Danhausen has been an interesting name associated with the Straight Edge Superstar, as they are close. The two began their friendship while Punk was in AEW a few years ago, and they constantly keep in contact, including some online banter.

The Very Nice, Very Evil star's contract with the Tony Khan-led promotion reportedly ends in July, barring any addition of injury time. If AEW does not re-sign him, CM Punk could push for WWE to bring him in. They could find themselves working together, with Punk finding another ally to help him in his battles.

The two close friends often share some friendly online banter on Instagram, and they often make jokes about owing money to one another.

Danhausen has joked about Punk owing him money for some random items, as in one instance, he mentioned this being for NJPW tickets. Punk would sometimes also ask him to pay him back for other instances, including borrowing his GTS finisher, some novelty items, and even for impersonation.

The two could develop this into a real-life storyline, with CM Punk being able to bring in Danhausen, as he owes him money. They could continue joking around with this arrangement during their on-screen interactions. This could be an interesting way to fit in a comedic angle between the two popular stars.
