5 AEW wrestlers we can't wait to see Danhausen interact with

Recently, AEW fans were shocked to learn that one of the hottest free agents on the market, Danhausen, had signed with the company.

First debuting in 2013, the Very Nice, Very Evil One made a name for himself as a comedic, Nosferatu-like wrestler. Danhausen has regularly appeared in various wrestling promotions, known for placing "curses" on his opponents and comically dancing to the song "Tequila" in the ring.

Upon hearing that Danhausen had signed with AEW, numerous fans began ambitiously speculating about the various on-screen interactions Danhausen could have with the company's numerous wrestlers.

Here are 5 AEW performers we can't wait to see Danhausen meet at some point in the future.

#5. Matt Hardy

Matt Hardy is one of the most diverse, gifted, veteran talents working for All Elite. Since arriving in the company, he has humorously referenced how quickly he changes between his multiple past personalities.

Hardy's genius lies in his talent for portraying strange, comedic, or serious characters. No matter the kind of character Hardy plays, he's always able to entertain fans.

It's this ever-changing, comedic side to Hardy's gimmick that makes him such a fun, standout performer Danhausen could interact within AEW. They could have several in-ring or backstage interactions showing their comic timing.

#4. House of Black Leader, Malakai Black

Since arriving in AEW, Malakai Black has been a force to be reckoned with. On the surface, the idea of Danhausen appearing alongside someone as dark, twisted, and morose as The Dutchman is a strange one.

But it's Black's dour, more serious nature that would give any interaction he has with Danhausen such a comedic twist. The latter is, of course, known for appearing with somewhat more comedic wrestlers, so his interaction with Black would be an interesting clash of personalities between the two.

However, Danhausen and Malakai Black do have some very slight similarities. The latter is the more evil, non-comedic version of the former's character, preferring to break his opponents mentally. Danhausen accomplishes this more by playing various odd pranks on his opponents; Malakai does so more seriously, using fear as his main weapon.

#3. The Gunn Club

Danhausen has previously interacted with the Gunn Club, humorously referring to them as "the A** Boys" in reference to Billy Gunn's in-ring moniker, much to the Club's chagrin. However, as Danhausen has only recently signed to All Elite, fans are yet to see him interact with the Gunn Club on Dynamite or Rampage.

The Gunn Club remains a good tag team, currently doing great work as heels in AEW's tag division. We've already seen them have entertaining feuds with Sting and Darby Allin, as well as about to claim a title shot against the current World Tag Team Champions, Jurassic Express.

Danhausen's ability to interact with heels, embarrassing them repeatedly with his strange humor, is one of his main strengths. Any interactions he has with the Gunn Club would be a welcome sight for wrestling fans everywhere.

#2. AEW's other comedic act, The Dark Order

AEW's main comedic talent has come mainly from the Dark Order. After the unfortunate passing of Brodie Lee in 2020, the once-heel group became fan-favorite characters almost overnight. As part of their new presentation, they displayed increasingly humorous personalities more than ever.

As a comedic wrestler, the possibility of Danhausen meeting any one of the Dark Order's numerous members is endless. Just imagine what sort of on-screen shenanigans he'd get up to when encountering World Champion Hangman Page.

Or, imagine the epic showdown when the Very Evil One crosses paths with John Silver. Much like the famous Big Show-Brock Lesnar match on Smackdown, the ring could explode from so much on-screen charisma.

#1. Darby Allin and Sting

Sting and Darby Allin are no strangers to performing with comedic wrestlers despite their outwardly serious nature. For example, recall Sting's hilarious encounter with Orange Cassidy, with the Stinger receiving and trading some Freshly Squeezed hard-hitting kicks.

As Danhausen is a similarly comedic-style wrestler as Cassidy, the decision to have him one day appear alongside Sting and Darby Allin is a fitting one. Like Malakai Black, Danhausen's gimmick slightly mirrors the two wrestlers, which he could reference and comment upon when they finally meet.
