Keith Franke was a professional wrestler, best known as Adrian Adonis.

As Adonis, he would go through two distinct ring personnae in the 1980s: First, as a trash-talking biker clad in black leather and chains; and later as the effeminate "Adorable Adrian", with bleached hair, pink tights, and perfume (occasionally sprayed in the face of his opponents to blind them). He made the transformation in 1986 on Piper's Pit and gave his "retired" leather jacket to Roddy Piper. The two wrestlers would later be involved in a scripted fued, and at Wrestlemania III, Adonis would have his head shaved after losing to the equally effeminate Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake.
