Why is it always the same.

Guy turns heel.

Comes out next show in a dapper suit, cuts a 20 min promo calling the fans sheep.

Starts growing a well groomed beard, cuz beards are for evil ppl.

Most overdone thing in wrestling, along with 'on air firings'

Dunno, just pissed off they did this with Robert Roode. Seems like they turned him into Triple H circa 2003 rather than try something original.

Batista heel turn when he raped Rey Mysterio was beautiful.

Christian's slow-burn turn was awesome too.

I was also a fan of Tatanka accusing Lex Luger of being aligned with Ted DiBiase, when in actuality, HE was the one aligned with Ted DiBiase! :eek:

Do I even need to say anything about a certain window at the Barber Shop?

CM Punk cashing in Money in the Bank on Jeff Hardy was pretty bad ass too.

...hold up, what's the point of this thread?

How are heel turns "overdone"? I find them to be a necessary 'evil'.

I'm guessing Flex was trying to say "why is everyone copying Jericho's heel turn?"

The answer is cause Jericho did it awesomely well.

Barry Windham did that turn first with the Four Horseman long ago. Started dressing better, growing the beard.

Not the act of turning a guy heel, just the way its done.

Very generic stuff.

Like Inno said about Jericho, seems like most follow down that route.

Otunga looks like he could be a heat magnet, mind.

I though the R-Truth heel turn was original.

TNA? Try something original??? Now that's just silly!

Like a Heel Hulk Hogan, or a four sided ring, that was unheard of!

If Cena turns heel, he should do it exactly like how I did it in ARMCHAIR WARFARE.

Basically plays the same goody goody character, but even more so. Oblivious to all boos, obsessed with merchandise sales, and not adverse to cheating because "it only saves time because we know Cena will win anyways".

So you're upset TNA is doing something the WWF/WWE already did and not doing something original?

:wtf:

He lies, he cheats, he steals...

Wait, wrong gimmick.

And what's with all this wrestling? It's so passé. Can't we see space combat or something new?

In addition to the beard and suit, you need to change your theme music.

It should either be :
*Slowed down version of your previous theme
*Lyrics added to a previously instrumental version

I like my unexpected heel turns not the ones that build up. and some heel turns don't work because fans will cheer them.

I don't really have a problem with heel turns being 'unoriginal', but I do enjoy ones where the heel has a valid point.

Christian not liking his treatment at the hands of Teddy Long. CM Punk not liking the fact a drug addict gets so much love and adulation. R-Truth being pissed off that 'even Zack Ryder has a shirt'. Rikishi doing it for the Rock... ah forget that one... :|

So Cena is gonna FU... excuse me Attituse Adjustment a face and then just walk away? He's gonna come back talking about how if the fans don't respect him, then he doesn't respect them. I don't think he can grow facial hair though... meh, still won't care for him :-\
