So far Orton has.
Every tag team except for American Alpha is heel.
La Luchadora turned heel by aligning with Bliss.
Ellsworth turned heel on the people.
Rhyno may turn heel on Slater.
Ambrose may turn heel on Shane.
Cena acts like a heel but I doubt he'll turn.
Oh and Ziggler is definitely turning.

This is all leading to the shocking rehiring of Vince Russo, who has spent a whole year of his life trying to work out the specific workings of a three-tiered guantlet match wherein a face, a tag team, and a woman tag in and out to face the entireties of their respective divisions. Cena, American Alpha, and Becky are going to have their work cut out for them when they face the entire Smackdown roster, especially when the actual booking of the match turns into a confused mess that forgets its own rules.

And the IWC will still love it more than RAW.

I want Mauro to turn heel. His awkward pop culture references are now to really crappy things as opposed to what's popular.

Holy shit, it didn't even occur to me how few faces there are on SD right now.
Right now, there's:
- Dean Ambrose - John Cena - Chad Gable - Jason Jordan - Heath Slater - Rhyno - Apollo Crews - Kalisto
That's really, really thin.

Yeah, that's basically it. SmackDown's pretty much running a skeleton crew right now.

And the IWC will still love it more than RAW. Of course...because it really boils down to the same fact: Even though ostensibly they should be a heel, they run as a hero? Check. Even if the opponent has a point, they're automatically evil because they're the opponent? Check. The fans truly believe they can do no wrong, and trust in them and only them to give them what they want? Check. If there's any cases that they may not be God's gift to the sport themselves, the fans openly ignore it in favor of what they want? Check. If they're in play, that automatically makes that show the place to be? Check. ...search your feelings, you know this to be true: Pro wrestling has gotten to a point where we fans are savvy enough, to truly, conclusively say that going into 2017, the biggest babyface in the entire WWE is Ryan Ward.

That, or all of his references become driven by really terrible opinions about things. "Mama Mia, AJ Styles really is one of the best competitors we've ever seen! He's like the Transformers 5: The Last Knight of professional wrestling!"

Everyone on Smackdown but Becky Lynch and John Cena have turned heel. All of the superstars are surrounding them in the ring, chanting for them to join them.
Becky: "I ain't turnin' my back on these fans, Cena!"
John: "Now you know I'm not turning heel for nobody, 'cause I'm John Cena. Recognize."
Becky: " *sigh* well, I guess it's come to this...."
(Becky punches herself in the face and is knocked out)
Mauro: "MAMA MIA BECKY LYNCH HAS TURNED ON HERSELF! I CAN'T TELL WHETHER OR NOT TO CONDONE OR CONDEMN THIS!"

(Becky punches herself in the face and is knocked out) Mauro: "MAMA MIA BECKY LYNCH HAS TURNED ON HERSELF! I CAN'T TELL WHETHER OR NOT TO CONDONE OR CONDEMN THIS!" The whole group then looks at Cena, saying "Join Us. Join Us." Cena keeps saying he won't turn heel for nobody. He's John Cena. Finally, Daniel Bryan and Shane McMahon come to the ring. "John...don't you get it? It's over. Everyone's a heel now. The entire Smackdown locker room is a heel. We're heels. And these fans still cheer us over Raw, so THEY'RE heels. This is a world of heels on Smackdown, but if everyone's a heel, then that means by definition the heels are actually the babyfaces, and anyone who remains a babyface inherently becomes the heel. You don't have to turn heel, John. The world turned heel, and that paradigm shift means YOU ALREADY DID TURN HEEL." Cena looks at everyone in the roster, then himself, then the fans, and the logic finally reaches him. "Well, luckily I got this logic in Jacksonville- everyone here agrees that the Jaguars suck! Now let's have some Smackdown!" The crowd boos- then suddenly cheers, finally realizing that if everyone's a heel, then everyone's a babyface, and that they no longer have to be cool smarks and cheer the heels, they can cheer the babyfaces again since they're all inherently heels, and this means they are cool to cheer again. ...and that's the story of how John Cena gave the Internet world peace. Didn't see that coming? Well, of course. It WAS John Cena, after all.

The sad thing is, all of the guys who have turned heel since the brand split needed to because they were so stale before it. I'm sure they're not turning guys heel for the sake of doing it, but listen to the reaction from Dolph turning; it was necessary.

Exactly Ryan Ward and the NXT bookers also turned tons of guys n gals in his NXT days, and it mostly worked (f.e. Big E Langston, CJ Parker, Sasha etc)
