Donovan Danhausen (born August 17, 1990) is an American professional wrestler. He currently wrestles for All Elite Wrestling (AEW) and competes under the ring name Danhausen.
On January 26, 2022, Danhausen made his surprise debut with All Elite Wrestling (AEW) at Beach Break. He debuted during the Lights Out match between Adam Cole and Orange Cassidy. Cole pulled out a table out from under the ring that had Danhausen on it. AEW owner Tony Khan announced later in the night that Danhausen had signed an official contract to become a member of the AEW roster.[1]
Danhausen then tried and failed to curse Hook. On the May 6 episode of Rampage, he would try and get Hook to team with him against Tony Nese. Hook refused and Danhausen tried to become friends with Hook by giving him a bag of chips. Hook took the chips and leave.[2] On the May 11 episode of Dynamite, Danhausen made his AEW in-ring debut, losing in 32 seconds after an outside distraction from "Smart" Mark Sterling. After the match, Nese beat down Danhausen, but Hook ran in to make the save before shaking hands with Danhausen.[3] At the Buy In for Double or Nothing, Hookhausen (Danhausen and Hook) teamed up and defeated the team of Tony Nese and "Smart" Mark Sterling. This game Danhausen his first victory in AEW.[4]
