10 WWE heels who went too far

#6 Chris Jericho brings up CM Punk's family

On the road to WrestleMania 28, Chris Jericho got into a feud with WWE Champion CM Punk. This was a legit dream match and didn't need any angle to carry it forward, but it was given one, with Jericho bringing up the Straightedge Superstar's family and their battle with addiction.

Jericho addressed Punk on the titantron, talking about how Punk's father was an alcoholic and that that ruined his childhood. In another promo, Jericho mentioned Punk's sister and her issues with drugs. Punk had the last laugh though, as he went on to defeat Jericho at WrestleMania to retain his title.

#5 Sasha Banks crosses the line

On 12th August 2019, Sasha Banks made her WWE return after WrestleMania 35 and turned heel by attacking a helpless Natalya.

The incident in question took place on the latest episode of Monday Night Raw. As a distraught Natalya was giving a backstage interview on how Sasha Banks' attack affected her physically and mentally, The Boss came out of nowhere and launched another attack on her. Throughout the segment, Banks trashed talked to the injured Natalya, and finished it up with telling her to go to hell and say hi to her father.

Natalya later took to Twitter and posted a single word in response to Banks' comments on Raw: "Disgusted".

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
