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. It's time to make TPWW MEAT again! Quote:

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

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. |

Most non-WWF(E) turns from booker Vince Russo are pointless. He never built enough interest in characters before the turn and frequently turned them back and forth to much for it to matter.

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.

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. |

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.

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.

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

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 |

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. |

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

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