WWE legend and 'pro wrestling vampire' looks unrecognizable with new look

WWE hero Gangrel has swapped his vampire fangs for a more conventional look.

The 54-year-old professional wrestler was very popular during the legendary Attitude Era from 1997 until 2002 when Vince McMahon's promotion used edgy content to rival then foes WCW.

The American grappler formed the famous Brood stable in 1998, which was a group performing as a clan of vampires.

The Florida native donned blond hair and a white shirt and wore scary fangs to look as sinister as possible.

The heavyweight teamed up with the talented tag team of Edge and Christian and together they sent chills down every fan's spine.

The trio would make their way to the squared circle by rising through a ring of fire via an elevated stage floor, with Gangrel carrying a chalice of fake blood.

The popular wrestler would drink from that cup, and sometimes share it with his teammates, before spitting it to the crowd.

The Brood would often play mind games with their rivals by giving them a blood bath and covering them with a red concoction that fell from the rafters.

The stable lasted for a year until it disbanded in 1999 but Edge would go on to pay tribute at times during his most recent stint with WWE before his exit in August.

Gangrel is now semi-retired as hasn't competed since last year at Wolverhampton during an independent show hosted by Over the Top Wrestling.

The blond-haired performer also made a couple of appearances at AEW in 2020 and 2022 when he teamed up with the Hardy Boyz.

Gangrel now looks rather different than his glory years as he got rid of his sinister look but has held on to his bleach blonde hair.

He also appeared in an episode of Vice's Dark Side of the Ring to talk about his ex-wife and WWE legend Luna Vachon with whom he was married from 1994 until 2006.
