The Resume

    (October 13, 1926-August 30, 2008)
    Birth name is Wladek Kowalski
    Former WWE (then WWWF) U.S. Tag Team Champion and WWE Tag Team Champion Wrestled for the WWE, NWA and AWA

Why he might be annoying:

    When he spoke, his accent makes it hard to understand what he said.
    He had a big nose and very big ears.
    He became a heel when he legitimately severed a piece of Yukon Eric's ear after hitting him with a knee drop.
    He was one of many wrestlers to have an 'Executioner' gimmick.
    While appearing on a talk show, host Don Lane kept talking about wrestling being fake, so Kowalski applied his claw hold onto Lane and it garnered him mainstream headlines.
    He constantly bashed two of his former students, Hunter Hearst-Helmsley and Chyna, because he's ashamed at what they've become.

Why he might not be annoying:

    Many claim him to be one of the greatest all around wrestlers in the history of the sport.
    He owned and operated a well-respected wrestling school where he trained many future wrestlers including Hunter Hearst-Helmsley, Chyna, Perry Saturn, A-Train, John Studd and Christopher Nowinski.
    He was one of wrestling's greatest heels and was the most hated man in wrestling during his time.
    His tag team with John Studd, known as The Executioners, was a highly praised team and they were named Tag Team of the Year in PWI in 1976.
    He became the fourth man to be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame, The Professional Wrestling Hall of Fame, and the Wrestling-Observer Hall of Fame.
    WWE named him one of the 50 greatest wrestlers in the history of the company.
