No matter how much the business changes, there will always be a place for great workers. However, Curt Hennig was much more than just a brilliant mat technician with the selfless ability to put his opponents over. He was far more spectacular than that. Before he debuted in the WWF as Mr. Perfect, Hennig had already been singled out for great things. The son of wrestling star Larry The Axe Hennig, Curt had enjoyed a substantial run as The AWAs (American Wrestling Association) World Heavyweight Champion, after he upended veteran grappler Nick Bockwinkel for the belt. So, by the time Mr. Perfect first appeared on WWF screens, Curt Hennig was already established as a world-class professional wrestler. During his run with the WWF Intercontinental Championship (a watertight case can be made for Hennig as the greatest IC Champ of all time), Curt battled Bret Hart and put The Hitman over in a couple of star making bouts that boosted Harts stock and helped him become one of the all time greats in the process. Their match at the 1991 Summerslam event remains an eternal classic. Could Mr. Perfect make as big an impression on todays WWE? Arguably, he could make an even bigger one. With todays smarter fans generally enjoying athleticism and technical ability to a greater extent than their 1980s counterparts, Hennigs flawless matches and incredible moveset would gain him many fans. The IWC would champion him no end and his matches with Dolph Ziggler would be nothing short of wrestling masterclasses. Basically, Mr. Perfect was born to be a star, in any era.
