7 wrestlers who are perfect as heels and faces

Triple H knew the art of manipulating fans to provide the exact reaction he wants

What sets a wrestler apart? Is it the ability to win over fans so much that they become your hero/heroine? Or is it the ability to make you hate them so much that they start detesting everything about you? Then there are wrestlers who have perfected the art of doing both.

They can go from the guy who fans would give up their lives for to the guy who they’d even kill given the chance. Here’s 7 wrestlers who’ve perfected the art of playing both face and heel. 


Honorable mention- Mr. Vincent Kennedy McMahon 

When we’re talking about wrestlers who’ve perfectly played both heels and faces, how can we not mention one of the most diabolical bosses we’ve ever seen, who in the words of Jim Ross would “ no doubt overthrow the devil and take over hell once he gets there” and the boss who wouldn’t back down when his family’s is on the line or when someone tries to mess with his daughter.

Mr. McMahon was brilliant as a heel in his feud against the face of the company during the Attitude Era, Stone Cold Steve Austin. Who didn’t hate him when he tried to screw over the Texan Rattle Snake. Who didn’t love it everytime Degeneration-X got the better of Vince McMahon both in their early days and after their reunion in 2006. Even as the patriarch of the Corporation and the Ministry, one could say he wrote the textbook for all aspiring heels.
