It isn't really unusual that Gaia would be evil- look at Greek mythology. In those stories, Mother Earth was one badass evil woman back at the dawn of time. She encouraged her son to kill her husband, mutilate him, and throw him into the void... and when her grandson (Zeus) did the same thing to her son, she married the Abyss (tartarus) and birthed a whole new race just to get vengeance on him. (And yes, I learned about the Gigantomachy THROUGH the new percy jackson series, but I looked it up later to confirm that it was in fact a real thing.)
I actually kinda like the idea that Gaia would be evil. It sort of gives sense to the narrative of human civilization... or, in Azeroth's case Troll civilization and then a whole bunch of damn foriegners show up and take their land. ;)
