5 great heel turns we still talk about today

#1 Seth Rollins betrays The Shield

It's fitting that in the week that Seth Rollins seemingly turned heel again that we talk about his original turn to the dark side.

It was June 2nd, 2014, and The Shield were off the back of the biggest victory of their career, clean sweeping Evolution the night before at Payback.

Many presumed that they were all set to skyrocket to the top of WWE as their most popular group in years. That was until Triple H unveiled his Plan B.

Somewhere over the course of that night's RAW, The Game was able to persuade Rollins to betray his brothers and join The Authority.

It was the perfect moment. The visual of Seth hitting Roman Reigns in the back and the look of shock on the face of Dean Ambrose will live long in the memory of fans worldwide.

The timing of the turn was shocking given the events at the PPV the night before. Whilst many knew they'd split eventually, it's safe to say that just about nobody expected it to happen here.

It led to a chain of events that built successful singles careers for each man. Whilst their journeys have taken different paths in 2019, you can't argue in hindsight that this was the perfect time to end The Shield.
