10 Wrestling Moments More Terrifying When You Know The Truth

2. Gangrel Genuinely Thought He Was Going To Die - WWF Monday Night Raw, 1999

Keeping with The Demon of Death Valley, another deeply unsettling spot involving The Undertaker left one rather notable Brood member genuinely thinking they'd reached the end of the road on a 1999 edition of Monday Night Raw.

With Gangrel battling it out with the Ministry alongside his fellow Brood-mates on February 1's red show, the interference of the APA soon led to the fanged figure being horrifically hung up by a rope as 'Taker ominously watched on.

However, as Gangrel himself would later explain, the act of genuinely being dangled outside of the ring with his neck gripped in the "brand new" rope left him realising that he could be about to meet his maker.

In his own words when talking to X-Pac on his 1,2,360 show (H/T 411Mania.com):

"Boogers were out of my nose, belly was pushed out. I said goodbye to the world. I made peace with God."

In the end, Dennis Knight (aka Mideon) was able to save Gangrel from a grisly fate by helping take some pressure off his neck. Yet, an already frightening occurrence could've further gone down in infamy had the Brood leader been left to hang on his own just a little while longer.
