Ur favorite cowardly heel tactics

[the kid]

One of my favorites came from Eddie that I saw on Youtube.
Can't remember his opponent but long story short, he tosses a chair (?) to his opponent that the guy naturally catches.
Eddie then falls violently and feigns that he was struck.
He does all of this while the ref - who was laid out - begins coming to.
The ref gets up all groggy, looks at the guy holding the chair, looks at Eddie, looks back at the guy holding the chair, and calls a DQ, awarding Guerrero the win on some,
"The audacity "

Eddie was a damn fool. That's the vid.

Good looking out

 

[Ill Lou Malnati]

- Using the ropes for leverage when the ref isn't looking while having a wear down hold on their opponent

- Pushing the ref and the ref pushes back and the heel backs off like . Still see this from time to time and it never gets old. They did it the other week between Charles Robinson & Sheamus at a house show I went to.

Also i miss when a heel would randomly claim his hair was being pulled.

Damn, taking me back to those classics heelisms

Getting a restraining order / ruling from the management that if the babyface lays a finger on him, he'll be immediately fired / arrested

Recruiting a giant hoss as a bodyguard

bytchslapping the babyface then running away before he can retaliate

The beg and then eye poke/ low blow.
Hooking up with an authority figure for pull
Constantly back out of matches by claiming you're injured. A fake cast, sling, or even wheelchair make this even better. The best is "I'd love to kick the crap out of you tonight...but I have a doctor's note!" , its just classic weaseling out of trouble)
Surround yourself with lower tier guys to take on opponents while you slip away
Cheating and framing your opponent for it.

I remember The Rock doing that to Ken Shamrock at the 98 Royal Rumble

Nothing beats arn anderson calling a time out in the corner.

CM always paying homage to the greats

 

[Ribbs]

Eddie and Flair were OGs at these tricks.

Ripping up fans signs was a go to move back in WCW.

 

[Box Cutta]

I noticed Nikki did that too and was they actually heelin' it up out there.

They just need to be more consistent with it....stop coming out dapping folks up and trying to get neckbeard creep pop.

This used to be my shyt....even if it was a sign for the heel, they would shred that shyt....

Orton was underrated as fukk in 2013/early 2014 during that heel run.

what pissed people off about this one right here was how good the match was, and Orton knew what he had to do. I remember it being the best one out of their series of matches.

 

[TheGodling]

Johnny Mundo (John Morrison) played the heel perfectly in the big match on LU this week. Puma got the first pin, causing Johnny to use his legs for leverage on the ropes and equals the score. Then he knocks Puma the fukk out with a crowbar and scores three easy pins, putting him ahead 4 against 1 with not a single clean pin. He wants to trash Puma further but Puma recovers and starts bringing the score back. Now Johnny realizes he has to watch out so still being in the lead, he starts running (literally, like circles around the ring and climbing onto the stands, then jumping off when Puma follows him) waiting for time to run out so he can win.

Chris Jericho back in the WCW days with the arrogant cover, that delusion

 

[Vice Queen]

The manager cheating for you.

 

[GoddamnyamanProf]

A few more:

-Rolling out of the ring and literally running away. When the face chases the heel around the ring, quickly slide in and stomp the face as he tries to get back into the ring

-"You want your match? YOU GOT IT. ...Just not tonight "

- Blatant choke in front of the ref and holding the full 5 count

- When heel tag teams just clap their hands behind the ref's back instead of actually tagging in.
