Update On Danhausen And His AEW Status

Danhausen still has a dealhausen.

Fightful Select had reported earlier this year that Danhausen was in his contract year, and that specifically his deal would be up in July. Now that time has come and passed, and he’s still listed on the AEW roster page. That’s for good reason – he’s still with All Elite Wrestling, technically.

We’re told by AEW sources that Danhausen’s contract would have been up on July 1, however there were months added to Danhausen’s contract that take the contract well into 2026. It was believed that Danhausen had requested they not pick up the option, and that he was ready to leave the company after barely being used the last couple of years.

There have been no creative plans for Danhausen of late.
