In the AWA he was loved as Larry "The Ax" Hennig's son.
In the WWE and WCW he was a great heel with a tremendous look.
One of the all time great mat wrestlers.

They were one bad ass clique. Maybe the precursor to DX.
Michael Hayes was great on the mic and could wrestle.
Terry Gordy was the enforcer of the group.
Buddy Roberts was just plain mean.
Together they formed one great tag team.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Triple H, Chyna, The New Age Outlaws and X-Pac.
They were part of the Attitude Era and knew how to play to the crowd.
They definite pulled off some great stunts and catch phrases.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Whether you like them or don't like them, you learned to love them because they were the best thing going in the 1980s.
And that was the truth.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
He has classic feuds with Hulk Hogan and Jimmy Snuka back in the day and the advent of Hulkamania.
Piper was also a classic heel in the NWA in Mid Atlantic Championship Wrestling.
But even as a heel, he won fans over.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Love him or hate him, he was one of the best heels of all time.
A classic wrestler who was the "Dirtiest Player in the Game" and he proved that night in and night out. He would do whatever he had to do to retain his title and usually got himself counted out of disqualified to sell for an opponent and put them over
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Once a snobbish body builder, anyways a snobbish body builder.
He never was a face in the industry and used his look and persona to get over many times.
Rude was a classic heel. Men wanted to be him. Women wanted to be with him.
And he was as underrated as they come.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Charter members of the NWO. They changed the course of the wrestling and proved it was "cool" to follow the bad guys.
They took the approach of Steve Austin and moved it three steps further.
They were "cool" and everyone who followed WCW knew it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Never have we seen someone like McMahon, who plays a character on screen for his company to help promote his business.
Genius, I say.
He is so good on the mic and so skilled in the art of catch and release, he is almost one of "them".
Now that he is not on screen as much, he is missed.
And his character will forever be etched as a "heel" with appeal.
