Anyone mention The Miz's latest yet?
Nobody gave a damn. Is this even a turn at all? I seen that Miz TV segment from Monday and he still acts kinda face-ish mixed with a little heel-like qualities. Is he even considered a heel at this point? If he is then I'd say his turn has been a gigantic fail so far.

I don't get it. At all. It's kind of a small horse, I mean what am I missing? Am I crazy?

Edge's from 2010 was the first that came to mind. Edge was one of the top guys in the company, and they couldn't think of a more dramatic heel turn than a promo in the middle of some random SmackDown episode? Turning him heel at that point was dumb anyway, but if you're set on doing it, at least do it right. The biggest problem with Edge's 2010 turn is that the fans were finally "allowed" to cheer him when he came back. They'd been dying to do so for the previous year.

I thought his heel turn came at the end of the Raw Draft 2010 episode where he attacked Orton for no reason, still it was stupid. I'd have to go also with Angle in 2001, the guy was getting over as the guy in the WWF to take on Austin and the Alliance and they turn him a couple of months after his face turn.

Eh, Edge was only turn because they all f**ked with his initial return as a face in early 2010. The reactions were getting tepid, and Smackdown was getting carpet-bombed in terms of talent due to the MyNetworkTV stuff, so it fixed an ailing gimmick and gave them a heel to throw at the recently face-ish Orton on RAW. It did suck in terms of a turn, but it was more necessary than most would like to believe.
