Was there ever any discussion for Rick Martel to become Intercontinental champion as "The Model."

When he looks back on his career as "The Model" Rick Martel, where in his opinion does career rank in terms of highlights, also did he like working as a heel or the baybyface in wrestling:

"I was the babyface for 15 years. I kinda got tired of it. I always wanted to be the heel cause my brother was the heel, and I grew up around the villians, traveling with villians. I wanted to do it sometime, when I changed and became " The Model" it was great, it gave me the creative juices, and that second push I needed."
