One of the most popular social media stars of the decade has returned to WWE in the form of iShowSpeed on this week’s WWE Raw. Speed was all smiles tonight, even talking to Intercontinental Champion Penta ahead of his title defense against “Dirty” Dominik Mysterio. Unfortunately, the good times wouldn’t last for the social media sensation. Later in the night, we see WWE Monday Night Raw General Manager Adam Pearce catch up with speed.
The two exchanged pleasantries, with Pearce saying that he’s happy iShowSpeed is back in the WWE. Speed showed his gratitude, saying he’s really excited to be there. Then, a certain “Very Nice, Very Evil” character comes up as Danhausen introduced himself to Speed, as a WWE Legend no less. Danhausen got his facts wrong when he said iShowSpeed only has 183 people following him, and how he could be the biggest social media personality on the planet with that follower count.
iShowSpeed corrected him, saying he has over 180 million followers. To advance his career, Danhausen proposed that Speed give him his social media credentials, they can split the profits, and they can rename the channel “iShowSpeedHausen.” Naturally, Speed said no to the crazy offer, and that’s when things looked bleak for Speed.
Danhausen has “cursed” the likes of Dominik Mysterio and The Miz, and over the past month, the two have experienced nothing but unfortunate events. iShowSpeed should’ve taken that offer because now he’s officially “cursed” by Danhausen.
The last time we saw iShowSpeed was back in the 2025 WWE Royal Rumble men’s match, where he got Speared out of his shoes by Bron Breakker and then tossed out into the ring onto Otis, who gave him a Fallaway Slam on the announce desk. Most thought that was the worst thing ever to happen to iShowSpeed in a WWE ring.
Now, we need to wait and see how Danhausen’s curse pans out for the social media mega celebrity.
