5 best heel acts of 2015 in WWE

Owens powerbombs Machine Gun KellyWorld Wrestling Entertainment (and the world) has drawn to a close another year, and looking back, the majority of the year belonged to heels. The only babyface champion we had was Roman Reigns, for the last couple of weeks.The only championship dominated by a face was the United States Championship, held by John Cena, but now that is in the hands of Alberto Del Rio. Seth Rollins won Superstar of the Year, and had one of the best pay-per-view records of the year, having lost only two of his eleven matches, one of them being by disqualification. The New Day has dominated the tag team division, and have held the Tag Team Championships for a considerable amount of time. Kevin Owens has made a huge impact on WWE already. I needn’t further explain the success of heels in the past year.Heels also have certain moments where they seem like the most hated (or even more loved) person on the planet. This article looks at the top five instances of this, in order, for 2015.

A great moment

WrestleMania 31, what an event. Everything pieced together almost perfectly, and the ending perfectly captured that.

Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar were having a brilliant match, which surprised many. It came to a point where both men simply couldn’t get up. Then what happens? The biggest heel in the company comes down and steals the win, and the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.

What makes this such a great ‘heel act’ is that we will never know who would have won that match, and that the man who was in the match for about thirty seconds was the one to walk out the victor.

However, more people rejoiced than felt hatred, so this moment isn’t quite as high as the other ones.

And the other ones are pretty good at being bad.
