CM Punk is the heavy betting favorite to be Danhausen’s mystery tag team partner at WWE Backlash on May 9 in Tampa, with MyBookie listing Punk at -200. Punk has no other confirmed match at the event, creating an obvious opening for the appearance. Punk has long been one of the most vocal backstage advocates for bringing Danhausen into WWE, and the two share a well-documented real-life friendship that makes the pairing a logical fit from both a creative and personal standpoint.
Other odds listed for Danhausen’s mystery partner are Jelly Roll at +400, John Cena at +2000, and Stephen A. Smith at +5000. Danhausen himself posted on X/Twitter offering 400 human dollars to a list of retired legends if they would come out of retirement to team with him.
