The star in question is Danhausen. He gained popularity in All Elite Wrestling for his remarkable character work and entertaining performances. However, he hasn't competed inside an AEW ring since the 2023 Worlds End pay-per-view.

Speaking exclusively to Sportskeeda Wrestling's Bill Apter, Mr. Very Nice Very Evil confirmed that he was still signed with the Jacksonville-based promotion.

"I'm still there, yes," Danhausen said. [2:11-2:15]

In classic Danhausen style, the face-painted star recalled working alongside The Gunns and The Acclaimed.

WWE legend questioned Danhausen's booking in AEW

Danhausen has made many friends in AEW, including WWE legend Matt Hardy. However, Matt is now signed to TNA Wrestling. Despite being absent from the company's programming, the 34-year-old has been active on the independent circuit.

The Broken One called the All Elite Wrestling star "a great commodity" on an episode of his Extreme Life with Matt Hardy podcast. Matt added that Danhausen should have been booked better in the company and was confused regarding All Elite Wrestling's decision not to feature him on TV.

"Danhausen's a hustler too, man. Lots of love for him. He's a great entertainer. He's a great commodity. With him, there are so many different avenues you can take to put him on your TV program and get him over, and make him sell tons of merchandise, and make him a compelling part of your TV program. I don't know why they decided not to do that. Once again, I don't know the ins and outs of all the details."
