EDIT: Shit, the title should say "Face" instead of heel.

I've been thinking about this a bit lately... Now, I know not everything in wrestling is supposed to make sense, cause thats impossible, but really, is it even possible to do a face turn that makes sense anymore?
For a while, in past decades, it just seemed like face turns were possible, because the heels that turned face werent usually the same type of heels as the Ortons of today (like brutal viscious psychos)... But nowadays, it seems like if one of the top heels were to turn face, it would seem stupid. maybe its just my view of wrestling changing... But anyways, a face turning heel is ok.. I mean, that can be written good, you can have the face just all of a sudden get fed up, or try new methods to get a title, or whatever, and overall, just turn into a bad guy and cheat and stuff to get hated...

But I cant see any major heels turning face anymore... Kennedy doesnt count, cause he was sort of always liked anyways... But it wouldnt make sense for a heel like Orton, who has done so much shit, got so much heat, backs away from so many fights, etc, just like Edge or MVP, to turn face. because it'd be hard to repackage their characters into guys who are "fighting champions" and "good guys" and "stick up for the fans, etc...

So basically, its easy for a face to turn heel, but IMO, it seems like its getting harder to turn heels into faces, because heels nowadays are built to be such bad guys...

So, is it just me, or does anyone else agree that it seems like certain heels in the company now, will never be able to succesfully turn face because of the way they are being built up as heels now?

that can be written good,

i just thought that it should be written well. it just makes no sense saying something can be written better if you dont even have good grammar.

but really, i agree it is hard to turn a major heel into a face. and the WWE hasnt turned many heels into a face lately. the only ones i can think of are Kennedy and Murdoch but there are so many different faces to heels. the writers will have to come up with something good to turn Orton or Edge face and i would love to see it happen

How much of a shithead are you? lol. If you read the full post, you would know my post didnt have anything to do with grammar, so thats not even relevant here... I made a typing mistake, that automatically means my whole post is shit right O_O

I think MVP, Shelton Benjamin, and John Morrison could be successful Faces Someday...


I mean people were beginning to cheer for MVP when he was tagging with Matt Hardy, most people like him, and he's got some pretty good mic-skills, I think he could be a good face some day...and such, but right now he's doing good as a heel


for Shelton Benjamin, its basically the sense that the guy doesn't really do anything to get heel heat, he's kind've like Rey Mysterio/rickysteamboat in the sense that even if they're a heel, there'd be no real reason to boo at all...so may aswell just keep'em a face and such.


and for John Morrison, I think its ....cause he's like a younger-shawn michaels....and he could probably get the Jeff Hardy-Fonz Factor
