Bryan joining the Wyatts. It was supposed to last a while, hell Bryan's WM attire was supposed to be his Wyatt attire so that's extra proof. Glad it ended when it did. I'm torn on this. The way it played out was bear perfect, but Bray really needed a feud with someone where he actually converts someone for more than two weeks. Bray's only ever tried to convert one guy so as far as I'm concerned it's just not something he normally does. And I'll be glad for them to keep it that way |

Can we stop pretending Face Del Rio was never over? I hope so. Del Rio was over like Rover as a face. "Was" is the key word. Crowds died when he and Ricardo did those terrible promos that mocked Swagger and Ziggler. I don't blame them. |

Ahmed Johnson joining the Nation. I remember he turned on the Undertaker to join them right at the end of Raw after they ditched Savio and Crush; I then went on holiday for a couple of weeks, and when I came home Ahmed was back as a single guy and I literally didn't remember he had turned until a while later when I saw some reference to it in the WWF magazine. I still don't know what happened there  |

JBL had this random turn some months after he lost the title to Cena where he tagged with Rey and some other faces for like 2 weeks then it was over. I don't even remember what it was about. MIght have just been for one episode. Wasn't that part of the "Smackdown vs. Raw" storyline? |

I still don't know what happened there The nation booted him out after a match with Chainz (I think he was injured or he just came back from injury, It happened so close together), Anyway that heel turn killed Ahmed stone dead. |

- Alberto Del Rio, super babyface: Was there a person less suited for a main event face push than Alberto Del Rio? Yes. Like half of the roster. Including the guy he spent most of that run feuding against, Big Show. I love Show, he's in my top ten favourites - but this revisionist history about Del Rio never being over is getting ridiculous. |

I'm not sure if it was a full turn, but didn't Hurricane start acting very heelishly? I think along the lines of snaching away his mask from kids at ringside and acting like a bitch to Rosey?

Drew McIntyre's face turn version 1.0 - Helped Kelly from Laycool in 2010, booked back into a heel the next week on Smackdown and there on.
Drew McIntyre's face turn version 2.0 - Fought Jinder Mahal on Superstars, joined with Jinder Mahal and Heath Slater to form 3MB the next night on Smackdown.

CM Punk joined the New Breed only to turn against them two weeks later. That wasn't a turn though was it? More of an undercover operation. |

Colin Delaney, the Mikey Whipwreck of WWECW, managed to get over with the fans not only through sympathy from all his squashes made by Armando Estrada, but by also putting in some incredible performances when tagging with Tommy Dreamer.
So for absolutely no f***ing reason he turned heel on Tommy Dreamer at the Great American Bash, then Mark Henry went out and said he wanted nothing to do with the punk. He got fired a week later.

I'd say Shawn Michaels was recent one. He was getting cheered like crazy Monday Night and no one seemed to bring up him costing Daniel Bryan the championship.

Can we stop pretending Face Del Rio was never over? hell it was probably the time he was the MOST over. turning him heel again sucked out all his momentum and he never recovered. |

Who was Bryan originally going to be put with at WrestleMania if he was part of the Wyatts?? Glad it went the way it did though, Bryan's celebration is one of my favourite WrestleMania endings. Sheamus. |

I think the negative reactions were justified. It really did seem like they were trying to side track Bryan from the main storyline and transfer his heat onto Bray. To be fair, if they let him have the title after Summerslam for like a month before The Authority stuffk kicked into gear, people wouldn't have revolted as hard. I mean the whole thing was about Bryan never getting a fair shot and always always always getting screwed over so you know who needs to be the hero of the story? Some dude we haven't seen in 3 years who's only getting this push because he's in a movie. Let that little beard guy fight the hillbillies and that pale guy. Revenge? f*** that, BATISTA WAS IN A MOVIE GUYS! MUSCLES! BIG! Vince McMahon logic, folks. He loses at NOC or Battleground, then he has his reign and people would probably be alright with that and move on like WWE wanted them too. |

Kaitlyn's heel turn was cut from the episode of SmackDown it was meant to air on. Supposedly Vince want too high on the idea. A pity, because Kaitlyn would have fit right in with Beth and Natalya. |

The American Rockstar Heath Slater defending his country against Rusev. Only lasted one night and was never spoken of again.
