One of the matches on Night Two of WrestleMania 39 saw Edge facing Finn Balor in a Hell In A Cell match. Edge was introduced as “Brood Edge” referring to his time in the Brood stable. His former Brood teammate Gangrel had been rumored for an appearance on the show but did not appear. Gangrel appeared on the Refin’ It Up podcast and said he was never contacted for such an appearance. While he said that the idea was pitched, WWE did not go through with the idea.

Gangrel had a nice history in WWE. Check out what he did in the company:

Opinion: This does make some sense and in a way I’m glad Gangrel did not appear. While Gangrel is someone who played a major role in the early days of Edge’s WWE career, it was so long ago that I really don’t need to see him at a major WWE event these days. There is a place for a Gangrel return in WWE, but it wasn’t at WrestleMania at the end of a nearly ten month long feud.
