I think this needs to be the program for Eddie after the JBL thing ends in June. I also think RVD, with Heyman and the Dudleys makes for a good faction.

Turning Cena might be a good idea down the line, but he's too over right now to do that now. Ive said this a million times, and I'm sure I'll say it a million more, but you shouldn't turn guys that fans dont want to be turned.
Would RVD be any different from Cena, Guerrero, or Taker? (in terms of the fans not wanting him to 'turn'). My initial thought is 'no' since RVD has had the same character for a number of years now.

Speaking of Eddie Guerrero, one reason why I toyed with the idea of HIM turning heel, was because he is the best worker. Guerrero can work programs with Taker, Cena, Mysterio, and RVD and make them ALL look good. Can a guy like RVD do that?

As far as Eddie goes, don't you think he seems kind of like Kurt Angle or The Rock? (i.e. the fans love him/them, but would have no problem 'booing' their characters).

Here's what I was thinking yesterday:

-Leading up to Summerslam, John Cena becomes the #1 contender for Eddie Guerrero's WWE title.

-At Summerslam, Chavo comes out and helps Eddie retain against Cena (signifying Eddie's heel turn).

-Eddie feuds with Cena for another month, before moving on to Undertaker, Rey Mysterio, and Charlie Hass. Also during this time, RVD has gone on a torrid streak of his own. RVD has defeated the likes of the Dudleys (in singles), Booker T, Bradshaw, and Renee Dupree.

Heading up to Wrestlemania, RVD and Eddie Guerrero finally lock horns. At Wrestlemania, RVD goes over Eddie Guerrero to win the title.


One thing about Eddie Guerrero - I have a feeling that his popularity may not last too long as a face (I could be wrong on this, but call it a 'gut' feeling). Eddie doesn't have that loveable 'cockiness' that he had as a heel. Angle didn't have that either. That's something that guys like Austin, The Rock, and Jericho HAVE as faces.

Again - I could be wrong, but it just seems like Eddie's more 'natural' crowd reaction is for the fans to "love to hate" him.
