Jim Ross Not Impressed With Danhausen’s WWE Debut: “I Was Underwhelmed”

TLDR

Jim Ross criticized Danhausen's WWE debut during his March 5, 2026 Grilling JR podcast, calling it "underwhelming" and questioning whether the performer was ready for such a big moment. Ross suggested that Danhausen's debut may have suffered because many fans weren't familiar with the character, though he emphasized his comments weren't a personal attack and that he hopes Danhausen finds success. Danhausen debuted at Elimination Chamber by emerging from a mystery crate and later appeared on Monday Night Raw where he "cursed" Dominik Mysterio backstage during a segment with The Judgment Day.
