Danhausen Declares Himself “King Of New York” After Knicks NBA Championship Win

TLDR

Danhausen has declared himself "King of New York" after the New York Knicks defeated the San Antonio Spurs 94-90 in Game 5 of the 2026 NBA Finals, ending the team's 53-year championship drought. The wrestler is taking credit for "uncursing" the team and posted a congratulatory video on Twitter, jokingly demanding honors like a statue, mural, and his own parade from the city. WWE has already capitalized on the moment by releasing a Danhausen x New York Knicks T-shirt line tied to the "uncursed" storyline.
