It makes all the sense in the world to feature Danhausen on this show, seeing how he <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cagesideseats.com\/wwe\/451055\/new-york-knicks-nba-champions-danhausen-celebrate-wwe-tie-in-merch-msg-snme-plans-jalen-brunson\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">uncursed the New York Knicks<\/a> to help them win the NBA championship for the first time in over 50 years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">That jabroni Matt Cardona was at the scene when Danhausen revealed the news about SNME, where he offered his services to help combat the numbers game of The Judgment Day. Danhausen declined Matt\u2019s offer because he already has a friend from New York who will be there as backup.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">This led to immediate speculation about Baron Corbinhausen returning to WWE as Danhausen\u2019s special friend. The only problem with this theory is that Corbin isn\u2019t from New York.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">That brings me to a new report today from <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/wrestlevotes\" rel=\"nofollow\">WrestleVotes Radio<\/a>, which says WWE considered numerous creative pitches involving Danhausen and New York Knicks star player Jalen Brunson. However, any <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cagesideseats.com\/wwe\/451306\/wwe-jalen-brunson-connection-plan-new-york-knicks-nba-finals-champion-mvp-danhausen-espn\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">plans for Brunson to get physical<\/a> in the ring were \u201cshelved\u201d when they found out he needed wrist surgery.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Regardless, Votes says several members of the Knicks championship team are expected to be in attendance at MSG for SNME, and WWE remains hopeful that Brunson will be there too. The report doesn\u2019t connect these dots, but it seems to me that Danhausen might have more than one special friend from New York in his corner that night, depending on how many New York Knicks players are in the building.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Do you think Danhausen will have some NBA champions as his friends in New York to help fight off The Judgment Day, or is it better if the Knicks players remain on the sidelines so that a different star can take the spotlight?
