Character development that made perfect sense
Just for fun, let's talk about some wrestling character development that just made perfect sense. We often see guys turn face and heel for the hell of it, and their style in the ring suddenly changes for no other reason at all other than formula. To me, it doesn't make sense how a guy like Big Show can go from being a monster who dominates all his matches when he is booed, to being beaten up and needing to make comebacks when he is cheered.
Some character development I have really liked recently in the WWE: Brian Kendrick from loveable high-flyer to egocentric sneaky heel made perfect sense to me. Kendrick held the WWE Tag Team Championship longer than anybody else in history. When he and Paul London didn't find the same success on RAW, he retreated a little bit, and even walked out on his partner. But then when he was drafted to SmackDown!, he used the opportunity to work a smarter style, and reach for the WWE Championship. While I miss mega-uber-cocky heel MVP, I do love how his losing streak humbled him a little bit, if just the tiniest. He was a guy who didn't consider losing a possibility, now he knows that he is, and he's a more whole person because of it. Pfft |
