• When Greg takes a consequent hit by his opponent, his hat falls on the ground and stays here until the end of the match.
• Greg's theme "Return to The Wild" appears in Bloody Roar 1, 2, and 3 despite Greg himself only appearing in the first game.
• Some of his moves and aspects of his playstyle have been given to Stun the Insect, who debuted in the next game, Bloody Roar 2.
• When the fighter G was first revealed for Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition, some theories started to know who he was exactly, one of the most common theories was that G was, in fact, Greg from Bloody Roar ^[1]. This theory was revealed false as G was only a new original character for the Street Fighter series.
