babyfaces
Good guys, squared-circle
Babyfaces are wrestlers who play heroic or sympathetic characters, the good guys audiences are meant to cheer for.
The term comes from the youthful, innocent appearance such characters traditionally project.
In professional wrestling, babyfaces oppose heels (villains), and performers often switch between these roles throughout their careers.
The singular babyface also describes anyone with a youthful, innocent-looking face: He's thirty but has such a babyface.
