Never heard of him having rivals, just jealousy when he was bumped up to Capo.
Never heard him having rivals either. That's very rare... He ruled 13-14 years without a plot on his leadership.
Why was there jealousy when he became a captain?? Wasn't he and Tom Lucchese close?

Don't think Gigante ever fronted for anyone; I did read he was Consigliere but I'm skeptical about that.
Fat Tony Salerno. Frank Tieri; Thomas Eboli; Catena; Lombardo; Miranda. I never know any of their positions. It's confusing.
