10 WWE Superstars You Totally Forgot Were A Babyface
6. Earthquake
The inclusion of Earthquake at number 6 already marks the third super heavyweight wrestler that's appeared on the list thus far. What makes this surprising is that, especially under the leadership of Vince McMahon, talents tipping the scales at 300+ lbs were typically used as heels throughout their WWE careers, the idea being that these larger athletes can more easily get heat with their size advantage and are often booked as "monsters", coupled with the struggle of the heel to garner sympathy.
With that said, it may come as a surprise to see Earthquake follow André and Bam Bam as a former babyface superstar.
Earthquake debuted in that monster role, given a huge push by knocking Hulk Hogan out of action following WrestleMania VI. Quake then continued his dominance through the tag team ranks with fellow super heavyweight Typhoon (fka Tugboat).
Almost inexplicably, however, The Natural Disaster were turned babyface as an emergency after it became a concern that the Legion Of Doom would be leaving WWE. While that proved to be a bit premature, Earthquake's career went downhill soon after.
Despite winning the tag title with Typhoon in 1992, Quake never regained the success he found as the natural monster heel.
