Post your favorite heel turns. There's a lot I can think of so I'll probably have to post at least 7 or 8.
This one was so well done and a total shock to me at the time.
This was awesome. Built up over a year's time and it was a shocker also.
Now this is how you do a double turn!

Here are three of mine.
1) Rockers Split up
2) Jericho turns on HBK
3) This one is a bit of a reach as it wasn't really a heel turn but damn it I loved every minute of it. It lead to the only thing Hogan did that was entertaining since his match with The Rock.

That was pretty good. I hadn't seen the Jericho one and the hogan clip. Been a really long time since I saw the Rocker thing. That one was really well done.

OH yeah Jumpin' Jeff. That guy is becoming a legend guess we should leave out the obvious ones here. hogan '96 bash and those that tried to duplicate the greatness. hart, austin, hart again in WCW for nWo 2000 even thought i thought the entire angle was genius ....... andre coming back on Pipers Pit deserves a mention. savage on Hogan being jealous of Hogan/Liz..... scott steiner on his brother rick joing the nwo - that was great.... buff turning on scotty riggs joining the nwo........... curt hennig slamming the door in flairs face and joining the nwo the giant swerving WCW and joining the nwo bischoff joining the nwo................ jim ross bringing out fake diesel and fake razor there had to be a Strike Force heel turn between Tito and Martel (sorry I've had a few beers) same with the Can Am Connection - wait - who were they? Tom Zenk and  ?? |

Yea, the Rockers splitting, just beautifully done.
I hate to do an easy one, but Hogan joining the nWo, even though I think Heenan f***ed it up a tad. I love Bobby but he screwed it all around."What side is he on....what side is he on!" I get Bobby and Hogan had a "feud" but WcW was fighting for their "lives." He should have been like,"OMG Hogan, this is the one time Im glad to see you." It was a good turn, I guess turn the volume down.
Hart-SCSA WM13 double turn.
Jake the Snake turning on the Ultimate Warrior, good classic stuff.
The Rock at Survivor Series 1999. He had the crowd behind him and told them all to get lost.
I really hate I didnt watch more WcW stuff. I always, whenever I see old VHS tapes or any way to get my hands on any WcW event, I grab it. I'd love to see some classic old WcW stuff, I own Halloween Havoc 1990 and a lot of 1996-1998 WcW stuff, but that's a big gap? I do own all the World War 3s (I dont think I got 96's, Im not sure) but a massive gap. I recently got Bash at the Beach 1995, fun stuff. Yea, 1990-1995, Id love to see WcWs product. Hell, 89 and lower, Id be all over it. Little OT, sorry.

Yeah the Jericho/HBK one was just a brilliantly done story that lead to a brilliant feud between the two. I recommend the Talk is Jericho podcast (episode 117 which was Part 2 w/ HBK) he has with Shawn where they discuss that feud and how it was only meant to be a one off but it was so good that it lead to Jericho getting the belt and the feud continuing. Jericho describes it as the best feud he's ever done and watching the way it played out it was really brilliant. I put in the Hogan/HBK one because that may have been the last time that I was legit shocked by a heel turn. It was iffy because Shawn only turned heel for that feud because Hogan required a face vs heel feud between the two. It was just one of those great shock moments for me. That brief feud they had was also hilarious from HBK's stand point. His heel promo's were great and if you didn't watch it I recommend Youtubing the HBK/Hogan Larry King promo. It was damn brilliant. |

Bob Backlund turning heel on Bret Hart. Man, I watch that stuff and Backlund was great as a heel. He really came across as an unstable dangerous lunatic. It's a huge shame it all came crashing down at a random house show against Diesel.

'94 is when they started trying to be the wwf lite. |

That was good. He'd never been heel before so that was a good shocker in the latter days of that territory. |

I think I watched the RF video shoot a really long time ago. I just think the guy kinda lost it so I haven't really tried to watch any of his other shoots.

That also reminds me of a good Billy Jack story. Maybe not story but match I saw on tv in 1985. Billy Jack was against some job guy on Florida tv. It's going fine and then he whips the guy into the ropes and just cracks him in the face with a left hand. Knocks the guy out cold. Jack just stood there not knowing what to do. Bill Alfonso lifted the guys arm a couple of times like the ref does during a sleeper hold or move just like that. The guy was out. Billy tries to pick him up again, he's dead weight. Slaps him a few times to try and wake him up, finally he get ups, billy slams him, backdrop and full nelson and the match is done. I don't know what the story was or if something happened backstage, but That was the first time I've ever seen somebody legitimately knock somebody out with one punch in a wrestling match.

A lot of people enjoy those. I just like when I listen to a guy and I can believe the guy is sane and telling the truth. I don't think he knows the difference between reality and fiction |
