Heel Turns that didn't help the wrestler
 

or anyone else for that matter.

Lex Luger's heel turn was bland and pointless. I never thought I could care less about him and it never seemed to help anyone around him, not even Sting (who didn't need the help).

Post your picks here.

Billy Gunn turns on DX

which Luger heel turn? he's done several

Santino

Goldberg's heel turn. I hardly even remember it, so it must've sucked.

Most recently I would say Shad Gaspard and Primo.

Lies, Santino was a random face who came out of the crowd to win the IC title. As a heel he became the funniest guy in the history of the WWE. If anything he has hurt his comedy by the fans loving it so much.

Remember when he feud with Stone Cold Steve Austins or the Honky Tonk Mans? By watching this movie we are all a condemned, and The greatest IC champion of all times!

The answer to this question is the British Bulldog Davey Boy Smith. He joined Camp Cornette, but really never fit well as a huge bad guy. When he won the European title he got cheered. The fans wanted him to be a good guy, and it was too late when he came back in 1999 for a short lived face run before going back to heel.

What the hell is that!?

Sting's first heel turn in WCW in 2000 when they had that title tournament and he beat up James J. Dillion. I think the turn lasted about 3 weeks until he was back to face again. Nash has also done it way too many times to count or care about.

Agreed with the Sting bit, same with Goldberg's turn in 2000, I thought HBK's heel turn in 2005 was naff because after his match with Hogan he was face again.

Matt Hardy when he feuded with Jeff. Should have been great but it wasn't and then it was abandoned.

he buggered off and came back as a face.

You know a heel turn that I can't believe happened? It was more of a swerve. When Buff Bagwell returned from being nearly paralyzed by Rick Steiner in 1998 I believe.

Buff could have been a HUGE babyface because of this. WCW really dropped the ball on this.

The Goldberg heel turn in WCW was ridiculous.

I came here to mention Shad Gasspard. What a waste.

As of late Primo it did absolutetly nothing for him lol he's still stuck on Superstars for crying out loud.

Eugene's one week heel turn where he beat up Jim Duggan and yelled "I'M SPECIAL!"

To be fair, Primo was turned heel with Carlito to feud with the Hart Dynasty. Carlito kinda fucked it up.

The Bellas turned on each other for a few weeks. Maybe over one liking Miz and one liking Primo or some combination from those teams.

1 went with The Colons, the other went with Miz/Morrison

Looks like Kane's about to turn heel without becoming any less bland and dull, as his promos have already been elevated to another level as a face.

Kane obviously. DX which means X-Pac, Road Dogg And Billy. Rikishi sucked as heel too.

Rikishi's in the long run. Especially after HHH revealed himself as the master planner.

Scott Hall in WCW

But he did it for the Rock

that time ric flair turned heel..

Shes not a wrestler but Linda McMahon's heel turn was just like every other time shes on screen a coma inducing waste of time

a sidenote: Rikishis heel turn is one of my friend and I's absolute fave bad heel turns it was made 100 times better/worse by his "why I did it" speech and his theme music

All these are good, except for the Bellas. I thought we were talking about wrestlers, thed. Haha.

It gave us this campaign commercial. I must say that it was well worth it.

Goldberg's heel turn in WCW was a horrible, horrible decision.

On the flip side I desperately did not want Austin to turn heel and join with McMahon, but he did a great job that summer, and totally added new layers to the character. So I don't consider that a bad turn, I just really didn't want it to happen.

I think they had Angle as a face during that time, which I also didn't want to happen. But it was well played.

the rocks brief turn when he came back and called christian the new peoples champ

STAND BACK! THERE'S A HEEL TURN COMING THROUGH!!!


.... But then there really wasn't. (At least not for awhile still)

Austin turned heel, then turned babyface, then turned back to heel and then by the end of 2001, turned babyface again.

well his 1st babyface turn was kind of by default since he was with the WWF in the feud with WCW

Austin heel turn at WM17 should be number 1 on this list.

Goldberg in WCW is the first to come to mind.....

Actually, the Sting heel turn in WCW occurred at Fall Brawl in September 1999.

He wasn't heel, they were just two babyfaces. Like John Cena vs Lashley.

The Montage explaining Sting's heel turn was laughably bad. I think they even tried to blame him for inventing the NWO, the Exon Valdez oil spill, and the creation of cancer.

Your right. The Mayhem tourney was a little while after that. I rember he beat up JJ the next night on Nitro. I had kind of checked out on WCW by that time really. Thanks for the correction.:y:

Yeah, and Austin turned heel at the end.
