Like an example of someone who was good might be Hulk Hogan. He has quite the reputation of a politician and the fact The Nasty Boys were wrestling on national TV this decade kind of shatters any doubts of this.
As for someone who is the inverse of this...I've heard Edge.
Although that comes from a Raven shoot where he's bitter toward Edge, so that might not be that reliable. He said he asked Edge about going to the bosses to ask them about working with Raven since Raven was in lower midcard hell at the time. Edge said he would, but Raven thinks he never did. Raven said, Edge was also very good friends with Johnny Swinger, but never went to bat for him as far as getting into the WWF goes.
Also, I always find it weird that CM Punk was one of the biggest wrestling stars on the planet while his best friend got released from the company after a cup of coffee. I think that has less to do with Punk being a shitty friend though and more to do with him having no actual pull. IIRC he tried to get Cabana some auditions as a commentator, but things never panned out.
