IShowSpeed’s latest appearance on the March 23 episode of WWE RAW didn’t just end in the show — it appears to have followed him into real life, as the popular streamer now claims a certain “curse” may be more than just a gimmick.
The crossover moment between WWE and internet culture quickly turned from playful chaos into something Speed himself now describes as a streak of bad luck — though how real that “curse” is remains the bigger question.
IShowSpeed deals with real-life issues after Danhausen curse on WWE RAW
The situation began backstage on RAW, where IShowSpeed interacted with several WWE stars before crossing paths with Danhausen.
Known for his “very nice, very evil” persona, Danhausen proposed a deal involving Speed’s YouTube account access and shared profits — an offer the streamer refused.
That refusal led to Danhausen placing a curse on him, setting up an unusual off-air race with Speed’s account credentials at stake. Danhausen won the race, leaving Speed empty-handed — and, perhaps, “double-crossed” in more ways than one.
What followed added a curious twist. During a recent YouTube stream, Speed detailed a series of mishaps, including a three-hour flight delay, issues with his costume and stream setup, and an overall rough day.
At one point, he admitted, “I’m gonna be honest, I have had a bad day today,” later suggesting his “My Life Might Be F***ed” — all while pointing back to Danhausen’s curse.
While clearly presented with a tongue-in-cheek tone, the storyline has gained traction online. Even Big E, speaking during a RAW recap, leaned into the bit by warning Speed to take the curse seriously, suggesting humorous “remedies” like holy water and garlic.
It’s a reminder that in WWE, even the smallest segments can grow legs — or in this case, maybe fangs.
Danhausen, who debuted at Elimination Chamber 2026, continues to appear across both RAW and SmackDown as a free agent, often leaving chaos — and curses — in his wake.
For now, Speed’s string of misfortune remains part of the ongoing narrative, blending sports entertainment with digital stardom in a way that keeps fans guessing what’s real and what’s just… very evil.
