What will it take to actually get a Heel real heat?

[MenacingMonk]

Let's face it, in today's age of wrestling a true heel is pretty much dead. You have supposed heels get cheers more than boos or a heel get meh heat.

What needs to be done to be a real heel in 2017 and beyond?

The Miz is a perfect example of what it takes, but he's unique. He's not considered good as a worker which means you don't have to worry about the smarks liking him, and he has the "pretty boy" reality TV background that makes him very hateable.

Trying to present veterans who have more than earned their keep and are amazing in the ring like styles as heels makes it hard to get heel heat. The people want to cheer a guy like that. You have to book a guy like an entitled prick or an unapologetic bully in my opinion. I'd imagine that would work well. Who likes a guy like that?

Chargoat gets heat every week despite also being the most talented in the ring

Best in the biz, only Miz and Tri come close in 2017

 

[Tanahashi Coates]

Authors of Pain just did that. You could hear the in the crowd when they realised they were making that LOD comeback

A lot of smarks are growing on the Miz though in spite of him not being a workhorse. His recent run on SmackDown got a lot of smarks on his side, hell... just look at this board.

Eva Marie was great heel

Be a Muslim or any foreign guy that bashes America always works. Maybe try like a anti-smark heel but that will probably backfire.

Someone should come out and take a giant shyt on "legends" like Shane Douglas did.

Keep in mind heels in 2017 gotta sell merch too that's why most pander to the fans

Beat up Enzo or Bayley bad

1. Heels shouldn't have merchandise for sale at shows
2. Heels shouldn't have catchphrases unless the heel is already established
3. Heels shouldn't interact positively with the crowd
4. If need be Heels should be bullies
5. Heels should be heels 24/7
