Danhausen Puts a Curse on Stephen A. Smith

Danhausen crashed ESPN’s First Take, where he interacted with host Stephen A. Smith during a promotional segment for WrestleMania 42.

The segment featured Danhausen responding to Smith’s on-air “rude” comments. As a result, Danhausen put his signature “curse” on Smith, who appeared surprised during the live exchange.

“However, you have been very, very, very rude to Danhausen, so unfortunately, you are cursed.”

The WWE star is not currently scheduled for a match at WrestleMania 42. However, reports indicate he might be involved in an in-stadium segment during the event weekend. No official details about the segment have been confirmed.

Additional promotional activity has included a branded blimp appearance featuring the star, which has generated visibility ahead of WrestleMania 42.
