WWE's Danhausen Reacts to Knicks' Game 2 Win with Jalen Brunson Photo After Cursing Cavs Before ECF

Andrew PetersMay 21, 2026

The New York Knicks are up 2-0 against the Cleveland Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference Finals, and they can thank WWE's Danhausen.

Danhausen put a curse on the Cavs before the start of the series. He reacted to the Knicks' Game 2 win on social media.

He also called for New York mayor Zohran Mamdani to institute "Danhausen Day."

Danhausen made an appearanceย onย NBA Today earlier this week to show his support for the Knicks and let everyone know that he had put a curse on the Cavs.

"I do have a special mission I've been sent on and that is for the Cleveland Cavaliers tonight," Danhausen said. "Let them know that they are cursed."

Danhausen had previously cursed the Knicks, but he uncursed them during their series against the Atlanta Hawks, though he said they would only remain uncursed if he was given courtside seats near Timothรฉe Chalamet and Kylie Jenner.

New York has now won nine straight games since being uncursed by the WWE star, but he is still waiting for his courtside seats.

He reminded the Knicks that they owe him courtside seats after their comeback win in Game 1.

"We did it. Danhausen has cursed the Cavaliers, the Knicks have won, and Danhausen has won," he said. "And now he is owed courtside seats in Timothee Chalamet and Kylie Jenner."

The Knicks have given no indication that they plan to give Danhausen courtside seats, but they might not have much of a choice if his curse on the Cavs proves to be effective.
