Danhausen’s Curse: Penta Dethrones Dominik Mysterio for WWE IC Title

On the March 2, 2026 episode of WWE Raw at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, Danhausen cursed Dominik Mysterio, who was the WWE Intercontinental Champion, and he lost his title to Penta.

Penta El Zero Miedo, also known as Penta, won his first WWE championship by beating Mysterio in a very important match. The end saw Mysterio ask his Judgment Day friends JD McDonagh and Finn Balor for a ring bell hammer, but Balor stopped the cheat, letting Penta hit a Mexican Destroyer for the pin.

Before, Raw GM Adam Pearce introduced Danhausen to Judgment Day, which made Mysterio make fun of the former AEW star. Fans on social media linked Danhausen’s curse at Mysterio to the title loss right away.

As Balor refused to help, tensions rose, which led to WWE storylines leading up to big events. Mysterio is still the AAA Mega Champion and will defend it soon at Rey de Reyes.
