he didn't develop any phrase. Lil Jimmy screwed him over costing him his world title shot. But he's apoligized obviously Check your facts. R-Truth apologized to Little Jimmy right before the 'no confidence' thing with HHH. Just sayin'... Also, the Awesome Truth as a tag team sorta failed. So they broke the team up-- traditionally one person becomes the heel and the other is a face. Miz could've gone face tbh, but seeing all the 'Good Li'l Jimmies' signs (ala all the 'Peeps' signs that Christian fans used to have with the arrows pointing down) must've looked like visions of $$$'s in Vince's mind's eye. Then there's also the fact that Miz is putting over Crazy Face Truth like he's a million bucks, hence pushing him even further into the ME than he (barely) was with the Crazy Heel Truth gimmick. Like it or not, the face thing is working. He's gonna be over as hell, and it will be great for his career and bank account. No denying that. Just personal preference, that's all. Now that I know how awesome Ron Killings is as a performer, I'll enjoy his work as a face. But the gimmick I enjoyed has fundamentally altered, and it makes me sad.

On what planet was he any different from how he acted as a heel? He's pandering to the crowd. Before he was insulting the crowd, and it was far more entertaining. I will say the split reaction is interesting to me, and maybe Creative is onto something. Far be it for me to say that my opinion is the only one that matters ;D

Welcome to the Internet where faces suck and heels are great I'll admit I fall into this category as well. And since most faces do suck I have no problem feeling that way.

I hate to tell you this but you're the crowd to. It reminds me of the episode of the Simpsons with Whacking Day.

Why do people like what? The insults to the crowd? Because they are damn funny.

Face Truth is just as awesome as Heel Truth. He's still batshit crazy and he was hilarious as all hell last night. Besides, it's not like they just made him all instantly buddy/buddy with Cena again. Although, I must say I'm depressed that Johhny Ace didn't remind Miz about how it wasn't long ago that he was assaulting people. Silly hypocrite.

Or is this just another case of "(Smark favorite heel) turns face!!!! We hate him now!!!" *Nods* Most likely, yes.

I haven't seen any real shift to be honest; outside of him regularly kicking the Miz's ass.
I mean sure he's pandering some, but it's insane pandering, so I'm totally fine with that.
