Gangrel Reveals Which Former TNA Star Was Originally Supposed To Be In The Brood

Former WWE Superstar Gangrel recently spoke to The Roman Show about the upcoming Legends of Wrestling event in Miami and more. During the interview he revealed some interesting details about The Brood. You can check out the full interview here and read a few highlights below.

Christian replacing Christopher Daniels in The Brood:

“Edge was in from the beginning,” he said. “Originally a guy from Canada and the guy who was in TNA Christopher Daniels. Chris Daniels was in the lead, where out of nowhere Christian came in. Edge got Christian in.”

Presenting The Brood idea to WWE officials:

“I worked from 1988 and on with WWF to WWE,” he said. “They knew who I was and I kept pushing the vampire thing. They told me, ‘the vampire thing wouldn’t work and its not going to happen’. I gave them all this research about vampires. I kept telling them about the group of vampires it be cool it didn’t matter if they won or lost. It was about doing it and looking cool.”

His thoughts on Rusev:

“I don’t know what’s going but it doesn’t seem like they are using him very much. He is a great talent. What comes around will come back again. He was one of those guys that truly loves pro wresting. He moved to this country to become a pro wrestler,” he said. “When he was out in the pro wrestling school in California Knokx pro with Rikishi he didn’t miss any class. He would sleep in that parking lot in between classes. He had like three different jobs. He barely spoke English. Its funny his gimmick is he hates America but he is living the American dream. I couldn’t be anymore prouder for that guy.”
