Gangrel on Luna Vachon & her Death

[@therealnickynurotic8930]

It's sad , he's trying to put on a brave face . But he wants to cry . That's true love there . You can tell he really loved her .

[@samloomis4930]

If you ever have a chance to meet him believe when I say do it. He's one of the coolest people you will ever meet, I guarantee it! I wouldn`t really say I was a huge fan of his until I met him, after that I'm a huge fan. Not arrogant or any thing like that, down to earth cool dude!

[@RobD-jq7ry]

Raziel Talos Yeah man. It's a strange thing. People say time heals all...meh. I say time gets you more used to the pain of loss. You never get over it but you find a way to move forward...as there is no other viable option.

[@blakenapier3125]

I Know it's hard to Cry in front of Someone

[@michaelpadasay6416]

Sam Loomis really?i like his persona and his entrance theme in wwf before..but he didnt give a shot by vince mcmahon

[@warpath6666]

Yeah, he's a a top-notch kinda guy :)

[@jarrasmith1]

Poor guy. Seems like a humble good dude. Feel for him, right now.

[@paulkersey1007]

I'm a huge fan of Gangrel. I met him back when he was a part of the Brood. He's one of the nicest people I've ever met in wrestling. Very cool. You can tell he stayed strong but wanted to cry in the interview. Much respect and admiration Vampire Warrior!

[@dracodabossyadigg6419]

I'm jealous... I wish I met him lol I still want to meet him in person gangrel is one of my all time faves

[@KGV1374]

He seems like a really normal guy besides the teeth

[@xiPopCat]

Anthony Chu he was supposed to be back in 2006 with Kevin and Ariel but Vince decided to not bring him in as he “was fat” 😐

[@charlesoliver1977]

Anthony Chu, I met him back around three years ago I saw him chillin' in a nightclub here in East Tennessee and and he's a pretty cool guy he seems pretty chill

[@funnerfunerals]

Saw him at a small local show a few years ago. Not only is he super nice, but he's still got his wrestling chops too, was really awesome to see him work again.

[@Seekarr]

I liked Luna and Gangrel. I will sometimes read stuff like "WWE didn't know how to use Gangrel" and that sort of stuff. He had a long run through the peak period of WWE's success. While he was generally on Heat and the lower card, he lit that part of the show up and made it very interesting to watch. He's part of the tapestry of the Attitude era.

[@dkupke]

If you watch other parts of this interview, it is clear WWE had no few plans for him beyond him helping get Edge and Christian established and confident enough to stand on their own. I wish he had gotten to hold a title like the European or Hardcore belt, but overall I’d say he has nothing to regret.

[@plshelpmeawkdough]

@ well yeah nobody really watches TV anymore, Its all about streaming. Get with the times man. Also Raw is still top 10 in ratings.

[@angryoldhead7034]

Seekarr yup he’s a fan favorite and everyone has to play a role. Not everyone can be a top guy. We love him and we’re grateful. He deserved more but sometimes it isn’t about that.

[@DiBiasehere]

He was Tremendous

[@musicfanhawk4523]

You are right!!

[@HeelsFTW]

And to this day, he still had one of the absolute best themes and entrances in wrestling.

[@debbiebrantley61]

I agree,only one better was stone colds,I always loved gangrels too

[@TheROB0TGuy]

I work closely with David here in Salem at WCWC. He truly is one of the most humbling guys, I’ve ever had the pleasure of knowing!

[@michaelmayberry9522]

Since nobody else seems to, I want to recognize your phenomenal production quality in this. The lighting, depth of field, audio quality, video quality. This is so overlooked, nice job!

[@brutallyhonest123]

More popular channels do so much less professional production. Totally agree this is top notch

[@evanabbott2737]

Hannibal does a great job👍

[@TheBadGuy235]

Loved Luna. I'll never forget one promo she cut where she threatened to turn Sable's Estee Lauder face into an Andy Warhol original. That just stuck with me.

[@ACS402010]

Lmao

[@thelegendofthem6120]

@@ACS402010 😘

[@marilynsgirl01]

Wish she woulda. I can’t stand Sable. She was the Pam Anderson of the WWF but she was a witch.

[@dkupke]

Its a sign of how much he and Luna loved each other that they knew they could not go on together. As he said, with all the drugs and partying they could have killed each other eventually-and it shows how much they cared to realize they could not go on like that.

[@lm8366]

I met them both in 2007. Gangrel was very nice and humble, always been one of my favorite wrestlers / characters. Became a fan of Luna when I first saw her at WM 9. She was one of the nicest people I’ve ever met in wrestling, engaging and respectful. She’s missed a great a deal. Hope Gangrel gets another run in WWE one day.

[@ArcaneAzmadi]

I was just thinking today that, if they wanted to give Gangrel one last run in the WWE, they could have Bray Wyatt return after the Ultimate Deletion, claiming that he was sent to some very dark and strange places after being thrown into the Lake of Reincarnation (Gangrel was originally booked as coming from "the Other Side of Darkness"), but he came back with the aid of someone he met there- an _old friend_ of Matt's (Matt and Jeff joined the New Brood with Gangrel in 1999 after Edge and Christian split from him). Then the arena goes dark except for the red lighting, the whispering starts, the ring of fire appears... any fans from the Attitude Era would _lose their fucking minds._

[@Youre_Right]

They tried. He failed the physical. WWE doesn’t take any risks hardly.

[@paulmallon9033]

I don't know about a huge reaction for Gangrels possible return, on one of the Halloween episodes the New Days music came on then suddenly replaced by the Brood music and out came the New Day dressed as the Brood with not much of a reaction from the crowd almost as if that crowd was unfamiliar with the Brood

[@Solraced]

Gangrel should have been European or IC champ in the attitude era

[@cheshire_skatkat9093]

Decarlos Davila I think Gangrel could had been much bigger if he were handled right. I mean like possibly undertaker or mankind big.

[@JimmyNotes]

I remember hearing an interview with Jim Ross where he stated that Gangrel was originally supposed to be the star out of everybody in The Brood but when The Brood spoke for the first time in an interview Gangrel's promo skills weren't very good whereas Edge nailed it. Ultimately it became obvious that edge was going to be the breakout star of the group.

[@MacStoker]

NO...SHOULD HAVE BEEN HARDCORE CHAMP....... that blood gimmick would fit perfectly, dont you agree?

[@blakenapier3125]

HARDCORE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE BELT GOLD WOULD FIT WELL FOR Him! He can defend it 24 hours a Day, 7 Days a Week

[@GabeGettinRich]

Decarlos Davila he was European champ wasn't he ?

[@jmgfx4161]

I feel for the guy. He was very honest and Luna didn't know how much she was respected, still is. She didn't have to live up to her uncle's level.

[@Ffeoli1039]

one of the most genuine dudes when it comes to wrestlers.

[@danielroninhernandez8119]

ONE OF THE MOST UNDERATED WRESTLERS OF ALL TIME.........GANGREL..........[RIP MS.VACHON].........

[@muruganmark888]

@Daniel I agree with you

[@samloomis4930]

Obviously I haven't met everyone in this world, but I will say "Gangrel" is one of the coolest people someone could ever meet. Very laid back, respectable, just a fucking cool dude!

[@jayboxerj]

Met him in Vegas. Such a cool laid back guy .

[@mattwicked6882]

The Brood needs to be in the HOF, that was one of the best Stables in WWF Attuide Era. The Blood Bath was awesome, makes me sad knowing these days are long gone and not coming back. Wishing good health towards all WWF/WWE superstars.

[@christinasavannah7992]

You can tell in his eyes he still loves her thats she really was his soulmate

[@BENNY_MAC]

I've seen a few Gangrel interviews and hes seems like a very nice and standup guy. Most ex wrestlers seem depressed and hateful when they do interviews. So its very cool to see someone like this.

[@mikeg2491]

I just discovered his youtube channel, he doesn’t get a lot of views but he still puts out consistent videos anyway because I think he just loves to share stories

[@memphisflyer8574]

I thought he'd be more .. I dunno .. weird? But he was super stable and coherent. I'm glad to see any wrestler from my teen years, still be able to conduct an interview. Great to see him. Was a great wrestler, great gimmick as well.

[@Citybrey]

Gangrel came into my club few years back when the WWE where at the 02. He was an absolute gentleman.

[@MrClawmaster]

She should have already been a WWE Hall of Fame.

[@blakenapier3125]

What?

[@shane-o4778]

Are you fucking joking? Lol. Not a chance

[@blakenapier3125]

Luna Vachon Nicole Bass Marianna Komlos and Chyna can't stay Dead forever

[@scottbreon9448]

She's already in the wrestling observer HOF which in my opinion is much more legit anyway. The WWE HOF is a fucking joke with the damn celebrity wing.

[@Resurge2K]

Scott Breon true the WWE HOF is a joke. It should just be wrestlers

[@scottbinns318]

I had the pleasure of meeting and working with Gangrel. He was up in Windsor, Ontario, Canada working with a local wrestling promotion and I was doing gopher/ring crew stuff and got to talk to him before the show. Cool guy. He REALLY wanted to do well and help the promotion. Luna wasn't there unfortunately.

[@jekel1]

Produced a lot of old wwe games and I have to say that this is the dude that I always looked forward to hanging out with. Felt he was one of the best dudes out there in the biz as far as good guys. Real dude... biggest respect...

[@commentcopbadge6665]

I had never seen a spike ddt until Gangrel did it. Awesome entrance. Awesome entrance music. Amazing gimmick with the Brood and the "blood baths" with the lights all going out.

[@troymoitt5248]

wow u can see in his eyes he is still hurt

Man you can tell Gangrel is dying the entire time. The strength it must have taken to not open full out ugly cry is amazing. It's clear that he loved her deeply.

[@skepchica]

That's guilt. He used her then there her away like trash. She never recovered.

[@bmcfad12]

In the 20 years since I first saw Gangrel on WWF, this is the first time I’ve ever heard him speak

Hannibal + Gangrel = awesome interview. #HannibalTV

[@MeltWithU]

I remember doing the show with you two, I think 2006, in Ocean City Maryland at the convention center with NWA/TNA. I was actually surprised at how down to earth she was, after hearing all of the stories. At least that day anyways. In any case, it was a pleasure working with you guys and meeting you. Between you and Duggan, Tom Brandy and everyone else on that card, it was a blast. I miss the business, but my neck and back would be completely obliterated had I not stopped. It was bad enough even then. In any case, I hope all is well. One of these days I’m going to get to your school and hang out for a few days. I haven’t taken a bump in years. For whatever reason, it always used to make my back feel better. Almost like a chiropractic adjustment. Lol.

[@Matmus]

What a nice guy. You can only wish the best for people like him.

[@shadowwarrior7218]

Man I miss Luna! That was one tough lady. She was one hell of a performer. You can tell he's still grieving for her. So sad.

[@undertaker666dead]

Its so cool that Gangrel still has his fangs.

[@RedCyanPhotos]

I love watching interviews with Gangrel! I met him nearly 5 years ago now, he was just the best! I really hope that he comes over to the UK to see us again soon! I know obviously he is so busy with wrestling and training and him getting married next year, I’m sure he will want to spend a lot more time in the US rather than travelling abroad. I was worried to hear about his numbness and injury recently, so I really hope he gets back healthy! I’m sure he’ll soon be cutting down on the wrestling and the travels to spend more time training students and with his new wife, but it will be awesome to get to see him at least one more time. When I met him my brother drove, as I didn’t have a driving license at the time (quite strange because it’s not in my county where we met him and I actually ended up going to that very same place to pass my driving test a couple of years later!) so now I drive myself there will be no rush and we can hang around to talk properly! I could tell he wanted us to stay especially since we followed his whole career since before WWF and he could tell we were genuine big fans, but unfortunately my brother had work the next day early. So please Gangrel come and visit us in the UK one more time! I don’t care where it is, I will drive miles to see you!!

[@fallofthewild2040]

Luna vs Sherri sums up my teenage years. It was awesome.

[@adrianrosado2223]

Jim Cornette had one of my favorite takes on Luna. He was comparing Luna to Sable, and said that Luna was “willing to go to the bone with a blade if it’d get the Business over.”

Luna deserves it more then Miss Jacqueline did in my opinion. She is much more memorable a character.

Looked like he was holding back tears. I can almost feel the pain (empathetic). He really loved her.

[@ladybfromnyc]

Gangrel is SUUUUUCH a sweetheart in person. I got to tell him what i would have told Luna if she was still here...and hand to god...he hugged me and said that if she was here, i would have made her cry with all i said. I feel she was COMPLETELY underrated and unappreciated in WWF/WWE....and if she was to be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame...that Sable should induct her cause if it wasnf for Luna jobbing like she did...Sable would have NOT been taken seriously AT ALL as a wrestler.

[@divcrfc]

I feel sorry for Gangrel he seems a good guy God bless him 😢😢😢😢

[@spacewurm]

Luna should have been a long-time WWF/WWE Women's Champion. Sable sucked and didn't deserve it.

1:43 - "This other lesbian girl." Pretty much confirmed from this and various other shoot interviews that Luna was bi. Nothing wrong with that though.

[@trissloan663]

I saw Gangrel give a wrestling fan; with low budget equipment and a one man operation channel; plenty of time and quality, like it was a major network. It was from the late 1990s and the interviewer was a stuttering, overweight, nerd with long hair and a mustache,dressed as a cowboy. Gangrel is a class act and very funny.

[@robbyrodriguez8538]

My deepest condolences

[@JcDizon]

Hmm I wonder, how come Luna Vachon is very rarely mentioned when people talk about legendary female wrestlers? I didn't watch wrestling back in the mid 90's so I don't really know much about her but she was in one of the WWF games for the SNES so surely, she might have been the top female wrestler in the WWF/WWE at some point.

[@j.w.s.toland931]

Please tell me there's a Daffney Unger v Luna match out there somewhere.

[@PhilMante]

Out of all the female wrestlers I liked, Luna was fucking awesome. Chyna & Beth Phoenix came close, but Luna will be the best for me..she embodied what pro wrestling truely is, fun, ridiculous character you would only see in a cartoon. No sex appeal, just pure fun.

I trained with gangrel! I have the up most respect for him! The truest wrestler that didn’t get the push he deserved in my opinion, one of the scariest guys in the ring when being trained but outside the ring was the coolest guy of all time, very humble and when I mean scary, you knew you were under his command otherwise he let you know that right off the bat. Had more knowledge then I could ever imagine being green as ever. When watching the movie the wrestler, it reminds me of him tremendously. He is the real deal, rikishi also ran the dojo, which he was awesome too, but gangrel really put the time in, knokxpro will be a bookmark for the rest of my life. Thanks gangrel, from Wood!

[@Strangethinkbox]

I didn’t think my intentions aimed towards changing anything about the attitude era, I was trying to explain how well Gangrel was as technical wrestler, watch the mania match against xpac, he could of have had some great matches we never got to see with many top guys. It’s not that I would want change, I would like to see more matches like that intercontinental title match against pac, which truly shows how good of worker he was on telling a story in the ring

[@Strangethinkbox]
