Modified 06 Feb News. Under any circumstances, he could work. Now, what sounds bigger to you? Joe Hennig or Curtis Axel? In today's time of beefed up physiques and high impact maneuvers, it made me search my mental database for a single performer that could still be relevant in the squared circle of today. After a successful run in the AWA, in which he won the tag team titles with Scott "don't call me Razor Ramon" Hall, and also held the AWA world title for over a year, Hennig packed his bags and headed to the then-WWF,with whom he had had a less than successful run several years before.

After assuming the role of "Mr. Perfect," a gimmick originally created for Terry "I regret ever performing as the Red Rooster" Taylor, Hennig began to show the signs of brilliance that planted the seeds for smug heels of the future to emulate.

A two-time Intercontinental champ in the WWF, Hennig was never able to win the "big one," but proved any countless occasions that he could go out to the ring, and hang with the superstars of the time, including Hulk Hogan and Hart.

Hennig's in-ring performances were second to none, and his matches with Hart, himself an excellent wrestler, are mentioned by analysts when discussing the greatest matches of all-time. But it was Hennig's mic work that set him apart from his fellow wrestlers. Their match is considered one of his best and is widely thought of as one of the best matches in SummerSlam history. Initially siding with the Horsemen, Hennig turned on Flair and joined the nWo, later joining Kevin Nash in the Wolfpac when the faction split.

Toward the end of his run, Hennig formed a mid-card group called The West Texas Rednecks, who feuded with Master P yes, that happened and the No Limit Soldiers for a short time before the storyline was dropped.

He made his final appearance in WCW in Hennig wrestled in various promotions over the next couple of years. He was wildly over with the crowd and performed quite well, which earned him a new, full-time contract with the company.

On February 10, , ahead of a scheduled match at the Florida State Fair, Curt Hennig was found dead in his hotel room in Tampa as a result of acute cocaine intoxication.
