Danhausen appeared on the Stephen A. Smith Show on June 17 to discuss his rising profile. He addressed his status in wrestling and beyond following his association with the New York Knicks.
Danhausen said he made his name prior to joining WWE and now benefits from the company's support. "I think that's why Danhausen's at the WWE. Because Danhausen has made Danhausen a thing prior to that, and then he came there, and now he has the backing of the biggest company of the world of wrestling and entertainment," he stated.
He explained his signature jar of teeth as a prop for visual effect. "I carry a jar of teeth that are my enemies' teeth. Sometimes I pour them in my other enemies' teeth and I kick them. It is a nice visual sensation for the crowd," Danhausen said. He also confirmed he refers to himself in the third person to ensure the name sticks in people's minds.
The wrestler noted his merchandise sales, including Knicks tie-ins, and claimed he is the most popular wrestler worldwide. He clarified that a threat to John Cena at WrestleMania 42 was intended as a joke.
