Former WWE Star Comments On Rumored WrestleMania Appearance

WrestleMania 39 has come and gone and the two night event gave fans plenty to talk about. Edge faced off against Finn Balor in a Hell in a Cell match and Edge used elements of his Brood character during his entrance. It was rumored that Gangrel was being brought in for the Show of Shows, and he even confirmed he was in Los Angeles at one point during WrestleMania week, but ultimately he did not appear on the show.

Gangrel recently discussed the rumored appearance on Reffin’ It Up with Brian Hebner, and he noted that the idea was apparently pitched, but he never heard anything from WWE.

“They may have discussed it, but my phone never rang. I started reading all the stuff, people were calling me, so I wrote Adam [Edge], ‘Do you know this started?’ He made a joke, ‘these writers think they know everything.’ I laughed. I tried to tell a guy to tell them, ‘No, I wasn’t doing it,’ but he still ran the story anyway.

He goes, ‘To be fair, it was pitched, it just never happened.’ It was pitched, but I never heard about it. I didn’t know anything about it. They never reached out to me. I guess, Edge is always pitching something for me. I think pitched SummerSlam for me, but it got shot down.”

Do you want to see Gangrel return to WWE someday? Sound off in the comments below.
