Guest LooneyTune Posted April 25, 2005 Report Posted April 25, 2005 Undertaker's heel turn in late 2001 shocked the hell out of me. I couldn't believe it, had no idea it was coming. From the beginning I thought it was a terrible idea. Proved right- he was still one of the most over in the company Until Judgment Day 2002, when WWE decided to change his theme music. The result? The crowd, for the first time in as many years as I can remember, was completely dead for his entrance.
Guest news_gimmick Posted April 25, 2005 Report Posted April 25, 2005 I remember that theme he had at Judgement Day didn't have him saying "Deadman Walking" before it started, and thus there was silence. But at least his heel turn inducted JR into the Vince McMahon "Kiss my ass club". Yah....it was doomed from the start.
haws bah gawd Posted April 25, 2005 Report Posted April 25, 2005 "You can't kiss the man's ass, unless he's wearing your hat!" I thought it was pretty funny at the time.
PLAGIARISM! Posted April 25, 2005 Report Posted April 25, 2005 1-2-3 kid didn't seem like heel material to me.
Jericholic82 Posted April 25, 2005 Report Posted April 25, 2005 Regal was a defacto face during the first two months or so of the invasion, untill he cost angle the wwf title against austin on "the biggest raw ever" (yes it was billed as such that week)
Jericholic82 Posted April 25, 2005 Report Posted April 25, 2005 I would second hogan and bulldog pretty shocking. scott steiners turn in 98 was shocking, though there were pretty obvious hints for months, but to a mark wow. Owen turn in 94 shocked me, cuz I thought they had made up.
Guest MikeSC Posted April 26, 2005 Report Posted April 26, 2005 Was Rude ever really a face? I was diappointed at WCW's decision to turn Goldberg heel. This was a guy that lived and breathed charity work, and working with kids, and they thought it would be a good idea to turn the guy heel. Is that a kayfabed comment? Not intentionally. I had always read from various sources that Goldberg loved working with kids and chrities, and I figured after he punched-out Hacksaw's cancerous kidneys, kids would be scared to death of him. Umm, logically, he mauls guys for money. Hard to describe him as a good role model for kids. -=Mike
nl5xsk1 Posted April 26, 2005 Report Posted April 26, 2005 Hulk Hogan, Rock, Bret Hart and Steve Austin for sure...others? Flair Foley Savage
Black Lushus Posted April 26, 2005 Report Posted April 26, 2005 Bret hart's heel turn is probably my all time favorite while Hogan's is probably the most shocking...
IWD Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 Hulk Hogan, Rock, Bret Hart and Steve Austin for sure...others? Flair Foley Savage Jimmy Snuka. Shawn Michaels. Cheers.
Jericholic82 Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 How about the coach? I mean that came out of left field IMO. No one would predict that WWE would bother spending time on a nothing annoucner.
