Guest ratboy Report post Posted March 2, 2002 Which face made the worst heel ever? Sting?? Goldberg?? Rikishi? Somebody else? As a huge Sting mark, I'm tempted to go with the Stinger, but Goldberg's heel run in the summer of 2000 was idiotic, tired and largely unwatched: Pure WCW. What do y'all think, though?

Guest dreamer420 Report post Posted March 2, 2002 I agree with the Goldberg heel turn that was horrible. Also Matt Hardy's recent heel turn was nothing nore than a waste of time since he was gone from TV shortly after and then returned with Jeff and Lita.

Guest Tony149 Report post Posted March 2, 2002 I guess I'll go with Goldberg. Goldberg should of at least tried to be a heel instead of throwing a hissy fit over it. Sting's turn was also bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest DEEP THOUGHT Report post Posted March 2, 2002 Tatanka's heel turn at SummerSlam '94 was utterly pointless. The WWF should have just fired him rather that turn him heel and keep him around for another 18 months. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Sancho Report post Posted March 2, 2002 I don't want to sound like a queer or nothin, but Tatankas heel turn at SummerSlam 94 kinda surprised me!! I didn't see it coming.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Zack Malibu Report post Posted March 2, 2002 Ricky Morton's heel run as "Richard Morton" in the York Foundation. #1, the Rock N' Roll Express were no longer in their prime, and Morton had lost a step or two. Plus, who in the blue hell is going to get into a Robert Gibson solo push!? #2, His look stayed ENTIRELY THE SAME. This is the same problem Tatanka faced. No haircut, tights change, anything. The only difference was that his name was Richard. Big deal. Rikishi's turn as the hit and run driver would have been great if some of the rumors about it were true (it was supposedly leading to a new Nation stable, or a Rock heel turn at/before Wrestlemania). Instead we get Triple H as the mastermind, and Rikishi as the fat Samoan lackey. Goodbye heat, hello midcard for the once popular Samoan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Kahran Ramsus Report post Posted March 2, 2002 Tatanka's heel turn surprised me too. I thought Luger was going to turn, after a failed face run. Luger was always better as a heel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Army Eye Report post Posted March 2, 2002 Tatanka's heel turn surprised me too. I thought Luger was going to turn, after a failed face run. Luger was always better as a heel. It was a cool angle leading up to it.. but Tatanka as a heel wasn't anything to write home about Far from the worst though. Rikishi's was pretty bad. The way I remember it, he was floundering as a heel anyway, so the HHH thing was not so much a heat stealer as an angle saver. The subsequent feud at least made some good out of the car angle and Austin being out for so long. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest converge241 Report post Posted March 2, 2002 Sting The Goldberg one was bad too. The Sting one was so much worse cause he had been established as a face for so long and unlike a Hogan he didnt have the storylines or interviews to pull off such a change. At least goldberg had "The New Blood" behind him, as bad as it was. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Luke Michael Report post Posted March 2, 2002 Why was everyone so surpised at Tatanka's turn?? I saw it from a mile away and I was only 11. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest DEEP THOUGHT Report post Posted March 3, 2002 Tatanka accusing Lex of "selling out" a dozen times as well as very audibly saying "you sold out" about two dozen times during the match made it pretty obvious that it was going to be a swerve. I mean even the crowd knew...they booed Tatanka during his entrance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest MillenniumMan831 Report post Posted March 3, 2002 The only heel run that was Offensively Painful to watch was: King Mabel! Blahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Kahran Ramsus Report post Posted March 3, 2002 Yeah, but that's not because Mabel sucked as a heel. Its because he sucked period. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest MillenniumMan831 Report post Posted March 3, 2002 True True True! But at least he wasn't being pushed as a legit #1 Contender during his 1993-early1995 MOM days. He was a harmless oaf that polluted my screen about 3-5 minutes a week. As King Mabel, he guaranteed me that he would run through much of the roster up until his title shot. Plus, he'd be getting (shudder) interview time (shudder) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest crandamaniac Report post Posted March 3, 2002 I gotta go w/ Sting. I was there the night Sting turned heel on Hogan, and believe me, the people were not booing lol. I think Sting became the most popular man in NC by hitting Hogan w/ that bat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest nWoScorpion Report post Posted March 3, 2002 A heel run im thankful didnt happen was the supposive Ultimate warrior turn at Summerslam 1992. As for ones that did occur..........probably either Steve Austin's most recent one from WM X-7, or the Ahmed johnson one in summer of 1997. Talk about pointless.

Guest Redhawk Report post Posted March 3, 2002 Undertaker's most recent heel turn hasn't exactly lit the wrestling world on fire (although I loved seeing JR get beat up and forced to lick wrinkly ass), but his heel turn in late 1998-early 1999 was crap as well. But it did produce one of the best promo lines ever; "Let me make one thing clear ... I hate everyone." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Risk Report post Posted March 3, 2002 I never really liked the idea of heels and faces. I liked ECW because they didn't rely on that dynamic there, the characters were more realistic, like real people, lots of real people are messed up... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest X-Factor Corperation Report post Posted March 3, 2002 Possibly Rikishi. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Man They Call Texas Blu Report post Posted March 3, 2002 I think it's X-Pac. The guy was actually over with the fans. Then he turned heel against Kane. His career has gone in a downward sprial since then. Poor little bugger, maybe there is chance Syxx will have spot on the NWO. Until then, godspeed 1-2-3 Kid!

Guest imajackoff? Report post Posted March 5, 2002 uhhh the wwf bringing in Booker T as a heel didnt make sense, that was kinda an invisible heel turn He was brought in as a face at the beginning of the Invasion angle. He didnt turn heel until wcw and ecw merged to be become the alliance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
