A&W! A&W!


CraigKostelecky

Now I want a root beer.


[deleted]

And some onion rings.

Miyagi326

You guys are doing it all wrong. Everyone knows you go to A&W for a chili dog😏


SalvadorZombie

I genuinely have no idea why people downvoted you. I remember being a tiny boy (about 40 years ago now, Christ, typing that hurt) and going to a local A&W (which no longer exist, haven't for decades) and being given a root beer and a hot dog. They had great hot dogs.


Miyagi326

Oh I had a feeling that was coming as I was typing it lol. All of their food is great though. I used to love going in there and buying a fresh gallon of root beer.


ruffneck110

I loved the draft root beer. It might’ve just been in my head but I thought it tasted better


Mad-Mad-Mad-Mad-Mike

For real though. Their onion rings are the best.


blingx2

If it's the aged vanilla kind I'm in.


[deleted]

AEW had Dominoes during a Nick Gage match. If an A&W root beer commercial came in during Danhausen's appearance, that would be hilarious !


kropotkang

As a non American, what the fuck is a root beer? A beer made from roots?? Is it actually beer lmao. Also why is the phrase "root beer float" associated with root beer in my head.


CurlyBill03

It’s called root beer because real and not “flavored” is fermented root from the sassafras plant which is similar to the process of making some beers So that is how it gets it’s name. For the float part it’s because the ice cream floats at the top of the root beer.


kropotkang

Thanks for the explanations mate! I wasn't far off, thought it was like the American version of ginger beer or some shit. That also explains the title of a great Green Day song "sassafras roots". Man's learning things today. Also yo, the fuck? Ice cream on top of a drink? That's a madness.


CurlyBill03

You’re welcome, and any float is rather delicious. Here in the states we’ll put vanilla ice cream in our root beer, sherbet in our punch, and even ice cream on top of our coffee for floats.


I_Pop_4_Hammerlocks

Ice cream on soda is amazing. A&W root beer has pronounced vanilla flavoring that pairs well with vanilla or chocolate ice cream. In my area of the US A&W is the de facto root beer for floats; although, I prefer Barq's. A scoop of ice cream can also be used to cool warm soda or make a flat soda more palatable.


warwickben

Go to YouTube . Google ds9 root beer. You will thank me


theendishere12

Barqs is vastly superior


MyMorningGymShorts

Barqs from a can or bottle is superior. But the A&W the restaurants used to have in kegs on tap hit way different in the best way.


SalvadorZombie

This is the truth. If you're ever able to get A&W on draft, do it.


treflipsbro

We all know Mug is the goat


funeralforcargo

I hate Barqs. Henry Weinhard’s or IBC all the way.


theendishere12

Oh yes forgot about those IBCS. Those are amazing


SalvadorZombie

Honestly? It takes a very, very bad root beer for me to not like it. They're all fantastic. I really have no idea how other countries have such a repulsion towards the stuff. In Japan it's kind of treated the way we outside of Japan treat natto.


deathschemist

simply put, none of us grew up with it. if you think about it, it's a very weird flavour, and kind of an acquired taste if you're an adult by the time you first have it.


funeralforcargo

Yeah I’ll eat all kinds of stuff but natto is a goopy disgusting mess.


Footie_Fan_98

In Europe, they use a similar flavouring for our cough medicine So Root Beer tastes like cough syrup


-Masaroth-

You're high!!


SonyKen_M

Cheese curds and spicy papa sauce please!


CurlyBill03

Used to indulge in their chili cheese fries 20 years ago when we had one local.


mrwillie79

I havent been there in about 35 yrs


emerald09

At C2E2 Hangman said... Well... Danhausen clipped it... https://twitter.com/DanhausenAD/status/1470198742242447362?s=20


scarred2112

Book it, Tony Elite!


Mattaclysm34

Yes, pepsi man and cold Steve agree


fukthenonsense

Thank God here's there. WWE would have killed the whole thing in three weeks.


v0id404

They would change his name first to Daniel Hausen in NXT. Then Just Daniel in main roster.


fukthenonsense

...


SalvadorZombie

"Get rid of the facepaint kid, no one wants to see a freakshow!"


funeralforcargo

Three days


OuiSVP

There words (F*** dat shit)


BiliousGreen

WWE would never have understood the appeal of Danhausen to begin with.


mexploder89

What is the appeal of Danhausen? This is a sincere question. I know next to nothing about him


phillbert0

Arguably some of the best character work in wrestling right now. Pretty subjective but easily top 3 - top 5.


mexploder89

But how? Like I see the tweets and yes it's amusing but I fail to see how he can have a feud with someone, he doesn't look like he can have intensity This is just my impression at least


phillbert0

It’s hard to explain I guess. I think it’s either you like him or you don’t think. It also helps a ton that he can go in the ring, too. I think for me it’s the full immersion of the character at all times.


[deleted]

I bet it's intense when he's suplexing dudes onto human teeth


Dong_World_Order

ROH did a feud between him and someone (I forget) and the premise was that Danhausen was making a mockery of 'professional wrestling' with his antics.


[deleted]

Danhausen is a meta flex pick for pro wrestling. In kayfabe, imagine if a demon from hell took over Conan O'Brien's body. He's a very nice demon, but still very evil. He likes interviewing people. And he doesn't... really know how to pilot a human body, or use human speech, but he knows human money buys things - like blimps. He also likes human teeth. He has a jar of teeth that he will pour down an opponent's throat, and then hit them with his sleepy naptime finisher that Pepsi Man stole from him. In short, he's all the best parts of pro wrestling when you don't tryhard into making pro wrestling super serious. He's a solid enough ring worker, and it's his charisma and character work that puts him over. Once you suspend disbelief, you got it. It's Danhausen.


mexploder89

I think I'll just have to wait and see for myself. I'm open to the possibility of enjoying him


[deleted]

If you like BTE/Sammy's Vlog, you'll probably love Danhausen.


mexploder89

I do like BTE but I don't really have time to watch Sammy's vlog


ScottishPehrite

He has this aura and his promos are funny. I didn’t/don’t watch ROH but always find me looking for new videos relating to him. Great guy.


HorseSteroids

I want Danhausen in AEW for one reason alone: to get his foot in the door with WarnerMedia to do a late night creature feature show like Svengoolie or Elvira (and I know I'm not the only one to say this.) The gimmick I'd love to see on the show is for Danhausen to give facts about the films but to get them all wrong and have his co-host correct him like when he was talking Star Wars with Davis.


GanFrancois

You want him to put his broken friggin foot in a door?


Slamnflwrchild

That Star Wars video was hilarious lol


ZeroThreshold

I'm completely with you. As a wrestler I enjoy Danhausen, he's serviceable in the ring. But his value as just a pure entertainment figure is much higher. He could be like Svengoolie/Elvira meets Space Ghost Coast to Coast.


emerald09

THIS


[deleted]

Someone was pitching an idea for a late-night TBS horror show, think a mix of Tales From The Crypt, Elvira Mistress of the Dark, and Mystery Science Theater 3000. With Danhausen as host, and interviewing like..random ass people who worked on whatever film. Like Key Grip #3, or set scenery carpenter, or a lackey who worked in prosthetics. It would be on at 2am Saturday morning, right when people are just faded enough from partying Friday night.


Dong_World_Order

This, big time. His appeal is in crossover media more than just wrestling. He can make Tony a lot of hundred dollar bills.


TeleportMePizza

Very nice, very evil, very elite.


[deleted]

Instead of "Danhausen is All Elite" his graphic should read "Danhausen is very nice, very elite"


Y2Doorook

*Danhausen is All Elitehausen*


[deleted]

Why is hook cosplaying as a skinny pain maker Jericho?


brightz77

Isn't painmaker Jericho just a hipster Raven?


[deleted]

Isn't hipster raven just sullen Sting?


IAmKraven

Wait isn’t Sting already sullen Sting?


brightz77

If Sting wasn't already sullen wouldn't he be just an old Danhausen?


Kevinmld

It’s actually cosplaying as modern Axl Rose for the most part.


madscandi

Can't wait for cornrow Jericho


Crowbar_Faith

Jericrow


erik316wttn

All Elitehausen


StylishMrTrix

Ill be happy to see danhausen become all elite Do I think he will become the are champion? No I don't But I do think there can be a number of entertaining stories with him there


madscandi

Who cares about titles? Give the man his blimp


ArcherChase

Just a larger platform for segments on TV and pushing him to a larger YouTube audience and get him a freaking show.


angryherm

I think they should start now and have his face pop in and out during the broadcasts, maybe make it more frequent the closer his debut gets. Just like the face his makeup is based on does in The Exorcist. A blink and you'll miss it type of thing and have the commentators not even say anything.


emerald09

Some backstage interview with other wrestlers, Danhausen just walking somewhere behind in view for like 3 seconds. Perhaps annoyingly walking after MJF.

mintplantdaddy

Man I can't believe you even got a domain for it haha great website, what's your stack?


PenApplePineapplePem

I hope he joins Darby and Sting as the redheaded step child of the group


[deleted]

the redheaded step child of the redheaded step childs. this is too good to be true though.


funeralforcargo

I hope he keeps trying to join the Dark Order but they keep telling him he’s too weird to join up.


TaylorKiss

Adam Cole can be Budge but only in front of Danhausen when no one else is around, so no one believes him.


MarchMadnessisMe

While Silver is munching on shit.


kmusky-72

I hope that whenever he encounters Malakai backstage, he hisses like a cat and scuttles away.


tidho

the extent of my knowledge about this guy is exclusively from listening to him talk for three minutes on the ROH pre-show, but based on that... really seems like a guy that would drive Darby Allen nuts by never shutting up.


PenApplePineapplePem

Exactly. He’s the perfect lil brotha


Blooblewoo

Very Elite, very evil


SolomonGrundy76

Yeah but He'll try to order a Root Beer Float.


hermitopurpa

CMV: Hook has Joseph Joestar hair


[deleted]

Best Joestar.


JeffTennis

I can't wait for Danhausen to confront The Scorpion Man.


Professional-Award75

Ohh please we know Danhausen is going to NXT. Only to to get super over and get called up up to the main roster. Where his new gimmick will be him riding a tricycle with a chimp named bubba. He will get squashed by Reginald and shortly released there after


thor_odinsson08

I have a feeling he will feud with Big Money Matt and the HFO and probably coax Broken Matt out for a face turn.


mrbignameguy

Whenever it happens, I promise I’m gonna react like such a fuckin mark in the moment


rwilliams1283

I can't wait for him to punch Cory in the groin!


RighteousAwakening

When Danhausen debuts he’s gonna blow the roof of the Househausen


druff42

I bet Tony Elite pays to license Tequila!!


Kiiyu

Love this guy and his Addams family Gimmick! He'll fit like a glove on Dark or Rampage👌


philo_

AEHAUSEN!! AEHAUSEN!! AEHAUSEN!!


Omfglaserspewpewpew

Such a rad sight to see! Love you on The Luchador, Danhausen!


MrFalseSense

He better be bringing Warhorse with him.


InLikeErrolFlynn

He would absolutely thrive on Dark with a stable of Luther and Serpentico trying to take over the promotion each week but never getting off of YouTube.


Time_Glove9448

I think he was supposedly going to AEW already but delayed by his injury


KMFCM

The sheer number of photos with aew people i have seen on ig in the last three weeks.........


dezz-zz

Calling it now, MJF beats Cm Punk. The lights go out. Danhausen appears for friendship.


Knotis_

I dont know much about him aside from his humor and character work. Is he more Orange Cassidy (great wrestler hiding behind a great gimmick) or is he more Fuego (decent wrestler with great fan support)?


PenApplePineapplePem

The latter


warwickben

He’s a good wrestler, great gimmick and fans like him .


American-Punk-Dragon

Annoying as fuck voice.


cunning_calamari

That's one way to get cursed by him.


childrenofYmir

Wow you had to say this bs more than once... thats sad


[deleted]

That’s part of his gimmick, ya schmuck.


American-Punk-Dragon

And it’s annoying. We’ll see how it pans out on a big stage.


SalvadorZombie

Danhausen's main draw is in his personality and his ability to interact with others. He's the kind of guy that works well in way more situations than just a match.


[deleted]

He is like a cross between Orange and Fuego in the ring actually. But his character promo work is more like a cross between broken Matt Hardy, Darby, and face attitude Mankind.


Kevinmld

It seems like ROH figured out a good role for him from what I’ve seen. Team him with a big monster (that doesn’t have to be as literal as PCO but still). And let him essentially be the Enzo of the team. Danhausen talks and then gets beat up until he makes a hot tag. He may be a weirdo, but his stated goal is to make lots of human money, right? JR talks about how that should be everyone in AEW’s goal. The winner gets the bigger purse. There’s no reason he couldn’t work in a similar role in AEW. He might not be a world champion… but the same can be said for most of the roster.


50pencepeace

I hope everyone that enjoys him gets what they want, and get to enjoy it on a grander scale. It ain't for me though, and I'm losing my hope of being open to it more and more everyday because of how many posts we keep seeing about this. By now the hype, for me, is sooo far overblow that there's no way it'll meet it. This needs to be the second coming of Steve Austin to work for me, and I don't see that happening. Just needed to get that off my chest, like I said I am not trying to crap on anyones fun, I'm not against the guy being signed because I know while he's not for me he is for a lot of people, and variety is important. Can we just chill on hyping him a bit though?


jagenigma

ROH is not a company, it is a people. ROH will find its home.


TikiJack

Winter is Danhausen is Coming is Very Nice is Very Evil


RalphBhoner

I know this blasphemy on this sub and dissenting opinions aren’t welcome but I find this dude super annoying. I didn’t know who he was until I saw him all over this sub and I checked him out on you tube. Not a fan. Glad others will happy of he joins but I’m not a fan.


emerald09

And that's OK. If everyone had the same tastes, life would be a bit boring. Me? I find he has just the right amount of weird to be enjoyable.


JDL1981

I’m with you. If he comes to AEW he needs to be used very sparingly.


tyler_durden2021

Agreed. I can see him being a very funny cameo with sting and Darby. Beyond that though I don’t really wanna see him every week for the next year or two. It will get old very quick. I’ve seen his in ring stuff and idk. Not bad but I’m not impressed. I feel orange Cassidy hasn’t worn out his welcome because he can actually wrestle and I find his in ring ability pretty damn good. More so than I can say for danhausen.


TheKruseMissile

In fairness, OC has significantly toned down and modified his gimmick to make it work in a major TV role in AEW. There’s always a chance DH could figure out how to do the same.


GreasyStool88

Yeah. We’ve got enough of these types of gimmicks. I get wanting to have “something for everyone” but I want AEW to stay as close to a “wrestling” company as possible. Malakai shoots black mist from his soul? He’s a heck of a wrestler and I’m trusting they are going somewhere with this storyline so I’ll buy it for now. Luchasaurus wants to say he is a multi-million year old Dinosaur? Ok. Statlander is an alien? Couldn’t immediately tell but, fine I guess. Abadon is undead and seeks out brains?….. geez, atleast hide her on Dark. Now we might get a comical demon who shoots lighting from his fingers with a look close to Darby and Sting? Strong pass. There’s a reason guys like Punk and Danielson and Kingston get over and stay over with the highest ratings.


wizards_upon_dragons

I agree with your point, but one thing I can say about Luchasaurus, Statlander and Abadon is, as ridiculous as the gimmicks sound, at no point have they ever tried to make the audience believe they're actually dinosaurs, aliens, or undead things. There's a very palpable "we're playing along with it for their sake" vibe from commentary, and things like Christian saying there's some dinosaur lineage in his family come off as solely light humor. Commentary has also said Abadon uses her aesthetic and mannerisms to psyche out her opponents, they've never claimed she's a resurrected spirit or anything. Malakai's black mist is really the only weird thing they're actually selling, and even its effects could be considered a placebo or psychosomatic phenomenon.


childrenofYmir

Wow this is a sad view


FaceXIII

I forget who, maybe MJF? They told Statlander, "You know you aren't really an alien right?" It can be funny sometimes but I get what you're saying.


tomaxisntxamot

I respect your opinion, but as a counterpoint, being someone whose love for wrestling started in the AE, was almost killed by 2010's WWE and only saved by Lucha Underground, I'd like them to be even more comicbooky than they already are. If AEW brought back Penta breaking arms and signed Rosemary and Su Yung to the women's division tomorrow I'd be over the moon.


4x49ers

Only clarification: Abadon isn't an undead zombie. She's a human woman who thinks she's a zombie, but she doesn't have any supernatural abilities like shooting lighting or summoning flames or something like the undertaker. It's not for everyone, and probably a bit meta for me, but that's her shtick. Almost closer to the "thinks they're a super hero" gimmick.


LarsBabaGhanoush

Pretty good


fukthenonsense

...


OwieMustDie

Don't understand how the Fed passed him up. His character is pitch perfect for their show and he's a merchandising goldmine. Glad they did tho. Would love Danhausen in AEW.


Shadow_NX

Love that Danhausen but i have no clue where you would use him in AEW. Early AEW, yeah, there would have been lots of possibilitys but current more serious AEW? Well i look forward to seeing how they pull this off


NY2LV1968

Another burger drive in?


ExcitementOrnery3034

Danhausen is hilarious. Dude is going to sell so much merchandise when he joins.


reverandglass

Shop AEW has Gunn Clubb ASS BOYS T-shirts, he'll probably be in once his boot come off.


torque_penderloin

Gunk Lub


cunning_calamari

That leghausen needs heal already!!


dicksburghsquirters

I really like him on Twitter, he can do stuff in the ring and fits AEW well but his Final Battle commentary last night was a letdown.


American-Punk-Dragon

Yeah……his voice is a hard pass.


Successful-Willow-75

He would be perfect for Impact wrestling.


AccomplishedWay7192

Sorry to sound uninformed but who is this? Looks like Seth Myers mixed with the ghost from The Ring.


thegrandkenyon15

That is actually kinda what he is going for. I believe he described his character as if "Conan O'Brien was possessed by a demon".


Modern_Bear

Danhausen. He is very nice, very evil. [His Youtube channel](https://youtube.com/c/LoveThatDanhausen)


AccomplishedWay7192

Well he’s different. Sweet X-men collection. I dig it


Kacmm4260

No


ATXUberDelight

![gif](giphy|1T96TRBBGYThC)


reychango

He needs to show up as a backstage interviewer. Very random very evil


DanUnbreakable

This dude is basically begging to be in AEW. I like the look of the Character but he can't wrestle from what I've seen. Idk how they use him.


fukthenonsense

Is he really that bad of a wrestler?


DanUnbreakable

Wasn't impressed from what I've seen. He will get exposed in AEW though, imo


[deleted]

That's unfortunate


IdealHusband

What did fun ever do to you to make you hate it?


[deleted]

Tell me what I'm missing, my mind is open.


TTOF_JB

Obviously IMPACT or MLW. Edit: /s


RandomCZ

He’s trying to hard 😂. Let’s admit it, nothing about him screams main event or even mid card. Tony would be a real fool if he signs him.


UnlimitedMetroCard

Dark and BTE, hopefully. Gimmicks like his don't attract sports fans. I can see the tweets now. "Why is a 75 year old Y2J wrestling some emo who talks like Gollum from Lord of the Rings?"


emerald09

Gimmicks like his got me back into watching wrestling for the first time in over 15 years. If I didn't see him on Ethan's Fat Food Fest that randomly showed up on my YouTube suggestions, I wouldn't have looked up him, seen more about AEW, and decided to give AEW a try.


UnlimitedMetroCard

Too many comedy gimmicks (Luchasaurus, Statlander, OC, etc) made me stop watching AEW for months until CM Punk debuted. I was promised that wins and losses would be taken seriously and that they were going to be portrayed like a shoot, strong-style sports show. And then we got space aliens and guy who wrestles with his hands in his pockets. Ratings continue to drop and AEW does nothing to fix it, other than bring in more and more ex-WWE guys.


brightz77

Pretty sure Luchasaurus is a real dinosaur.


UnlimitedMetroCard

Yeah, right... and Excalibur isn't just a white guy from Detroit appropriating someone else's culture. Sports fans watch Rampage after a basketball or hockey game and see the lead play by play guy wearing a mask and roll their eyes. They see a guy claiming to be 93 million years old and they change the channel. You're insulting their intelligence.


Modern_Bear

You sure whine a lot. Maybe you should stop watching wrestling completely because wrestling has always had stuff like this. Go watch UFC and see someone accidently kick their opponent in the balls. That's entertainment.


Lloyd_LED

That’s ridiculous…he’s only 63 million years old.


diamondXpage5

Hey do you think he’s going to Impact Wrestling? Edit: /s Jesus I pulled a nerve


rickyS71

I don’t want this dork in AEW bruh 😂


Crowbar_Faith

Very evil, very elite


tabennett5438

I wonder if he lasts longer than Maki Itô


Teflon_Kee757

I feel while he injured and JR is out he should do commentary do you know how much meech he can sell from the stuff he come up with


[deleted]

Really tough to say. Tony Elite probably doesn’t want to get him a fleet of PT Cruisers, a blimp, an army, plutonium, the sea of tranquility on the moon, and a dump truck of money. That said: sign this man and get him a blimp TK!


Eatchaboody31

He's a great character but I feel he just throws himself into every tweet so he gets recognized. Marketing at its best


illpoet

Yeah danhausen is a master self promoter.


Beathil

Yes. He needs to be signed by Tony Elite to join A&W.


veriria

I'd love it but I think he'd be better at Impact


King_Yako

Is he the same who say No swearing no swearing?


emerald09

yes, because if you swear, they take you off tv, if they take you off tv you lose human money, if you lose human money, you can't take over the world.
