Paul Taylor is an American retired professional wrestler better known by his ring name Terry Taylor or The Red Rooster. In 1988, Taylor signed with the World Wrestling Federation. Taylor soon acquired Bobby "The Brain" Heenan as his manager and was rebranded "The Red Rooster", a gimmick which saw him don red tights and ring coat and, later as a babyface, style his hair like a rooster's comb and strut like a rooster.

On the January 7, 1989 episode of Saturday Night's Main Event XIX, the Rooster lost a match to Tito Santana due to being distracted by an argument with Heenan. Following the loss, Heenan slapped Taylor. Taylor, tired of Heenan's demeaning style of coaching, turned against his manager and attacked him. He became a face as a result, though he retained the Red Rooster gimmick.

This started a fued with Heenan's new protege, "The Brooklyn Brawler". Eventually leading to the Rooster defeating the Brawler on the March 11, 1989 episode of Saturday Night's Main Event XX and then defeating Heenan in a 30-second squash at WrestleMania V. Taylor would then primarily be used to put over other talent. While he still earned victories against enhancement talent, he was usually on the losing end against established stars.

Taylor left the federation in June 1990, and "The Red Rooster" gimmick that he had used has left a long lasting very negative effect on Taylor's career. He returned to the WWF on September 21, 1992 as "Terrific Terry Taylor". He was still being used to put over other talent & left in August of 1993. He had a couple more short stints with the WWF/WWE but had similar results in the ring. He became more involved in commentary & behind the scenes activities over the years.
