What started out as a gamble with Danhausen uncursing the
New York Knicks in the NBA Playoffs turned out to be
complete madness as the Knicks became NBA champions last
night, ending a 53-year drought.
Danhausen was appearing regularly on ESPN because of his
cursing gimmick and got the best possible outcome he could
have hoped for with the Knicks winning it all.
“DANHAUSEN IS THE KING OF NEW YORK!,” he wrote on X after
the win. “CONGRATULATIONS @nyknicks THE KINGS OF NEW YORK!
UNCURSED!”
The WWE star originally “cursed” the Knicks in the NBA
Playoffs, and they were losing, but a fan eventually paid
the money to Danhausen to lift the curse, and miraculously
started winning again.
After the game finished, WWE immediately posted a photo of
Danhausen to their millions of followers on social media and
then released merchandise of Danhausen with the NY Knicks,
including a special edition of the Knicks title replica.
Bryan Alvarez of F4WOnline is also reporting that TKO is
working on a deal for Danhausen with the Knicks and the
upcoming Saturday Night’s Main Event at Madison Square
Garden will be Knicks-heavy, with members of the team being
invited over for the show.
