In the days leading up to last night's 2026 WWE Elimination Chamber Premium Live Event, a mystery crate became a hot topic among fans. This crate first appeared on WWE television a couple of weeks ago on Monday Night RAW and was later featured on Friday Night SmackDown. The note attached to it instructed the General Managers of RAW and SmackDown not to open it until the Elimination Chamber event.
During last night’s show in Chicago, Illinois, Adam Pearce and Nick Aldis finally opened the crate, revealing that Danhausen was behind it. The former AEW star made his way to the ring accompanied by a group of dancers who had also emerged from a coffin beside the crate. In a quirky moment, Danhausen presented a cup filled with teeth to Michael Cole before exiting the ring.
WWE Chief Content Officer Paul "Triple H" Levesque appeared on the Elimination Chamber post-show to discuss various topics, including Danhausen's debut in WWE.
This is what Triple H said, “Me not commenting on the crate, and Danhausen-Michael Cole got a nice bucket of teeth. I think we’re in for a fun time. Whatever it is, it’s gonna be a blast.”
Danhausen's AEW contract expired earlier this month, and he was removed from the company's roster page yesterday, just before his appearance at Elimination Chamber.
