From the promotional announcement/FAQ Klei posted on the forums and the Steam store page they made it a point that the Gorge would contain new skins, emotes, items and more.

The Gorge is a free limited time 3-player co-op challenge with tons of new skins, emotes, items and more. Your goal is to cook and offer food on the Altar of Gnaw, but you'll need all the cooks in the kitchen to keep it fed, so work together to survive!
From what I can tell there isn't a single new emote in the curio cabinet. Are the emotes available to everyone (like /sit and /dance) and thus not in the curio cabinet? Did the team forget to add them to the Gorge? Will they be added at a later date? Were new emotes cut but the writer/editor not know, or forgot, to take them out of the FAQ?
Links to the announcements. I would really like an answer since I was expecting new emotes and.......it looks like we received zero emotes.

Edit: Here is another post (By JoeW) where he also makes a point of the event containing new emotes.
