It seems that once a heel turns face, everything that heel has done is automatically forgiven, including attempted homicides (especially of the vehicular variety). So are is there anything that is completely unforgiveable, no matter what.
Or is being a cocky, arrogant jerk the ultimate sin in wrestling?

I was surprised that after singing Happy Birthday to Reys daughter, CM Punk managed to get good reactions again.
Orton's 2009 heel activities resulting in a face turn baffles me as well. When he kissed a unconscious Stephanie, I was shocked.

Maybe Muhammad Hassan for protesting the racial profiling of Arabs post 9-11?

Undertaker did some ridiculously evil things in 1998 and 1999, including admitting to purposely setting the fire that killed his parents and "burned" Kane.

If we're looking at kayfabe things, Big Bossman killing Al Snow's dog, getting Big Show's mom to tell him he's a bastard child, dragging his Dad's coffin with him in the Bluesmobile, that was pretty vicious stuff.
Then again, Snitsky was responsible for killing someone's baby. But, as he said on Raw one time, him and Kane were over that.

But didn't he use the Brody killing to get over as a face in Puerto Rico by portraying himself as Davey bravely slaying the bully Goliath in the form of Brody?

Yeah, but in the eyes of a racist audience, Sgt. Slaughter didn't look like "the other." Hassan did, and that was exactly his point - He (and millions of other Arabic people*) did nothing wrong, but are being racially discriminated against. Sgt. Slaughter could 'reverse' his allegiance, whereas Hassan was powerless to change his ethnicity. * = Yes, I am aware that the man who portrayed the Muhammad Hassan character was not in fact of Arabic dissent; I am describing the situation in kayfabe terms.

Well, Kane is still mad for the whole Katie Vick thing and Jeff is still upset about being put in the hospital if Survivor Series 2007 is to be believed, so maybe HHH didn't get a pass

Did Sting ever forgive Hogan? It seemed like they were always at odds after Bash at the Beach 1996.
I guess you do NOT tell the fans to "stick it" around Sting.

Steve Austin made amends to Owen on the tribute show for breaking his neck, but he WAS previously bitter that Owen didn't do as much as check up on Austin after the accident.

Calling Mickie James fat is unforgivable. Amusingly enough, out of all the despicable heel acts in pro wrestling, that one seemed to get the worst reaction here. McCool caught the kind of heat you read in CM Punk stories.
