Captain Lou Albano had a whopping almost 30 year run as a heel. Also, the Sheik had a very long career and never turned face.

If we're counting people who never turned at all then Tito Santana I believe has the record for longest running character who never turned. Tito was face his entire run from 1983 to 1993. Rey Mysterio has been a face for 17 years and counting. Rey’s been a face for the entirety of his WWE runs (not counting that time people booed him in the 2014 Rumble for not being Daniel Bryan). |

Rey Mysterio's a heel. He's forcing Dominick on us.  |

I always found Rey to be a very unlikable face so it surprised me he's only been a heel in his career for a cup of coffee.

Undertaker started as a heel in 1990, turned face early 1992, didn't turn heel officially again until mid 1999.

Jinder Mahal has spent over nine years over two years on the main roster, and has always been heel.

ricky steamboat. oh wait- did he ever turn heel? Not in WWE, no. I know he had a run in Ring of Honor as a non-wrestler, but I don't know if he turned at any point during that, then he came back for the brief run against Jericho, where he was obviously a face. |

Two modern era names that came to my mind were Roman and Finn. Thinking they would both belong in the discussion? To be honest, it'd still be interesting if Judgment Day's booking might keep Finn from going full-on heel. The heel turn didn't really take in NXT because a) he was a little too cartoonishly heel to be taken seriously and b) his target of that heel turn, Gargano, ended up turning heel about a month later anyway. Facing the very annoyingly-booked face Mysterios is not helping solidify Judgment Day's heeldom and, it must be said, Damian is proving a more suitable leader for the faction in Rhea's absence. Finn has the capacity to turn all three of them babyface, in fact, if they're seen as a "cool" faction a la the Shield. However, between Rhea's injury and Vince being found out being Vince, it all feels like an overall burial for all three of them. |
