5 Shocking Heel Turns that we can witness in 2019
WWE has witnessed a huge number of top-class heels throughout its history. Legendary superstars like Ric Flair, Randy Savage, and Vince McMahon himself has proven us how important a heel is in the world of pro-wrestling.
There have been many instances of a heel turn changing superstars careers and pushing them to the top level. A great recent example is none other than "The Man" Becky Lynch, who recently won the main event of WrestleMania 35 and became the RAW and SmackDown Women's Champion.
There are many more superstars in the current roster who could benefit a lot by turning heel and giving a new direction to their characters. Seeing these babyfaces turn heel would surely be a shocking yet amazing experience.
In this article, let's take a look at the 5 shocking heel turns that we can witness this year in WWE. Do let us know who do you think would succeed the most as a heel?
#5 Finn Balor
To many fans who haven't followed Finn Balor's career, he seems like a nice sweet guy who smiles at everything and spreads happiness. But to those who have watched him before when he wasn't in WWE know how vicious of a heel he could be.
Finn Balor, formerly known as Prince Devitt, was the guy who formed and started the infamous Bullet Club in New Japan Pro Wrestling. His work as a heel there and as the leader of this villainous group was amazing. It's tough to believe that Finn went from that ruthless person to be a top babyface in WWE.
At WrestleMania 35, Balor stepped into the ring as the Demon King, and there was just something very amazing about his monstrous side as he growled and scared his opponents. That's the Balor that WWE needs. Not a normal guy who gets beaten up by all the heels time and again.
2019 could well be Balor's year if he turns heel and reforms WWE's version of Bullet Club, the Balor Club. He had a short stint with Karl Anderson and Gallows, but with all of them as heels, this group can cause so much havoc to everything in their path.
Turning heel could also sky-rocket Finn Balor to the main event scene and maybe we can soon see him as the WWE/Universal Champion.
