Heel turns that didn't work

When they tried to make D-Bry into D-Wy

JR could of been one of the g.o.a.t. Manager if he went that route

 

[The_Unchosen_One]

The JR heel turn, with his own stupid announce table

God took half his face for that shyt alone

 

[Mantis Toboggan M.D.]

Be a star

AJ Styles

Prince of Phenomenal or AJ Flair?

When Rikishi did it for The Rock.

The Big Evil version of The Undertaker IMO sure He had some great moments of heel-dom during that time

- is that because you're better than me?



:55 seconds in.

- dragging Hogan on the motorcycle




- beating the shyt outta David Flair while telling him he was beating the shyt out of him.



Starts at 5:20


but by and large nobody wanted to/was willing to boo him by then.

It freshened him up for sure. It was just wild seeing some of the shyt he was doing to people and the fans having the attitude of sometimes you gotta drag a helpless someone in a bathroom and give em the beats

Same with Austin. They had to team him up with Triple H and have him beat the shyt out of Lita before he got all the way booed.

Breh..his announce table with the JR logo

I fukked with the Stone Cold heel turn back in 2001 & the 2-man Power trip. I don't understand why folks hated it so much.

But than again, the episode of "Smackdown" after Wrestlemaina 17 was my first time watching wrestling. So seeing those images of Stone Cold's heel turn at Wrestlemainia 17 & the episode of "Raw is War" the next night with JR's commentary during the recap of that "Smackdown" episode was BEASTLY AF to me.


It wasn't till years later after having watched a ton of Attitude Era PPVs, specials, documentaries, & etc. I understood why Stone Cold as a face was so popular during the Attitude era.

I remember that. WWE was trying everything in their power to get the crowd to turn on him

 

[Pinyapplesuckas]

i feel like no heel turns have really mattered in recent years. the Seth Rollins one is the realest heel turn in years for me. they've almost all been pointless

Tatanka definitely comes to mind though. Theres really no way to spin a Native American into a bad guy esp when he's surrounded by a bunch of white americans.

 

[JuvenileHell]

Shad turning on jtg ruined them both and lead to two african americans having match on a ppv sponsored by kfc where they had to whip each other with straps

I don't remember this That really happened? not that I'm too surprised....
