The fact he clearly spits instead of swallowing.

I'd have to say it's his incredible porn directing career as part of the "New Porn Order", directing such classics as 'Miami Rump Shakerz 2'.

No doubt they were forbidden from speaking by the Undertaker because he actually heard them speak.
Taker: "So what's the deal with you guys? You're vampires or something?"
Gangrel: "Well, ha ha, you sssssee...we exissst to blur the line between humanity and the world beyond this one, ha ha ha ha! We --"
Taker: "Alright, that's enough. No more talking...like, ever. It's forbidden."

I'm still heartbroken his return during the JBL and taker fued was only a one time deal.
I'm also gutted that he never became Kevin Thorns manager as rumoured.

Honestly? Nothing. Gangrel was average in just about every regard. He's an entrance with fake fangs, a blood goblet and frilly shirts. Yet somehow he ruled.

The greatest possible main event at Mania is Gangrel vs R-Truth in a Steel cage surrounded by an aquarium filled with sharks.

The theme, the entrance, and the environment being almost completely different than it is today. Creative had yet to develop that "f*** the midcard" mentality that's so despised today, so he and many others had quite a bit to do.
If he came up today, he'd more than likely be a JTTS, if he managed to get on TV in the first place.

Joke thread or not the guy has one of my favorite Irish whips of all time. I love how he executed it.

Gangrel are one of my favorites. I love their curse, I love their backstory and the connection to gypsie folklore, their bloodlines, dark ages or modern are all interesting, I love their rivalry with the Tzimisce and their comraderie with the Nosferatu and Brujah, protean is one of the best and most versatile powers in the game, I love how they're the only clan who managed to split wholesale from the Camarilla and get away with it. I hope that I get to play another Vampire game soon so I can make my next character a Gangrel because it's one of the few clans I never actually played myself and I finally have an idea for a Gangrel character I want to bring to life.
That said, Gangrel the wrestler was fat and useless.

He was actually quite good in the ring IMO ! He honestly was, had a great combo of mat technical style and some high flying style thrown in. But then he drank too much diabetic blood.

He was actually quite good in the ring IMO ! He was sort of odd in that he sometimes seemed really middle of the road, but he had had some moves he added a nice oomph to, like the aforementioned Irish whip and his elbow drop that he'd add a turn to. I remember someone saying that was actually a trademark of a past wrestler, but I can't recall who. If I had to complain about him, it's that his moveset was oddly traditional given the gimmick. I'd figure a vampire would be a little more brutal, but his offense wasn't really savage in the least and more fundamental.

I laughed at Edge's expression during Gangrel speaking. He's very, very clearly thinking "ohhhh shit"
