Introducing: Gangrel

Posted by admin in Gangrel

David Heath first appeared in ECW in 1995 for a short period, feuding with Tommy Dreamer.
Heath debuted in WWE in 1998 as Gangrel and quickly formed a gothic stable called The Brood with Edge and Christian.  Gangrel’s brood joined the Ministry of Darkness and later formed a new version of the group with the Hardy Boys. From 1999 Gangrel mainly competed as a singles wrestler until he was released from the WWE in 2001.

In 2002 Heath appeared in TNA as “The Vampire warrior”, making occasional appearances until 2003 while still making appearances in smaller independent companies.

Gangrel returned to the WWE in 2004 having a short feud with the Undertaker and in mid-2005 when Heath appeared in Ohio Valley Wrestling, before being released for reported excessive weight gain.

David Heath resigned to the WWE in 2006 and was expected to debut in the newly launched ECW, helping to fill a quota of “Sci Fi” characters. He is yet to appear, however on October 3, 2006 Raw commentator Jim Ross updated his blog on his personal website and mentioned ‘Gangrel may be appearing on tv soon’.

It is more than likely that ECW fans will see Gangrel in action on Tuesday Nights, with rumours of him either joining or feuding with Kevin Thorn appearing on numerous Wrestling newsites.
