Awesome Heel Moments

There are no great faces without great heels, and great heels come from great heel moments. So here's one of my favorites -

It was Wrestling Challenge or Superstars in the late 80's. The Million Dollar Man would come out each week, you'll recall, and challenge the audience to do something for money because he knew that "everyone had a price."

Well, this particular week he comes out with the same challenge to the audience. He and Virgil see a kid in the crowd and invite him up. This kid could't have been more than 6 or 7 years old. So, he goes up to podium where Dibiase is and the Million Dollar Man issues this challenge to the kid: "If you can dribble this basketball 10 times in a row...I will give you this $100 bill." So the kid is all entusiastic and the crowd is all behind this innocent little boy. The kid starts dribbling...1..2..3....the crowd gets behind the kid...4..5..6....the crowd counts down the last few bounces....7..8...he's gonna do it....9...and before the ball hits the ground the final time, Dibiase sticks his foot out and kicks the ball, thus making the kid fail the challenge.

But, what made it worse is that after the kid realized what had happened, his face looked as if he watched his puppy die a slow painful death. That was the most heat I had heard from a WWF crowd up to that moment. It was classic!

What are your favorite heel moments over the last 20 years?
