I mostly agree ABT. I think that he has been working as a face, his matches for the last 2+ years, while very good, are pretty formulaic and it seems like he is kind of stuck in that style. I think a few 'dirty tatics' may help. Also using the spear is confusing, because its so associated with Edge that it gets a positive reaction. Maybe he should stick to the killswitch / start using a new finish.
Although I do like that he hasn't changed his look or entrance music, because it just seems corny that 'Hey I'm a bad guy now, I need new music, or a new pair of tights.' Like I hate when someone turns and then the next day on RAW they have new black tights and some pre-packaged rap song ready to go, just makes it seem fake.
So far I'm not digging it as much as the 2004-2005 heel X-tain. I think he is so used to working face now that he is having a hard time, plus when you are a veteran you kind of reach a point where you can only be a face because of respect from the fans. Maybe he should be more a chicken-shit heel like he was before he left for TNA, its more believable for a smaller wrestler. I am interested to see where they go with it.
