Gangrel is currently training Paige VanZant for her AEW in-ring debut.
While the former WWE Superstar recently revealed that he hadn’t spoken to her yet, the two of them met the following day when she showed up at his Coastal Championship Wrestling facility to begin training.
During the latest episode of his “Fangin N Bangin” podcast, Gangrel revealed that he believes she has a lot of potential and will make it. He said,
“I’ve met her and had a couple of training sessions with her. She’s definitely bad ass. She has a lot of talent. She’s very coachable. She has a passion for it. AEW should be happy in the long run with what’s going to go on with her. I don’t know if they signed her for a year or what the deal was, but she definitely has a lot of potential, definitely has talent. She’ll come along pretty well and pretty fast. What she’s learned in two sessions, let’s say three hours to be generous with those sessions, those three hours, it’s taken me three months to teach some people with talent. Six months for others. The fact that she’s a professional athlete and a ballerina. Dancing With The Stars is no joke. You have to be super disciplined and learn routines, dances, footwork, and form. All that comes into play. She’s making my job easy. I appreciate that. Hopefully it continues to be easy, she goes on to do great things, and I can say, ‘Oh, I had a part in that’.”
