In a recent interview as part of the Reffin’ It Up With Brian Hebner podcast, Gangrel revealed that despite rumors and him being in Los Angeles for WrestleMania Weekend as part of WrestleCon, WWE officials never reached out to him about an appearance at WrestleMania 39, but that he spoke with Edge about those rumors.
“They may have discussed it, but my phone never rang, I started reading all this stuff, people were calling me, so I wrote to Adam, do you know how this started. He made a joke that these writers think they know everything and I laughed, and he said I tried to tell a guy to tell them no, I wasn’t doing it, but he still ran the story anyways and 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 he pitched SummerSlam for me, but it got shot down.”
