Dana Brooke spotted training with 54-year-old WWE legend after TNA debut [Photos]
The former WWE Superstar Ash By Elegance (FKA Dana Brooke) made her TNA Wrestling debut this past weekend and was recently spotted at a training facility with a 54-year-old veteran.
The legend in question is Gangrel, best known for his dark persona and being the leader of the popular The Brood stable alongside the current AEW stars Adam Copeland and Christian Cage.
The 54-year-old legend also made a surprise appearance alongside The Hardys (Jeff Hardy & Matt Hardy) on an episode of AEW Rampage in 2022. The ex-Broodmaster has found a new calling, teaching aspiring wrestlers how to unleash their fury in the ring at Coastal Championship Wrestling as the head trainer.
Brooke was released from the Stamford-based company in September 2023 alongside several other superstars. Following a four-month hiatus, she returned to pro wrestling at the TNA's Hard to Kill PPV on January 13 and goes by the name Ash by Elegance.
Coastal Championship Wrestling's Twitter account pulled back the curtain, revealing Ash in a training session under the watchful eye of the legendary Gangrel.
"Omg thank you for having me again and teaching me some new fun exciting finishers 😉 !! I’ll be back soon," Brooke replied.
