He filmed the movie a year ago (pretty sure WWE did a few segments about it) but otherwise, the writers goofed up by planning a heel turn so close to the air date of his crappy tv movie so they had to change it...even though it now makes no sense.

I wouldn't be surprised if both Kofi and Miz turned heel. I don't understand why they are so hesitant on turning Miz back into a heel. If they really wanted to return him to heeldom, they should've had him stab Kofi in the back rather than just walk out on him. Have him retire the figure-four, go back to using the Skull Crushing Finale as his main finisher, bring "I'm the Miz...and I'm AAAAWEEESOMMMEE!!!" and "Really? Really? REALLY?" out of retirement, and go back to pushing him again rather than sticking him in the midcard. Hopefully he doesn't go the Del Rio way. Also, Kofi turning heel is very bad for business. He is a natural babyface and falls into the Rey Mysterio/Sin Cara category of perma-faces. They all fit perfectly with WWE's big cash cows (Cena, Taker, Mysterio again) and a few other guys who I doubt will ever be heel in WWE again (R-Truth, Santino, Khali, Hornswoggle). Heel Kofi is fresher than heel Miz. Miz has done it all as a heel and has accomplished almost nothing as a face apart from a 24 hour IC title reign. Kofi turning heel would also ideally create a void for new faces to step up. Kofi remaining a face just keeps the entire roster stagnant. I was pleasantly surprised when Big E won the IC Title and I hope other non-Kofi midcard faces can get those same opportunities. But I'm not sure if that will ever happen as long as Kofi is face. He filmed the movie a year ago (pretty sure WWE did a few segments about it) but otherwise, the writers goofed up by planning a heel turn so close to the air date of his crappy tv movie so they had to change it...even though it now makes no sense. I don't think the movie has anything to do with his alignment. He was heel when the Marine 3 came out.

Neither can I. They took the most dislikable babyface on the roster, a guy who fans were waiting for any excuse to boo (well, the ones who weren't booing him already), and then they tease a heel turn but try to play it up as ambiguous. When did they tease A Heel turn with Kofi?

Miz talking about the thing with Kofi on Main Event. Basically saying it's to get people's attention

I honestly want to see both of them turn heel and form a douchebag tag team. Their goal is to beat up any wrestler they think is outperforming them. I like this idea. It's been a while since we had a WCW-style 'Two guys seem to be turning on each other then turn on someone else.'
