On his Fangin' N Bangin' podcast, Gangrel mentioned that he was supposed to appear on last night's AEW Dynamite in Milwaukee, but it got cancelled because of Edge's Brood revival on Smackdown and SummerSlam.
Gangrel said that AEW called him last week about appearing, and he was getting ready to fly out to Milwaukee on Tuesday, but got the call on Monday that they were going in a different direction due to "WWE media stuff." He said he was happy that Edge got to do the homage, but he was worried about losing the opportunity at the same time. He knew the Edge entrance at SummerSlam was the "final nail in the coffin".
He said he called Edge after SummerSlam, and how he was excited that Gangrel might get more bookings and make merch money out of that angle. But once he revealed that AEW cancelled, Edge felt bad and was very apologetic. But he did not hold a grudge against him, and just chalked it up to bad timing.
Gangrel said Edge had been trying to do the Bloodbath angle for nearly three months, and WWE would not approve it because of their PG status. He wanted "red blood" but was told that if it wasn't black, it was not happening. The host asked him that if AEW did get to do a bloodbath angle, if they would also have an issue with doing blood. He replied of course not, bringing up the pizza slice cutter, and people like Cody bleeding on Dynamite.
Gangrel didn't state who his appearance on Dynamite was supposed to be with, but one would assume it would be something to do with Christian given their past.
Bad Luck, AEW would have been so much better.
