The Ministry of Darkness: where are they now?

#4 Gangrel

As the leader of the Brood and an extremely scary figure dressed like a vampire, Gangrel and his group were the perfect match for the satanic intentions of The Ministry. With his extended incisors and his goblet of blood, Gangrel was pipped to be a bigger star than he ended up becoming.

He would spit the blood out during his ring entrance under red lights and the drips on his white shirt contrasted perfectly to give that eery look and to turn the audience’s stomach just a little bit.

His group, The Brood, voluntarily left the faction after being asked to sacrifice their fellow member Christian and refusing to do so. They feuded with the Ministry for a short time and then turned their eyes to the Tag Team Championships.

Once Edge and Christian turned on Gangrel following their loss at No Mercy 1999, he lost all direction and was fighting the lower card throughout 2000 and 2001. Performing on Heat and Velocity, rumour has it that management were not happy about his weight and therefore let him go.

He made sporadic appearances throughout the 2000s, coming back for a reunion with Ministry member Viscera to take on The Undertaker. He also reportedly came back again for a potential Vampire stable with Kevin Thorn that never came to be.

He has directed pornographic movies under the name Vampire Warrior and even had a cameo in The Human Centipede 3! He can still be found at the odd wrestling event, spitting blood and taking names.

He even revealed that Bray Wyatt wanted him to return to the WWE but it couldn't come through due to copyright issues.
