Gangrel
Net Worth: $500,000
David William Heath went by Gangrel in the ring and was known for his rock-and-roll vampire style, with his signature fangs and long blonde hair. He made his WWF debut in the early 90s, after being trained in Florida by Boris Malenko himself. On both of his initial televised matches in '94 and his last in '95, he was defeated by the 1-2-3 Kid (Syxx).
Heath returned to the WWF in '98, around the height of the vampire craze in pop culture. Officials believed that his gimmick would sell more tickets and bring in more viewers. His entrance included drinking “blood” from a grail and spitting it into the air before jumping into the ring. These days, he’s still wrestling sporadically on the independent circuit. He’s also made a few appearances in film and on television, like his disturbing role as a prisoner in "The Human Centipede 3."

The former wrestler was part of a group who became the subject of a documentary film released in 1999 called "Beyond the Mat."
Roberts has been with the WWE off and on ever since he first signed with them in 1986. In 2014, he appeared on an (Old School) episode of Raw with his python in tow. Later that same year, he was inducted into the WWE’s Hall of Fame. The former wrestler has dealt with a number of personal issues, including drug and alcohol addiction, for which he has completed several rehab programs.

Leslie still makes an appearance here and there, but he’s retired from getting in the ring.
