Grom is an orc who is really good at Drinking The Bad. And as you might have guessed, every time he drinks The Bad, everyone gets screwed over. He knows this, but he continues to drink The Bad whenever Thrall isn’t looking (because Thrall is, as we all know, infamously bad at choosing who should lead the Horde in his absence)
You would think that Grom could avoid this whole scenario by deciding to, you know, not drink The Bad. Unfortunately, do you know what happens when he doesn’t drink The Bad? We get an entire fecking expac where he’s the villain.
Poor Grom. Ruins everything if he drinks The Bad, and still ruins everything if he doesn’t. He went and passed that trait on to his son, too. Keep on doin’ your thing, Hellscream family! (Actually maybe not, it’s getting kind of old by this point.)

It seems like that no matter the timeline, that bloodline is doomed to war stuff.
