Danhausen led his Uncursing Parade through the streets of New York City on Saturday, July 18, and the run ended with a sight he clearly did not want to see. Near the end of WWE’s live stream on YouTube, The Boogeyman met Danhausen, said he was coming to get him and sent him running.
That is the reason fans were searching for Danhausen today. He is set to face JD McDonagh at Saturday Night's Main Event tonight, and the parade on Saturday functioned like a live, public stop on the way to that match. WWE streamed the event, and Danhausen also took fan questions during the broadcast, keeping the focus on him until The Boogeyman entered the picture.
The parade mattered because it was not just a walk through New York City. It was staged as part of Danhausen’s lead-up to Saturday Night's Main Event, and the live format made the whole thing feel less like a bit of promotion and more like a wrestling segment playing out in real time. That also explains why the appearance of The Boogeyman landed the way it did: he did not just show up, he interrupted a stream built around Danhausen and pushed the scene off balance.
And that was the friction built into the moment. Danhausen was out front, answering questions and carrying the parade through New York City, but the second The Boogeyman said he was coming to get him, the act cracked and Danhausen bolted. For fans, the clip gives the clearest signal yet that the run toward Saturday Night's Main Event is being presented with the kind of chaos Danhausen trades on — and that JD McDonagh may be getting more than a straight match when tonight arrives.
