About
The "Gul'dan offer" is an image macro in which Gul'dan makes an offer towards Grommash Hellscream, as to where Grommash anwers "And what, Gul'dan, must we give in return?", to which Gul'dan pulls back his hood and says "Everything".
Origin
The image macro originates from the trailer for World of Warcraft: Warlords of Draenor. In the trailer, Gul'dan is seen offering Grommash Hellscream a cup, which contains the blood of Mannoroth the Destructor, to which he adds "Drink, Hellscream. Claim your destiny. You will all be conquerors.". The screen blurs and you can see Garrosh Hellscream standing in the background of Grommash. Then, in response, Grommash answers: "And what, Gul'dan, must we give in return?". At this point Gul'dan pulls back his hood, revealing his red gaze, and exclaims: "Everything.". This leads to Grommash pouring the blood out of the cup, to which Gul'dan grunts. An evil laughter would then be heard in the background and Mannoroth comes forth, asking: "You, would reject this gift?". A battle then ensues between Grommash and Mannoroth.

A few minutes after the cinematic was released, a thread appeared on Reddit's /r/WoW board, MMO-champion[3] and also on wow-europe[1][4], where the cinematic[2] was posted. This prompted users to writing different parodies of the conversation in the comments.
Spread
The image macro soon spread to other sites, including 4chan and MMO-champion, where the template was posted and parodies were made in the thread.
