"Old School" Heel Tactics/Heat

Was just thinking about Owen Hart and this came to mind. Same goes with Flair, etc. The cheap heat, the "begging," stepping out of the ropes, etc.

Owen was hilarious.



Funny part starts at 3:30 or so.

Then there's Owen "celebrating" vs. Bret in a completely random stalemate of a tie-up.



3:30, lol

thats not cheap heat, cheap heat is like...calling people fat/gay/thigns that are blatently obviously and also kinda ruin people enjoyment of the show. taking a powder isnt cheap heat tho.

I also consider lines like "all these/you people" to be cheap heat

Old school heel stuff does work... It always has. The thing is it has to be used well...

Did it as a heel too. Even in WCW. Just when he got over as a face he kept doing heel things and it was STILL over just because it was Eddie.

Ha! I still remember smacking the kid's basketball away during the "dribble challenge". I was so sad for him.

I always loved the heel move of pulling the valet in the way. Savage used to do it all the time with Elizabeth. Glad to see Daniel Bryan bringing that back.

Also, the guy who would talk a big game then immediately beg for mercy at the first glimpse of confrontation. Not just taking a powder, I'm talking about 100% cowardice. Like Bobby Heenan used to do with Big Bossman.

I also loved grabbing the ropes when you have the guy in the submission move. I don't know how that could really give someone more leverage, but it seemed work pretty well.
