Seems like it.
Maybe its because I was 12 when Gangrel was around with the brood and everything but I was always a huge fan of him. I know he is not that good of a wrestler but his character and everything was awesome and I think he couldve been a bigger star than he was.
Never see anyone talk about him or another Gangrel fan though.

You aren't alone broski. I loved Gangrel. I marked hard for The Brood, thought they were a great stable.

Great theme, unique look. I really miss characters in wrestling. Gangrel was great.

Loved the gimmick/character and especially the entrance. He was never going to steal a show and get past the midcard or anything but he did what he did well enough and the character and entrance was unique and intriguing.

Gangrel was cool back then.
Not only did he have one of the best entrance themes, he also had arguably the best entrance routine of the Attitude Era.
Him and D'Lo were my go-to guys when it came to creating new wrestlers in WrestleMania 2000 for the N64.

I remember being amazed at how Implant DDT. He didn't to Scott Taylor in his first or second match and he planted him.

Gangrel was great until they let him speak, and he went full deer in headlights.
Edge grabbed the Mic to help him out, but it instantly changed the career trajectory for both of them.

Always liked Test too Seanny, and thought he was underrated. He wasn't ever going to be a huge star or the greatest talent, especially when guys like HBK, Taker, Angle, Rock, Austin, etc. were around, but I felt like he could have been bigger than he was, especially in a different era. A mid to upper card guy that you could occasionally throw into the main event or world title scene if needed, and while he wouldn't steal the show or anything, he also wouldn't feel totally out of place if done right.

Fuckin loved Test. I thought he could have been ECW Champion. Not a true "main event guy," but in that era of three world titles, he could have had a run.

When Ernest Miller bought Glacier's entrance, I don't know why but to this day it's still one of the funniest things in all of wrestling to me.

What do you think of a storyline where WWE tells Mideon that he cant run around naked because of television ratings and if he doesnt get dressed, he will be fired.
Mideon says, "I dont have any clothes man" and steals Viscera's large black trenchcoat. Big Vis then goes after Mideon for his coat and they go back and forth stealing it from each other.
Then they set up a PPV match for the coat. The coat is placed at the entrance ramp and the two stars battle in the ring, whoever gets up the ramp first and grabs the coat, wins the right to wear the coat in the WWE.
Eventually Big Vis takes out Mideon and goes to grab the coat off the tack at the top of the stage, when Steve Blackman jumps out of the coat (he was hiding in it) and starts beating Big Vis up.
