I was just dwelling on the idea presented by Toby, the communications director in the West Wing of the other Bartlet. For those of you who haven't seen the West Wing, it's a series about the daily lives of the president and his cabinet in the aforementioned part of the White House. In one episode, Toby talks to the president about 'the other Bartlet,' a side of his personality that's questionable.

Well, I'd like to expand upon that idea by offering my perceptions of the other sides of the wrestler's personalities, past and present...

Brie Bella: a caring, warm hearted person who would give as much of herself as she could without wanting anything in return, other than the good will of others so they can carry out her acts of kindness in turn, a flawed person who learns from her mistakes and openly shows concern when she does the wrong thing and does her best to do better in future.

The other Brie Bella: a vain, oftentimes selfish person, who raises her finger high above her head as she walks, believing herself to be the centre of the world, someone who thinks that her actions, her ideas, are the most important because she believes she works so hard for what she wants, Makes decisions based on what she thinks is right first and foremost.

Brock Lesnar: An honest, kind of heart, doggedly determined man, who will do whatever he can and go as far as he can to support and further his family, a conscientious fighter who will let nothing stand in his way, be it big or small.

The other Brock Lesnar: A bloodthirsty man, who will gladly squash abseloutely anyone, as long as he gets what he needs, a man who loves to hit people because it makes him feel stronger and better with every blow he lands.

Kane: A dedicated worker, whose devotion and endurance is matched only by the wresters who have stayed in the game as long as he has, a devoted husband and father, an intelligent and capable man.

The other Kane: a dominant male who will stop at nothing to manipulate or victimize women and destroy men.

Goldberg: A force of nature that sought to burn through the world of wrestling, giving it his all for the fans and to cement his legacy in history, a hard working athelete who believes in doing his very best every single day of his life.

The other Goldberg: Hot tempered, willing to hit people hard in order to derail them so he can continue on course for his intended location, even to the point where he hurts himself badly, not shy to make commentary about killing someone to eliminate what he sees as a great source of irritation.

Hulk Hogan: a driven, tenacious man who is willing to explore many avenues of the commercial side of the wrestling business to advance himself, fierecely loyal to his friends and his children, a man who honors his word when he has to give it and will lie to protect others when he doesn't need to.

The other Hulk Hogan: a meddling, self-conscious cynic with delusions of megalomania that doesn't stop to weigh the effects of his actions, fully prepared to go back on his word if he feels the people he gives it to aren't worthy of his respect or fall short of his expectations, a man who would have an affair with the wife of a friend of his if their marriage is open.

These are but a few examples. Please, feel free to give your own and let's see what kind of insight we can give each other.

Isn't this describing wrestlers as they are when they are a heel or a face?

Yes, but we should remember that the wrestlers put a great deal of effort into portraying their characters and this has to be driven by something. I say that what we see is a partial reflection of the wrestlers themselves. As scripted as their actions are, they perform them and I think we can feel the vibes in what they do enough to tell that they are acting, but there has to be something of them at work. Their body language and the look in their eyes are two places to look for this.

Kevin Owens- Fights for he's family
- Has no remorse and thinks he is always in the right.


Never been a face in WWE. So it isn't just describing them as a face and a heel.
