Danhausen To Make AEW In-Ring Debut On 5/11 Episode Of Dynamite

Another match has been made official for the May 11 episode of AEW Dynamite.

Just one day before the show, AEW President Tony Khan announced that Danhausen will make his in-ring debut for the promotion against Tony Nese. The Premier Athlete challenged Danhausen to a match last week, complaining about the amount of screen time Danhausen is given.

In an attempt to procure backup for the match, Danhausen presented HOOK with a bag of chips as a gift, but The Cold-Hearted handsome Devil shoved Danhausen to the ground. Nese has been attacking both men over recent weeks so it remains to be seen if HOOK will insert himself into the match and cancel out the advantage Nese has of having Mark Sterling in his corner.

The updated card for Wednesday's show can be seen below.
