10 WWE Attitude Era Stars fans forgot about

Gangrel

#2 Gangrel

avid William Heath was trained by one of the greatest ring technicians in wrestling history; Professor Boris Malenko (father of Man of a thousand holds Dean Malenko.) he spent some time wrestling under a mask using the name Destruction.

Heath would go on to achieve some success on the independent and Japanese circuits. Eventually, he met his future wife Luna Vachon--who ironically was involved with his tag team partner--and the two of them developed a new gimmick based on The Lost Boys film.

Now calling himself the Vampire Warrior, Heath had a brief run in ECW before being signed with WWE for a second time (during his first tenure he was used as an enhancement talent.) This time, he would be groomed for an upper mid card role and given his own stable of lackeys, who turned out to be Edge and Christian, known collectively as the Brood.

While a skilled wrestler, Heath was more well known for his groovy entrance through a ring of fire and spitting 'a mysterious red fluid' into the eyes of his opponents.

Why no one remembers him: Gangrel's vampire gimmick was a definite throwback to an earlier era of wrestling, while the Attitude Era was more about wrestlers being more 'realistic' characters. Also, people into vampire fandom usually don't watch pro wrestling, so the gimmick didn't appeal to the exact demographic it had been designed for.
