Triple H gave a former AEW star their wish as he gave them a special greeting backstage at WWE RAW.

Danhausen has arrived in WWE, with a debut that might well be memorable for all the wrong reasons. For weeks, RAW and SmackDown General Managers Adam Pearce and Nick Aldis had been left wondering what was in a mystery crate that was only to be opened at the Elimination Chamber.

It was left to them to open the crate, where they found a closed coffin. Neither man hung around to find out what was then in that. When it did open, a throng of face-painted women emerged before Danhausen officially arrived in WWE.

He made his way to the ring, gave Michael Cole a jar of teeth, and posed as the Chicago crowd instantly turned on him, showering him with boos. Given how his debut played out, many were quick to compare it to another infamous debut in WWE history.

Triple H Points At Danhausen

On the following episode of RAW, Danhausen made his demands to Adam Pearce, whom he thinks is Stone Cold Steve Austin in disguise. One of those demands was a pointing photo with Triple H. Ask, and ye shall receive.

Now Triple H has taken to social media to welcome Danhausen to the company with the obligatory photo and the obligatory jibe at AEW, as he wrote:

Welcome to the Big Dancehausen. @DanhausenAD
