The most recent heel turn in WWE, this one concerns someone who was one of the company's most naturally lovable stars: Bayley.

For years, fans sided with Bayley, a life-long wrestling fan who had worked hard to make her dream of being a WWE Superstar come true.

With this fan support, the Huggable One would capture the NXT Women's Championship in 2015, and in the years since would become the first Women's Grand Slam winner, holding the RAW, SmackDown and Women's Tag Team titles.

On this week's edition of Monday Night RAW though, Bayley gave in to her darker side, attacking RAW Women's Champion Becky Lynch and aligning herself with long-time friend and nemesis Sasha Banks.

Fans will remember that it was the Boss and Hug Connection who became the very first WWE Women's Tag Team Champions earlier this year.

What Bayley's shocking heel turn means for her SmackDown Women's Title match against Charlotte Flair at Clash of Champions is unclear, though it seems the Huggable One isn't the same kind Superstars fans fell in love with.
