We can all agree that Sonjay's heel turn at Slammiversary was horrible. He attacked Jay Lethal which was fine, but then him getting owned by the legends right after he was trying to beat up Black Machismo killed it. Sonjay ended up looking like a fool, and it ruined the entire segment which was pretty fucking hard to do considering it wasn't too good in the first place. Anyway, that was at Slammiversary. On iMPACT! we got to see Sonjay Dutt's first show as a heel, and I didn't really like it. Maybe it was because of the way he turned, or maybe he is better as a babyface, but I don't think he was generating any heat at all. Obviously turning him face right now wouldn't work since he just turned, and it would kill any momentum that he has left. So what do you think TNA should to to Sonjay? First of all, do you think he is a good heel? If you don't, what do you think TNA could do to make him a good heel?

Dude you should have seen Sonjay at the houseshow in Liverpool, man the guy played an awesome heel that night. The crowd where really booing the hell out of him and his in ring reaction to it was priceless. After going to the show man I definatly believe Sonjay can go far as a Heel. It kind of all depends on the way TNA books him.

Really to be honest I think it's to early to judge if he is a good one or not.

No one really cares about the guy, so he is never going to be awesome as a face, nor heel. He doesn't have much charisma, he just has athletic moves, and that is not going to get you over alone, especially as a heel.

So no, Sonjay is not a good heel yet, and I think it will take time for him to devolop into one, if he ever will.

I was just about to say this he probably got the biggest boos of the night, except maybe Robert Roode. Which show were you at?

Too early to tell if he'll make a good heel really. If he continues to receive NO heat like he did at the PPV then the answer will be no.

Yeah but the wedding was just so unbelievably lame, that the crowd were not interested.

I think once he will begin to generate heat when he stops coming across like a lame schoolboy with a crush and more like somebody who genuinly betrayed his friend. I think the way to do it is to have Val turn on Lethal and have them become the sort of evil couple of the X-Division, then put the title on Sonjay and get him some microphone skills.

Too be brutally honest...

Sonjay Dutt sucks as life, so he sucks as face and heel.

Remember...being brutally honest.

I went to the show at Liverpool Olympia, man it was awesome, lol when Earl Hebner was getting booed anyway back to the topic I think you guys need to give Sonjay a chance I mean he has only been a heel for a few weeks so after a month or so we will see.

Me too, the friday show? Earl Hebner was hilarious, loved the "you screwed bret" chants.

I think the problem is how TNA books Sonjay, as an in ring heel, he is great.

I think Sonjay may be better off as a comical heel, a la Santino Marella (lmao @ "4th graders are maturing at a very fast rate, alright? I have pictures").

Of course, one thing you can't take away from him is his ability to duck challenges!

IMO, Hell no. Dutt represents peace. People who represent peace aren't the greatest heel in the world. But...We'll see in the next couple weeks in impact there is a chance he can pull it off but it has a good chance to go absolutley terrible
