Curtis Michael Hennig, better known under his WWF/WWE ringname Mr. Perfect was an US-American wrestler.
Bio[edit | edit source]
Son of Larry "The Axe" Hennig, Mr. Perfect received his training straight from his old man and indeed would briefly form a tag team with him while still signed up with the American Wrestling Association. He only took on his popular ring name when he joined then-WWF in 1988, but the 8 years he spent there until 1996 lifted him to a level comparable to that of icons like Hulk Hogan or Bret Hart.
Despite of the somewhat boisterous name, Mr. Perfect was damn close to being exactly that - combining high agility, physical strength, and especially an insane amount of technical skill into one packet, while simultaneously having the charisma and know-how to do off-stage business. That he never bothered to take up and outlandish gimmick an marketed himself by just being damn good at what he was doing speaks for itself.
Unfortunately, Hennig passed away from a cocaine overdose on February 10th, 2003; six weeks from his 45th birthday.
In 8chanmania[edit | edit source]
Mr. Perfect fought in 8chanmania XXIII. While he didn't make it past the prelims, getting thrown out by Canadian crippler Chris Benoit is nothing to look down upon.
Trivia[edit | edit source]
- In private, Hennig used to be what some people might call a 'cheeky cunt'. One particular incident saw him taking a shit in the baby potty of a couple he was friends with, and then convincing them it was their toddler who had taken the massive dump.
