Danhausen had a lot to say when he hit the red carpet during WrestleMania week, and he didn’t waste time claiming a huge milestone for himself.
While speaking with Denise Salcedo at the 2026 WWE Hall of Fame Red Carpet, Danhausen was asked how it felt to be part of the big night. Instead of giving a serious answer, he leaned into his usual humor and joked that just showing up meant he already earned Hall of Fame status.
After stepping onto the carpet and taking part in interviews and photos, Danhausen explained that the moment alone was enough for him to consider himself among wrestling’s greats.
“It feels pretty good. I think because I've walked this, I'm a Hall of Famer now. Yeah, I pretty—yes, so it's on record. I'm a Hall of Famer. Walked the red carpet, doing photo ops, doing interviews. Danhausen, Hall of Famer.”
The moment fit perfectly with Danhausen’s style. He’s known for mixing comedy with confidence, and even in a setting filled with wrestling legends, he stayed true to his character. Instead of talking about nerves or pressure, he turned the spotlight into a joke that fans would expect from him.
WrestleMania week is full of serious moments and emotional speeches, but Danhausen found a way to stand out by making the night fun. His reaction showed that even quick red carpet interviews can turn into memorable moments when the right personality is involved.
Danhausen may not have an official Hall of Fame ring yet, but he made it clear he already feels like he belongs in that conversation — at least in his own way.
Do you think Danhausen could one day earn a real WWE Hall of Fame spot, or is this exactly the kind of humor that makes his character work?
