Danhausen Reportedly Was Ready To Leave AEW Before Contract Was Extended

A new report has provided an update on the contract status of the very nice, very evil Danhausen. According to Fightful Select, Danhausen’s contract with All Elite Wrestling has been extended due to time missed, and he will remain with the company.

The report confirms that Danhausen’s original contract with AEW was scheduled to expire on July 1 of this year. However, due to time missed for injuries, several months were added to the deal, which will now take his contract “well into 2026.” This explains why Danhausen is still listed on the official AEW roster page, despite his original deal’s expiration date having passed.

The report notes that it was “believed that Danhausen had requested they not pick up the option, and that he was ready to leave the company.” This was reportedly due to him being “barely used the last couple of years” on AEW programming.

The report also states that there have been “no creative plans for Danhausen of late,” which adds context to his potential frustration with his position in the company.

Danhausen has been largely absent from AEW programming for the better part of two years, with his appearances becoming increasingly sporadic. The full report on Danhausen’s contract can be found on Fightful Select.
