Could they successfully turn The Undertaker heel?

[Xero]

This isn't a matter of if they SHOULD, but do you think they COULD successfully turn The Undertaker for his next WrestleMania match? Or has his matches at this point transcended the need for heels and faces?

And if they were going to turn The Undertaker, how would you like to see it happen? Keep in mind that Taker's current limitations would be in effect and he couldn't magically wrestle a full-time schedule.

Discuss an Undertaker heel turn here.

[Theo Dious]

I think you could have the Undertaker running over puppies with a steamroller and he'd still be treated as a face come Wrestlemania.

[#1-norm-fan]

Unless it was some situation like WrestleMania being in Chicago and him facing CM Punk, it would be pretty tough.

[Swiss Ultimate]

I could think of some crappy ways to do it that would turn the fans against him, but doing so while keeping to a level of quality might be tough. Taker could come out and choke-slam and Tombstone every face in the company and the fans would still cheer.

You could maybe come out under his real name and just talk about how he has been pretending to be this character for so long and that he has secretly hated it all this time. Now he wants to be a popstar. He hires his ex-wife to become his new manager and she tells Booker he can't wrestle at Mania for fear he'll injure his throat.

[jerichoholicninja]

Get Vickie Guerrero as his manager.

[Swiss Ultimate]

Only if it's implied they're fucking, Jericho.

[jerichoholicninja]

Only if it's implied they're fucking, Jericho.

It was implied that it was implied that they were fucking.

[Emperor Smeat]

At this point, probably not considering it would all lead up to the Mania match.

If he wins as a heel, the crowd is still going to cheer and be in awe over his streak. If he lost then its a huge shock but not because he was a heel for the match.

HBK was affected the same way considering his last run always had him as a face even if he did heelish-type actions once in a while. For example he tried to play a heel leading up to his last match vs Taker but people still cheered him. He even superkicked a little girl on RAW during a skit and people cheered in the end.

That girl was a cunt a deserved what she got.

[dronepool]

It's not hard to turn people against you, he can wipe the flag with his ass or say something nasty about every town or just attack a 'face' that's beloved.

[Swiss Ultimate]

It was implied that it was implied that they were fucking.

Will he get her name tattooed on his throat?

[Rock Bottom]

You could turn the Undertaker heel, yes.

He'd still be cheered by a loyal fan base no matter what, but for all intents and purposes, you could turn him. I'm not sure I'd like to see it happen at all, but if I were to turn him, I'd have him beat the shit out of Jerry Lawler.

[Jordan]

Jerry Lawler the go to guy lol

[Keith]

Of course you can turn Undertaker heel.

Have him go out there and beat up Jim Ross. He'll get booed out of the building.

[Tom Guycott]

I must be in the minority. I don't believe 'Taker can truly go heel anymore. He's crossed that "legend threshold". He'll get a face reaction no matter what. Just like Flair. Just like Piper.

[Keith]

If WWE really, truly, wanted to turn someone heel, they could do it no matter who it is.

WWE can take the most popular guy and have him get booed just like that, if they really, truly, 100% decide to do so.

Even Undertaker.

[Fignuts]

He'd have to drop the deadman gimmick and go back to big evil, I think.

[MoFo]

Prol would need to group him with a few more heels because nobody is gonna boo him on his own...

[Lock Jaw]

He would need to drop the Deadman gimmick, and then "shoot" on it. Pissing all over it, and the fans, for buying into that garbage for so many years. He would then refuse to fight anybody at Mania because he is done "being that phony" and there was "no challenge".

Eventually someone would get him to accept a match, or he would be "forced" into one by an Authority Figure/Board of Directors.

[Lock Jaw]

So basically, strip him of his gimmick and make him a generic chickenpoop egomaniacal heel. In a suit.

[Keith]

Imagine Undertaker knocking John Cena out, taking him, and then deciding he wants to to embalm him, like he tried to do with Austin back in the day. <!-- / message -->

[Sixx]

All I have to say is he looks fuckin' terrible with that mohawk.

[Shisen Kopf]

Once again the sure fire way to turn any rassler heel is make em gay. Have him come out in pink gear and change his name to "The Taker". Instant heat bc no-one likes gays. Maybe they could bring the warrior to feud with him.

[Fignuts]

Your mom likes gays.

[Big Vic]

Only if it's implied they're fucking Jericho.Removing the comma makes for an even better heel turn.

[Tom Guycott]

This would turn him heel how? Too many Cena haters. He'll be a bigger face than before, if that's even possible.

[Hanso Amore]

Easy. Cheap attack on the rock.

[Sixx]

I thought a dumb-ass mohawk was enough to get people to hate you.

[Pintint]

Sure, just make him an "anti-american" traitor.

[Keith]

Well, then have him do it on Rey Mysterio or something.

Or Hornswoggle.

[Nicky Fives]

They could easily turn Undertaker heel, but why bother? Even if he competes in a Mania match versus Cena, Brock or Rock, he would be a bigger draw if he were face, no matter what his opponent is.....

[RiX1024]

Attack Cena....no wait he'll be cheered
Attack Punk....no wait he'll be cheered
Attack Santino.......
Attack Ryder..........

No idea, you can't turn Taker heel. Even reform the Ministry with new members...who knows?

[MoFo]

:lol: corporate Taker would be weird.

[Kane Knight]

Have him move to France.

[Sixx]

Le Death Valley.

[Tommy Gunn]

Give him Kofi Kingston's original gimmick and have him patrol the beaches burying alive jocks and small dogs.

[Rollermacka]

Have him come out and take a shit on the announcers table...

[Rollermacka]

Sure, just make him an "anti-american" traitor.

Even better, have him comepletely shave his head bald and goose step out with a swastika on his chest. Top that off with a hitler salute and the playing of the nazi national anthem and you got a beyond hated heel.

[Pintint]

Or more likely a character that will get lol's

[OldSchoolFan]

Sadly as loved as Taker is I could see the crowd chanting "All Hail Hitler"-he could go back the using "The Last Ride".... call it "The Genocide"

[crusnik]

At this point no....he is more of an entity now,and the fact that he's close to retiring(I think ) a heel turn wouldn't make sense.

[Kane Knight]

In wrestling? Dude's probably going to outsell Cena, CM Punk and Mysterio combined in merch sales.

[DAMN iNATOR]

It would never happen but if it did, I'd love to see him go back to being the American Bad Ass with

:cool:

[Taker it Easy]

Yes. The Undertaker exists to take your soul into possession of the dark, the urn.

You stop enjoying life. Your mind exists to consist of The Undertakers will.

A pallet swap of the wrestlers outfit happens and it is really cool and badass. Soulless animated meat sacks. The new NWO.

[Swish]

Yes they did in 1999. However the crowd, have always favored
The Undetaker. The American Bad Ass gimmick was supposed to be Takers
heel turn, however the fans reacted and still cheered him on.
