A lot of (main) Kamen Riders are on the brink of turning evil or losing control, but they ultimately always decide on using their power to help others.
I think this was also mentioned in the two special episodes of Wizard.

^Smart woman. And she's right. Kamen Rider, the original Kamen Rider, was created from evil. Shocker kidnapped Hongo, brainwashed him, and turned him into a cyborg killing machine they were going to call Kamen Rider. But he was saved before that happened, just not before he was made into Kamen Rider. So with his mind intact he set out to dismantle Shocker.

And that makes for a much more dynamic story. Overcoming the evil that created what you use to save lives. Look at Kouta, our current Kamen Rider. He's overcoming the evil that created the Lockseeds and his Driver from the very first episode. Because he knows that destroying two-thirds of humanity isn't a plan. It's genocide.
