New York Knicks MVP on the power of Danhausen: “You have to believe it now”
WWE star Danhausen received a mention during an appearance by the NBA champion New York Knicks on Monday’s edition of The Tonight Show. During the Knicks’ championship run, Danhausen became associated with the team after “uncursing” them, coinciding with a stretch in which New York won 13 consecutive playoff games. The Knicks went on to defeat the San Antonio Spurs in the NBA Finals over the weekend.
Host Jimmy Fallon asked NBA Finals MVP Jalen Brunson, who is known to be a WWE fan, whether he believed Danhausen played a role in the team’s championship victory. Brunson replied with, “At first, I was a little skeptical, but I mean, you have to believe it now.”
Danhausen responded on Twitter/X with the following message…
“DANHAUSEN KNEW THEY BELIEVED. Thank you @jalenbrunson1 @KarlTowns and @FallonTonight for confirming Danhausens cursing and uncursing powers to the world.”
WWE aired a video package on RAW congratulating the New York Knicks on their NBA championship and showcasing Danhausen’s association with the team.
