Danhausen reflects on his short term partnership with HOOK.
In the lead up to AEW Double Or Noting 2022, Danhausen and HOOK found themselves as adversaries turned partners, as Danhausen repeatedly attempted to curse HOOK, who was impervious to the effects. The pair would eventually partner up, facing off with Tony Nese and Josh Woods at Double Or Noting 2022.
While speaking to Chris Van Vliet on Insight, Danhausen discussed Hookhausen, noting that he would love to see the team return.
"The first day I showed up, I was like, ‘HOOK, nice to meet you, I’m Danhausen.’ He told me he was a fan of mine, ‘Oh, cool. We have to get a photo.’ We took a photo together that first day I was there and it got a crazy amount of likes, at least for me at the time. It got 20 or 30,000 likes right away. I think someone saw that and went, ‘Maybe this could work.’ I think it humanized HOOK a little bit because he’s an ass beater. He’s Taz’s son, he’s an ass beater. It gave a humanizing to him, which helps people connect with him. I love HOOK. I would always team with HOOK. That would be great. I always say, ‘Just put me with HOOK again. Put me back with HOOK.’ It seemed loved and then it was, we were done with it. We should just do more of it because people liked it and I don’t think it was done yet. I would love to have HOOKhausen come back. I get asked constantly, ‘When it HOOKhausen coming back? Are you going to team with HOOK ever again?’ Online people too, there are still people with HOOKhausen stuff. It just worked for whatever reason."
Danhausen returned to Ring Of Honor at Death Before Dishonor, and elsewhere in the same interview, he discussed his return. You can read more about that here.
