In real-life (not kayfabe), who are the true good-guys and who are the true bad-guys?
Obviously, none of us know these wrestlers personally, but you can give answers based on wrestlers' interviews, fan stories, or books, etc. I'll start:
JERKS
1). CM Punk easily tops the list. Unnecessarily gave a nasty, profanity-laced interview in which he bad mouthed WWE employees a few years ago, and some wrestlers have spoken badly about him.
2). Ultimate Warrior. Bret Hart in his book spoke about the way Warrior always stayed away from the other wrestlers by using private jets and private locker rooms at shows, like a snob. Bret also recalls a time when a cancer-stricken kid, with no hair on his head, came with his family backstage with Warrior paint on his face, yet Warrior blatantly refused to speak to the child when every other wrestler did.
3). 1990s Shawn Michaels. I shouldn't have to explain, right?
4). JBL. He bullied smaller wrestlers backstage (e.g. Brian Kendrick, Paul London), as suggested by Bob Holly's book and various interviews.
NICE-GUYS
1). Chris Benoit. Yes, he-who-shall-not-be-named-on-WWE-shows-ever-again tops this list. I've heard many fans say that Benoit was always super-friendly during autograph sessions, as he would ask people their names, ask where they're from, and make jokes, etc. even after security informed him that he needed to wrap up the autograph session.
2). Post-2002 Shawn Michaels and Sting --- Both are born-again Christians.
3). Goldberg. Bret in his book describes him as a sweetheart, despite Goldberg's being the one to end Bret's career and leave him with life-long injuries. He says that Goldberg emotionally apologized to him many, many times, which doesn't always happen (see Owen Hart's never calling Austin in the hospital).
4). Eddie Guerrero. Supposedly befriended everyone in the locker room during his time, and he was known to be a charming prankster.
Who else?
