Danhausen Reveals REAL Reason Why He Cursed Cavaliers Before Game 1 Versus Knicks

Yahoo Sports

It seems that Danhausen cursing the Cleveland Cavaliers before the Eastern Conference Finals wasn’t some random thing for television. The Cavaliers were on the wrong side of history on Tuesday night. They entered their Eastern Conference Finals series against the New York Knicks as sizable underdogs on the road.

However, they surprised many by having a two-point lead at halftime, then extending it to 22 with just under eight minutes left in the game. Then Jalen Brunson and his teammates caught fire. The All-Star led a stunning rally that had the two teams tied at the end of regulation.

The Knicks superstar and his teammates continued to pour it on in overtime and somehow pulled out an incredible Game 1 win despite a huge deficit in the fourth quarter. Cavaliers fans were bewildered by the shocking loss and tried to figure out how their team blew such a big lead late. However, many NBA fans pointed to one man: WWE star Danhausen.

The “very nice, very evil” star actually cursed Cleveland during an appearance on Tuesday’s NBA Today . “I do have a special mission I’ve been sent on, and that is for the Cleveland Cavaliers tonight. Let them know that they are cursed,” he said.
