5 Best heels in WWE today

#2 Rusev

Rusev gets better as he continues to stand toe to toe with WWE’s best babyfaces

The man gets props just for bringing his lovely wife out to the ring every single week. But there's more to the “Bulgarian Brute” than just his sidekick. After the failed League of Nations stable, Rusev was nothing more than a jobber who caught a partial break.

Now, the strongman has rebuilt himself into a monster heel who is facing one of his stiffest challenges yet. There is a world title in his future and as long as he continues to draw heat from the fans for the anti-American stance, he has a long road ahead in the main event picture.

WWE has done well to capitalise on his strengths and the fact that he plays the heel role so well. Oh, did we mention having Lana by his side doesn’t hurt him either?
