Danhausen talks about getting a job with AEW while out of action with a broken leg.
Danhausen was recently interviewed on Buff Bagwell's YouTube channel. As part of the interview, Danhausen spoke about his first night in AEW and all of the top stars in the company helped him get hired.
Danhausen credited current WWE Champion Cody Rhodes with making sure that Danhausen was featured the first night he was backstage at an AEW event. This is despite the fact that Danhausen was out of action with an injury. Danhausen also stated that CM Punk, Orange Cassidy, and Chris Jericho vouched for him as well.
"I showed up to say hello to people. to their credit, Cody Rhodes said, 'Are you doing something tonight?' I said, 'No, my leg is broken.' He said, 'I'll make sure you're doing sure you're doing something tonight.' So, Cody, I think, had a little bit to do with helping me get a job there. I believe Pepsi Phil [CM Punk] had something to help with that. I believe Chris Judas [Chris Jericho] had something to help with that because I did his cruise. Orange Cassidy, I believe helped."
Danhausen joined AEW in January 2022. He first appeared at AEW Beach Break during Adam Cole's bout against Orange Cassidy. He hasn't wrestled for AEW since competing in the Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Battle Royal for a shot at the TNT Title at AEW Worlds End 2023: Zero Hour.
