We all know Vince loved playing 'the foreigner is evil' card for heels for many years.
He still enjoyed it even recently with Jinder. This is played out and really isn't entertaining anymore.

Given what is going on today with the world and how people react to things...
What so you think would make for a total "heel" thing to do?

Honestly I think the only heels that can work are the IDGAF monster heels like Lesnar, the sadistic heels like Orton, and the so-up-their-own-asses heels like Miz.

The main problem with heels are the ones who speak a big game but who fail numerous times (Samoa Joe most recent examples), and too many comedy segments (Owens) making them look like a joke - that doesn't mean they shouldn't be in comedy segments, just that they should be the butt of the joke from their face opponent rather than instigating the comedy segment themselves.

The ideal heel would be someone who wouldn't deviate from his/her path. He/she wouldn't do a uturn like Razor Ramon or bounce between heel and baby face like Ric Flair, the perfect heel would be a consistent and honest character, who wouldn't attack others from behind.

The best heel in my mind would be the type who had there head far up there ass. The type who believe their own bullshit. The type who is cheap and looks at it like "Just doing what needs to be done". They should also be entertaining no matter what, since this is professional wrestling. No wrestler should EVER be boring, I don't care if a crowd cheers or boos you, that time is dead and the people who think you can go back are wrong.

Basically, if you can say "They're a piece of crap", they're a good heel. You could like them, you can hate them, but they need to be a bad person

I still wonder how well Feminist Emma(lina) would have worked. Having a heel sounding like a social media dumbshit sounds fun.

The concept of Heels and Faces is dead and has been. Heels will be cheered no matter what because of it being cool and Faces get booed because is it the cool thing to do. The only way a heel would get booed nowadays would have to involve real world things such as politics, religion, and more.

Any time a heel gets real heat the fans say it's "go away heat"... It's kinda annoying.. If a heel is getting booed he's doing a good job.. Silence is go away heat... If you're getting a strong reaction it's really a good thing.
