| Did you know there are many types of heels?
# Crazy heel: a raging madman, dangerous and unpredictable- they most commonly attack others for either no apparent reason, or they blame others for being "held back" from championship opportunities and other priviliges (example: Rowdy Roddy Piper, The Sheik; George "The Animal" Steele; Victoria; Mickie James; Sid Vicious; Mankind; Abdullah the Butcher; Heidenreich (2004); Kane (2003); Bruiser Brody, TARU, Edge, Chris Benoit (late 2002), and Eddie Guerrero (mid-2005)). Usually when a face with a comical gimmic turns heel, they will come crazy.
# Monster heel: an unstoppable juggernaut who squashes his opponents (examples: Gorilla Monsoon; Yokozuna; Umaga; Big Van Vader; Sylvester Terkay; King Kong Bundy; The Great Khali; Kane; Big Show, Brock Lesnar (2002), Batista, Aja Kong, Bull Nakano; Naoya Ogawa; Tyson Tomko (mid-2005 facing jobbers on WWE HEAT); Mark Henry; Samoa Joe, and Abyss in TNA). Sometimes, monster heels violently "injure" other wrestlers (through rulebreaking tactics), terrorize valets (sometimes injuring them) and commit other extremely heinous acts to set up a feud with a promotion's lead face. One example is the feud between The Giant and Hulk Hogan in 1994 when The Giant broke Hogan's neck. Another is in 1999, when The Undertaker was behind a reign of terror that led to his feud with Stone Cold Steve Austin. Also during Kane's heel runs, he often targets innocent people such as Jim Ross, Linda McMahon, and Lillian Garcia. # Egotistical heel: an obnoxious and self-important character who is arrogant or cocky; some wrestlers play on their own fame and achievements to achieve this (examples: Ted DiBiase; Randy Orton, Ric Flair, Hollywood Hogan, Jimmy Garvin, Vince McMahon, Bryan Danielson, The Rock, Gino Hernandez, Triple H, Brock Lesnar (late 2003-2004), Jeff Jarrett, Edge, Christian Cage, Alex Shelley, Kurt Angle, Sable, Trish Stratus, Michelle McCool, JBL, Chris Jericho, King Booker, Ken Kennedy, MNM, Mike "The Miz" Mizanin.
# Popular heel: a term in which the fans still cheer for a wrestler who competes as a heel. Some examples include: Shawn Michaels, Chris Benoit, The Road Warriors, Chris Adams, Kurt Angle, Ric Flair , Kane, The Undertaker, The Rock, Carlito, Rob Van Dam, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Samoa Joe, Mickie James, Mick Foley, Mr. Kennedy, Triple H, Randy Orton, Eddie Guerrero, Mike "The Miz" Mizanin and Christian Cage,Kristal Marshall . The Road Warriors, originally booed by the fans, gained new fans worldwide and eventually became faces around 1985, after they lost the AWA World Tag Team title to the team of Jimmy Garvin and Steve Regal due to interference by the Fabulous Freebirds. Adams was booed heavily when facing any of the Von Erichs, but was wildly cheered when wrestling other heels during his September 1984-January 1986 heel run; Adams would still greet fans afterwards and sign autographs. Adams eventually became Texas' most popular wrestler after turning face in 1986, and the 5th most popular wrestler in the world overall by 1987. Triple H is extremely popular despite displaying classic heel tactics, and is cheered upon appearing. Kurt Angle is widely considered as having been a heel for most of his career, but he wrestled a number of the best technical matches in the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) and was often cheered out of respect. Chants of "wooooooo" always echoed during Ric Flair's Entrance even though he was a heel member of Evolution. Kane received cheers upon appearing as well or when delivering his chokeslam finisher despite his morbid & violent character. The Rock is also cheered massively (most notably at Wrestlemania XIX) whether he's a face or heel because of his natural charisma.
# Delinquent Heel: a troublesome character who visually displays their uncivilized & despicable conducts such as profanity, vandalism and violence. Sometimes they harass or bully their opponents and even rebel against authority. (examples: Stone Cold Steve Austin, Brian Pillman, Diesel, John Cena, Rodney Mack, Jazz, Undertaker in his "Big Evil" persona during the first half of 2002, The Rock during his run as the leader of NOD, Carlito, Edge and Lita's "Rated-R Superstar" gimmick, Akira Maeda, Cactus Jack, SUWA, Tazz, Booker T, Test). In several occasions, Delinquent heels work with each other to form Tag Teams such as The Road Warriors, The Nasty Boyz, APA, Three Minute Warning, Los Guerreros, or groups such as D-Generation X, nWo, Mean Street Posse, DOA, Los Boricuas, Voodoo Murderers, Latin American Exchange. # Vulgar Heel: an obscene and indecent character. They always display PDAs and other immoralities. (examples: Shawn Michaels, Val Venis, Dude Love, Edge and Lita's "Rated-R Superstar" Gimmick. Sometimes the Divas seduce their opponents but it's hard for them to be classified as Vulgar Heels.
# Foreign heel: in United States wrestling, foreign heels are often portrayed as being anti-American, such as Russian (Nikolai Volkoff), Iranian (Iron Sheik), Canadian (Bret "the Hitman" Hart), Japanese (Kai En Tai, Mr. Fuji), or more recently, French (René Duprée, Sylvain Grenier). In Mexican wrestling, Americans are often portrayed as heels; the most hated tag team in lucha libre history, Los Gringos Locos, consisted of the Caucasian Art Barr and Eddie Guerrero, a Mexican-American from El Paso, along with another Caucasian in Louie Spicolli. There has been a Team Canada in World Championship Wrestling (WCW), WWE and Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA).
# Traitor heel: in the United States, a variation on the foreign heel who is actually an American, but has turned his back on his country in favor of an (ostensibly superior) one. For example, WWE wrestler Rob Conway portrayed a man who defected from America to France (a nation that vocally opposed the U.S.'s "weapons of mass destruction" rationale for invading Iraq in 2003), or Sgt. Slaughter, who was billed as an Iraqi sympathizer during the first Persian Gulf War, and Brian Pillman and Jim Neidhart, who despite being American, sided with Canadians Bret Hart and Owen Hart and Englishman the British Bulldog in the pro-Canada Hart Foundation. Also, Muhammad Hassan and Khosrow Daivari as angry Arab-Americans who resent the U.S. for how they've been treated ever since 9/11. In Japanese wrestling, a "traitor heel" is someone who goes against the established (usually mainstream, babyface) group he was part of within a promotion, such as Riki Choshu, Masa Chono, Kensuke Sasaki, and Great Muta in New Japan Pro Wrestling, Yoji Anjoh in UWF International, and Genichiro Tenryu in All Japan Pro Wrestling. These can be considered, more properly, delinquent/rebel heels, but because of Japan's societal mores, delinquent wrestlers are more often seen by Japanese fans as "traitors" to the promotion.
# Idol Heel: a heel mostly based on his arrogance, but unlike an egotistical heel, this character's confidence is usually derived from his good looks and future potential as opposed to his amazing ability and past accomplishments. This type of heel was extremely popular in the late 1980s and early 1990s. This type of heel can blur the line with an egotistical heel though, often using certain characteristics akin to that genre. (examples: Johnny Nitro, Shawn Michaels (1992 to 1995), Randy Orton, Edge & Christian (2000 to 2001), and Chris Chetti

| Pepsi Plunge was CM Punks special in CZW it was a Pedigree off the top rope... WWE banned it though.
If you go to Youtube and look up Pepsi Plunge you should see it its awesome. | |
