event.
“I was there in Chicago for his debut, and I think that gave us a lot of question marks. It was a lot of people that enjoyed it. There was a lot of people that didn’t. Again, that’s the beautiful thing about this company, about this program is that we all get to have our own opinion.
Danhausen came in and there was a lot of us backstage that didn’t feel too fond about him coming in on a pay-per-view, on a PLE, maybe taking our spots.”
Even though Danhausen’s debut left some people unhappy and confused there’s no denying that he has taken WWE by storm in recent months. Danhausen has become one of the most popular stars on the roster, and one of the highest merchandise sellers in the company. One way or another it doesn’t seem that his popularity is going to slow down anytime soon.
