Harley Race was one of the toughest, most feared pro wrestlers of his era, mostly because of his surly attitude and willingness to fight backstage.

He is also one of the most celebrated performers of any era. Much like John Cena, he could make people stars just by defending his title against them. Men like Ric Flair owe their lengthy careers and fame to Harley Race in many ways.

Race had become bitter towards the wrestling industry at one point, and participated in a documentary to reveal how wrestling was actually 'fake'. This led him to be blacklisted for years by many companies, though now the ice seems to have thawed a bit.

The race is also famous for managing Vader during his WCW run and for his time as King Harley Race in WWE's classic era.
