Finn Balor's Demon returns to WWE after GUNTHER ambushes Danhausen

"

GUNTHER said he had something special planned for Danhausen during tonight’s (Oct. 30) Very Nice, Very Evil episode of SmackDown. It was time for the big moment when Danhausen came out to the arena to finally reveal the secret evil experiment that he’s been hiding under a sheet in his laboratory for months. Before he could take off the sheet, though, GUNTHER came from behind for an ambush. LOOK OUT, @DanhausenAD 😱 pic.twitter.com/ruUKXgV195 — WWE (@WWE) October 31, 2026 A bunch of Mini-hausens came out of the Cloning Machine to attack the Ring General. He did sell a move or two, but ultimately beat the shit out of them with pumpkins and tables.

BIG MISTAKE, @Gunther_AUT! 😤 pic.twitter.com/94CUm8Ngyr — WWE (@WWE) October 31, 2026 WWE only brings The Demon in for PLE matches, so it would seem that Balor vs. GUNTHER is indeed likely to be announced soon for Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia on Nov. 7.
