He's a top 5 talent if all time. What helped make him so legendary?

I dunno about Top 5 Talent, but he definitely had an indescribable presence, an aura if you will, that made him stand out despite his unspectacular in-ring skills. Which was only magnified by that entrance.

The way he defiantly shrugged off the potential dangers of blood-borne illness.

The entrance and theme is one of the greatest WWE has ever made.

the entrance alone made him a legend
Just the overall walk and how he bounced his head to the song
he fully embraced it
Edit: I watched a shoot where someone (Vince?) didn't like how we smiled and walked to the ring but he did it anyways

He could put on a great match with ANYBODY (see his classics with Test and Al Snow) and he mentored three future world cchampions, which ain't bad.

Which was only magnified by that entrance. I think you're confusing "aura" with "layer of fat" (aww, I made myself feel bad) Seriously, it's the music, it's aaalll in the music.

I loved how when in 2000, after they'd completely given up on pushing him, he still had his full extremely elaborate and expensive-looking entrance. He'd come out with all these theatrics and his badass theme looking like a massive star... just to lose to Crash Holly in the opening match on Jakked/Metal. Similarly, there was some overlap between Fandango's descent into jobberdom and him still having the curtains and the pyro silhouette.
Also, hehe, I've never been more disappointed by a promo, hehehehe, than I was by the Brood's 'breaking their ssssssssilence' interview. I imagine it's what it must have been like in the 1920s when the talkies came in and you realised your favourite silent movie actor sounded like a chipmunk.

His gimmick was something very unique for the time and he could actually go in the ring. Wish they'd let him pair with Luna earlier.
