5 Wrestlers who are way better as heels

It's not always about the heroes...

#3 Randy Orton

WrestleMania 30 Press Conference

Randy Orton was one of the BEST heels of the Ruthless Aggression Era, and he continues to impress us wrestling fans when he turns, keeping us invested in his character. Every single time he switches from good guy to bad guy, he finds new ways to keep us on the edge of our seats and that is why I love Randy Orton's heel work.

I especially loved his heel work in Evolution, which in turn, made me thoroughly enjoy his work when he turned face. I think that type of heel work is the best. You put butts in the seats being a complete jerk, then they stay there to adore you on your best days, while still being considered a credible threat.

In my opinion, this is Orton's best heel turn.

He is another one of those wrestlers that take to this persona so naturally. His voice, his appearance, and the fact that he hears voices in his head really sells it. Despite playing a character that is a borderline psychopath, everyone loves him for it, especially when he's a heel.

It is because of this, that Randy Orton will always be in my top 5 favourite wrestlers and one of the hardest workers in WWE.
