5 WWE Raw Superstars who must turn heel to rejuvenate their careers

#4 Bobby Lashley

Ever since returning to WWE after WrestleMania 34, Bobby Lashley has had a rough time. His initial feuds killed off any momentum he had. Firstly he was thrown into a one sided rivalry between himself and Braun Strowman against Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens, and then he started a one on one feud with Sami.

That spelled disaster as WWE's writing team basically buried both men with their bad booking. He had a main event level feud with Roman Reigns, but although he won their PPV encounter, Reigns was the one chosen to face Lesnar at SummerSlam.

The hidden story behind JBL and a WWE writer

Lashley's baby face character has lost all steam. His last appearance on Raw was a handicap match against The Ascension, and he won the match easily. But the talking point was his promo with Baron Corbin backstage.

He was smiling and talking like a goofy happy go lucky person. That is NOT the Bobby Lashley we all expected. The fans want to see the ass kicking Lashley who speaks less and does more. The Lashley that left WWE all those years ago isn't the Lashley we have today. The only logical option here is a heel turn.

Lashley has signed a long term contract with WWE, he isn't going anywhere soon. So if WWE wants to make the most of him, they need to turn him heel to reap the benefits. A heel character is easier to connect with the crowd.

Lashley just needs to do his talking in the ring, and the crowd will be behind him. A heel turn followed by an alliance with Braun Strowman against The Shield would be best for business.
