The Pegasus Kid
Chris Benoit had been the man behind the mask. When he played the Pegasus Kid, he was trying to launch his career by working in the Japanese wrestling scene back then. In the end, he spent 22 years as a pro wrestler. The nature of his death was quite disturbing and shocked a lot of fans.
Mr. America
We have no idea how anyone can ever forget Hulk Hogan. When it comes to legends, he is definitely at the top of the list. He wore a mask and used to go by the ring name Mr. America. He wore a mask prior to WrestleMania XIX. However, he went on to be a lot more popular unmasked and forgot about it!
