cold open with this one, I enjoyed making it, it's a weird concept I had for a while. We can do one about TNA wrestlers or the Attitude Era, just wanted to test it out here. These guys were very different to each other, Jericho being the mostly logical guy who despite this, had his moments with HBK which showed how cold he could be, Triple H giving out bounties. Who was the best heel of the 2000s? A minor edit around 6:26 is gonna show up, just wanted to mention it.
The best heel in the early 2010s for me is Edge. Hands down.
Please be careful when touching racist topics UA-cam algorithm is fucked up and can ruin you channel even just mentioning the word is a problem
@@kazuhasglovesHe retired in 2011 though.
This is a topic that is always talked about or debated.
If we're including TNA we've got to talk about Jeff Jarrett's own reign of terror (first heel win I ever saw where the crowd littered the ring with rubbish) plus Kurt Angle as the paranoid godfather of the main event mafia. Both great, especially now I'm old enough to really appreciate heels like Jarrett
The 2000s were full of natural heels such as HHH, Orton, Edge, Jericho, JBL, Angle, Hollywood Rock. Lita, Kane, Bischoff, Eddie Brock. Christian and more. They were some of the most hated heels throughout that decade.
Don't forget Vickie Guerrero
I'd say big show was a pretty good heel in the early 2000s, but that's just my opinion lol.
Triple H, Edge, Randy Orton, JBL, Chris Jericho and Kane were the best heels in 2000's in my opinion... All those guys made fans hate them legit and did their job perfect.
@@noob_killer0047replace Kane with Vince and jechrio with lita
Eddie Brock?
Heels in the 2000s were truly menacing beyond belief. They acted way more evil and did stuff that legitimately got controversy for them and the company as a whole. Triple H with his infamous reign of terror and burying many talent on Raw, Randy Orton as the Legend Killer was a menace, Edge as the Rated R Superstar speaks for itself, and so many more. Heels truly were more evil back then, and I miss that creativity with them back then.
Social media ruined wrestling. Everyone knows that bad guys aren’t really bad except for MJF (maybe)
@@theharv1490 And hell even he gets cheered.
@@theharv1490social media ruined it because they will cry if it’s too offensive
@@pleaseshutup7053 Exactly! I was born towards the end of the Ruthless Aggression era but I’m watching it back and I miss the wild stuff WWE used to do
Hell yeah, in the 2000s, they were able to do anything and everything they wanted with no limits. They had their little shenanigans that made you want to scratch their eyes out each time you seen them on TV or live in person
Randy Orton in 2009-2010 will always remain one of my favorite heels of all time. He had the look, was at his leanest, the nearly bald skin fade, and he clearly put alot of effort into making his mannerisms slow and methodical both in his entrances and matches. Who could forget the storylines of him punting everyone and bullying the Legacy.
The guy was the epitome of the perfect heel. There's a video here called "Randy Orton 2009 badass entrance", everyone watch it once to get an idea.
Facts he was a solidified top heel during that run
He was punting the whole family 😭
He gave no fuxks😭wasn’t even bout a belt that’s the best part it was just revenge
Mark Henry shoulda been on here. The way he terrorized smackdown in the mid 2000s is legendary
If he didn’t tear his knee in 2006 he would have had a great feud with Batista
He would've been sure a Grizzly type of heel that time
The PG Era really restricted what heels could do to get heat. Some exceptions are Chris Jericho and Roman Reigns, but most heels are either generic or cartoon villians these days.
the last heelish thing that made you want heels to get their ass beat was when rhea ripley took out beth phoenix with a concherito (however you spell it) or when reigns kicked out sami zayn for helping kevin owens, and when seth attacked a already injured cody rhodes with his bicep injury. Thats about it. Heels dont go overboard like they use to anymore. they just cheat to win or just talk crap about the city theyre in.
Lmao Roman reigns was a face that the fans hated 😂😂
As crazy as it sounds, men should attack women in WWE. I mean Randy does it…
Blame chris benoit for the pg era
@@damaniresida6439and Linda mcmahon
Triple H was the Ultimate Heel to me. I remember classmates coming to school seething at him. He had a element of every great heel. Edge's sinister ways, Randy's Sadistic-ness, Rock's arrogance. He did it all
Cause HHH is their daddy. 🎮🎮🎮 Respect to you for respecting The Game.
@@Speedyreedy1218 hands down Dawg they all them names I named got it from Hunter. The Measuring Stick
@@jruwilkerson1356 And you even remembered The Measuring Stick promo he did!
I'm impressed.
👐🏾👐🏾👐🏾
You acknowledge your King of Kings!!!
👩🏾And it's sis by the way. Woman fan and lifelong HHH fan over here.
Vince McMahon is the greatest heel to me followed closely to HHH
Edge, HHH, JBL I couldn’t absolutely stand. You don’t know how times I wanted to smash my TV when they cheated to win. But I’m glad these guys took place in my childhood.
And Orton
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again
Nobody has or ever will be as big of a heel in wrestling as Mr. McMahon
Bret screwed Bret
Mr. McMahon screwed Mr. McMahon
And the WWE as well
Don't forget Steve Austin
And he doesn't even have to act.
For me 2008-2009 Randy Orton will always be the greatest Heel of the 2000's. That entire journey of watching Orton come back from his shoulder injury with tattooed sleeves that had skulls covering his arms to watching him lose his mind punt kicking people in the temple was one of the most maniacal angles I've ever seen. There are some wrestlers who just have that look like they were made for the role they played and Orton played it flawlessly. You actually believed he was fighting an inner demon that wanted nothing but to inflict pain onto anyone who stepped in the ring with him. And no one was off limits either.
Legend killer was a better heel
Nowadays heels get cheered more than a face. Some of my favorites are Edge Jbl Triple H Orton & Cm Punk
Because WWE can’t book faces properly
Because heels sound more natural and like real people
@@pleaseshutup7053it's almost like we ourselves are heels 😂
Triple H wasn't known to be a racist beforehand ?!?! We're just gonna ignore the whole DX Nation of Domination blackface segment 😂😂
😂😂 and the dx segment when they trashed the nation of domination locker room and wrote the n word
Triple h with dx also went to new York and moocked Pakistanis 😂😂
The problem with WWE now is that it’s hard to genuinely hate a heel which I know sounds weird but they don’t really act bad
It feels forced. Hard to “ hate” A heel when he can be seen on a podcast or interview being all normal and talking about his role. Back than you truly believed in the characters. Every one took pride in there characters and now it’s like you can clearly see everyone is acting
Dominic Mysterio and Logan Paul are probably WWE's best heels right now. They get actual heat and people legit hate them. It's been awhile since that has happened.
Or being a heel now or in general is the new face it seems, look at Roman who is a very good example
@@justinterry7853 I would say Roman is more of a tweener now. His character is complex to the point where when he acts bad he gets booed a lot but people like seeing him because he is a top star
@@MrYowieman People only hate Logan Paul because of what he did in Japan, not because of any actual skill at being a heel. He's a bad person.
JBL fending off the Mexican immigrants at the border is one of the funniest segments ever, also very racist but god damn was that funny.
JBL doing a nazi salute in Germany will perhaps be the most wildest thing he's done in his life 💀
😂😂😂😂😂
I miss the Ruthless Aggression era….
Depends what you like I suppose I will say I wish WWE wasn't so Pg now because it could make the stars next level with ruthless aggression and attitude era level edge
HHH during 2000-2005 is an easy top 3 heel in WWF/WWE. His Feuds with The Rock, Shawn Michaels and Batista were awesome.
Bro the feud between HHH and Rock doesn’t get the love it deserves. They kept the company afloat while Austin was out. McMahon-Helmsley regime really made you hate them back in the day.
Rock stone cold undertaker hbk 3 faces of Mick Foley...hhh legendary
I will never, EVER, forget that moment at Elimination Chamber when Edge lost the wwe title real quick to go Jeff Hardy at the beginning of the match then went on to whoop Koffi later that night and take his place to win the whole thing for the world heavyweight title 😂 as a kid I was crying tears of blood from hatred (Randy slapping the ref to get dq against Cena at a ppv was vile too but not on the level of edge )
Yeah cause Randy has done more diabolical things which is on another level compared to edge.......
Golden days that JBL era was something, he and cena was a hell of fun to watch.
Ngl the heels I would cheer were edge and orton since they were my favorite wrestlers and I loved their crazy antics towards their rivals. Now triple h, JR said it himself: "DAMN TRIPLE H DAMN HIS FAMILY"
Raw would always end with someone bloody and Triple H with the sledgehammer
@@wrestlingspremierNot always
Honestly, thank god MJF is keeping that old school heel heat alive. Creating controversy and being as despicable as possible even if he is one of the most loved heels today because of how the audience has matured and know its not real at this point.
That "you think you know me" ruined SO many moments for me as a child
I honestly couldn’t stand Edge during back then. Cashing in on John Cena/The Undertaker, costing John Cena the WWE Championship at ECW One Night Stand 2006, Attacking Kofi Kingston and stealing his spot in the Elimination Chamber, and slapping John Cena’s Dad. It was like Edge thought to himself how can I top this everytime he did something heel.
@@snakeeyes2551 marrying with Vickie just so he can be wwe champion is wild lMao
@@pleaseshutup7053 Oh yeah let’s not forget Edge’s feud with Matt Hardy. He straight up tortured him.
Bounty on Goldberg was wild.. like how was Vince getting away some of these segments is dirty work 😂
That's why I like Reigns heel run - The Tribal Chief gimmick is present in everything he says and does. He lives and breathes his gimmick and you see it in his matches, the segments, his promos the way he uses his seniority in the family to manipulate everyone to do his bidding.
There's hardly a heel these days where they do that whereas in the 2000s, it was full of guys who did that exact thing - which was living up to their moniker.
Triple H - The Cerebral Assassin
Edge - The Rated R Superstar/Ultimate Opportunist
Randy Orton - The Viper/Legend Killer
Undertaker - Big Evil
Lesnar - Here Comes The Pain/The Next Big Thing (First WWE run)
Kurt Angle - The Wrestling Machine
JBL - The Wrestling God
CM Punk - Straight Edge Messiah
Jericho - The Savior of WWE
The line up of heels from the 2000s were loaded.
Reigns is boring and his gimmick isn't believable at all. But standards have been so lowered...
Its a shame the quality of faces couldnt match the heel talent.
@@Speedyreedy1218THANK YOU! It was interesting and fun at first especially when Roman had Braun Strownman to beef with but it got stale after a year or so and the way he talks he’s not believable at all it’s so cringe and even more cringe to see Paul Heyman so out of character and constantly kissing his ass and calling him my tribal chief all the damn time. I finally get what people were saying about him years ago I’m so tired of this gimmick lol
@@yelhsanosnhoj6602 Same guy no wanted 11 years ago. But Vince stopped pushing who fans wanted years ago.
@@Speedyreedy1218 honestly I’d rather watch Roman Reigns wrestle than Daniel Bryan or CM Punk I will NEVER understand the infatuation with either of those guys but that’s just me. The crowds became Karens just like their Karen leader CM Punk and made it more unwatchable for me than anything the company and wrestlers do TBH 😩 but yeah Roman is stale asf and it’s time for him and his weirdly square jawline to go
09 orton was a certified menace
You can say at that time, it was sum up of many things that lead to him being at his most despicable. From anger issues, injuries to betrayals from groups, you name it. it would seem to make his 2009 self be a catharsis quite
this is the topic I was talking about with my wrestling fans that I miss heels like these that made you hate them. Like when jbl gave eddie guerreros mother a heart attack, when randy orton kept taking anyone out punting them and cenas father and even said eddie guerro was in hell, when edge slapped cenas dad and do other stuff. Even vickie guerrero was a amazing heel. She knew how to draw heat just getting in the business. Dont get my started on HHH heel runs. Nowadays heels are so watered down or soft or to the point fans cheer them more now which is a problem. I felt the last true heelish thing a superstar did now was when seth rollins attacked cody rhodes injured bicep or reigns attacking sami zayn kicking him out the bloodline. We need vicious heels like what Edge, JBL, Triple H, Randy orton, chris jericho, vickie guerrero, kurt angle, hell wade barrett did back in the days that made you HATE THEM. Heels don't go overboard anymore like they use to.
Blame “PG”
@@theharv1490 we still had demented randy orton 2009 heel run in the pg so it cant be PG
I blame “Cancel Culture”
@@melvynwindmon1927It’s really because of two things, WWE got lazy and strayed away from quality, and because of social media, imagine Triple H posting a TikTok with Eugene in 2004 after he beat the shit out of him the previous episode of Raw.
@@DougieYTWould be hilarious but also defeat the purpose of even watching them feud on TV😂😂
men jbl was such a heel and a menace on smackdown this men was acting like he was trump 😂😂
bro was so wild
@@wrestlingspremier most definitely 😂💯
He was even better on commentary. I remember in the mitb ladder match Matt hardy had sharmell in a twist of fate and JBL was like “BOOKER GET THE DAMN BRIEFCASE YOU CAN ALWAYS GET ANOTHER WIFE”
@@pleaseshutup7053 facts
@@pleaseshutup7053😂😂😂😂😂
2000s Triple H was diabolical, manipulative, and the type of heel you wanted to see ANYONE dethrone. Same can be said for Edge who just made your slim crawl with how slimy of a heel he was, but 2000s Randy Orton was a flat out menace to society especially from about 2006-2009.
Bro bald Randy Orton was DESPICABLE
@@thejuggl3r4422008-2009 he was a sick monster 😂
@@terrancecarmichael619 💯
Heel Edge was something else. This man was diabolical.
Surprised you didn’t bring up Big Evil Undertaker, much like HBK was a short heel run but Taker really seemed menacing with the way he hurt other wrestlers at times.
Vince McMahon and 2000’s KANE are no doubt the most diabolical heels of all time😳😳😳
Once again Big Show is by far and away the most overlooked, most underrated weestler ever.
JBL in 2004 was just built different because the shit he did back then would have never fly in today's day and age. He be canceled in a heartbeat.
Which is crazy how can you get cancelled for fictional tv makes no sense
Most of the stuff WWE did back then would not work in today’s society unfortunately
I’m have way in and this is the “Greatest WrestlingVideo I’ve seen”. Had me cracking up. They was ruthless!!
Now Dominic Mysterio 😂😂😂
Lol love this video. It’s like “this happened, then that happened, then John cena’s dad casually gets his ass kicked, moving on” 🤣
Lmao I was just thinking that . That man took a lot of slugs for cena
One of your best videos
Facts they were so awesome 😊
2000s are the best lmao rko was a menace,so was edge and jbl
As a kid that occasionally would watch RAW and Smackdown during the 2000s, I will definitely give an unpopular hot take: during the 2000s when Bradshaw became JBL, JBL was actually a really good wrestler during that time period and just like Triple H, Jericho, Kane, etc, the heel role suited him perfectly to a T....
It was a good move when Bradshaw became JBL because at least Smackdown had its' own top heel that can equal Raw's Triple H when it comes to brand dominance. I remember he also formed his own stable named The Cabinet with Orlando Jordan, the Basham Brothers and Jillian Hall.
JBL had the most dramatic flip ive ever seen. Everyone liked to see him drink beer and play poker,and then everyone hated him tremendously
It's just business 🤷♂
"How do you turn a rapist into a good guy in just 3 months?" Ladies a gentlemen, the WWE for you 😂
I love that promo w/ booker t

Man triple H was so good that I literally thought this man was evil a possessed over that heavyweight championship. The thing she did to stay at the top storyline wise and behind the scenes just made it that much more believable.
Triple H is my favorite heel next to Edge & RKO only because they’re badass and cooler
How are they badass and cooler?
@@Speedyreedy1218 I meant for Triple h, edge and randy orton put together. But triple h happens to be my #1 favorite heel due to the fact that he looks like the final boss.
As far as a heel that I hated to the core, it’s jbl and Vince McMahon
@@Thelegendarychamp1 W
Finally the goat has come back to...... UA-cam
I wish WWE still booked their heels like this and put effort in their rivalries. If Austin Theory and LA Knight could do this in a feud, Theory could actually be turned around
Cancel culture would cry
dominik mysterio is getting heat like orton, jbl, hhh, edge, y2j, and kurt angle did back in the day which is a good sign of hope but i feel like he could do so much more as a heel like what those guys did back in the day. They need to make him go more overboard as a heel instead of the rey feud and hell be a bigger star. Even with judgement day as a whole.
Theory was actually getting a lot of heat last year when he won MITB, but he's never reached those levels of heel heat since thanks to HHH's booking.
@@malachiharris1103 theory wasn’t getting good heat he was getting that Vince is over pushing another talent kind of heat
@@malachiharris1103 that was turning into go away heat
"they basically killed Ric Flair" I laughed way too hard 😭
I never think about how bad all these heels are till you list the things they've done. I have always loved heels ever since I started watching WWE and now I'm like "what was wrong with me?" 💀
I wish John Cena would have turned heel, especially during the summer of CM Punk. That would have been the perfect time to do it since Punk was the top babyface
2006 would’ve been the perfect time for Cena to turn heel to.
Please HUSH just enjoy the show and go yall hyper assessing every show is the MAIN reason why wrestling sucks now
@@yelhsanosnhoj6602 Wrong. WWE sucks because there's no legit competition anymore.

Heels were downright evil in the 2000s. Randy Orton and Edge were the bane of my existence back in the day. I hated them so much! 🤣 Good times!
1:33 Attempted Murder Is Insane😭😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣🤣
The beginning of Roman's heel run reminded me of the good ole days
I would say MJF reminds me of those type of heels back in the day, but at the same time it just seems forced with him to the point its cheesy.

"the finest crack" indeed 🤣🤣🤣
I couldnt stand Edge when he was with Christian. When he went solo i loved him. Even tho he was a heel. His whole Him and Lita and Rated RKO times are goated
Real heels right here 🤣🤣
triple h jbl and mr kennedy great heel s for me during those times
Angles initial dominant heel run is my favorite pro wrestling period. Literally everybody on the roster caught the best belly to belly suplexes ever.
Heels today are so soft. They always running from matches.
2009 Randy Orton was just on another level.
You know why I think most modern heels don’t compare today? I think the big reason is that WWE forces their talent to stick to a strict script instead of giving them bullet points and telling them to improvise
It’s because people easily get offended now
I think kayfabe being gone is also a major factor why it's hard to create a completely heel character nowadays. Imagine WWE trying to create a new heel character with the same level of sadism like Orton back in 2009, but then you would also see the same wrestler on some podcasts or interviews being his real self, as a nice guy... So how can we hate that character when you know that wrestler's a really nice guy outside the ring? As an adult audience, it's hard to suspend disbelief in that cases lol
I guess the key to it is to not let their selves be over-exposed in social media, so at least we have no way to know how they are in real life... That way it's easier to suspend disbelief which basically makes pro-wrestling fun.
The 200s were the best decade in wwe for heels
Corbin and Dom are the prime examples of natural heels
Or Sonya, Bayley
I love Attitude Era heels but the Ruthless Aggression heels were different Randy Orton had deadliest finisher, Edge was definition of manipulative, Triple H made you hate him for 5 years in a half while wearing suit, JBL is funny as hell, and Y2J saved his career by turning heel
Yeah and Jbl was a good heel that cost him his work with cnbc
That promo that JBL gave after getting fired from cnbc is my favorite promo ever. He calls out the media calls out Americans and speaks nothing but facts 😂
With Orton don’t forget he slapped a ref to retain his title via DQ
My old elementary school friend got me hooked to wrestling back in fall 2007 and I remember turning the TV off on Friday nights to headaches over Edge and his antics. His ugly creepy face alone made me tense up as a kid. That’s how good of a heel Edge was.
Edge isn't ugly but his character made so many people hate him even more personally
Heel JbL was awesome 👏
Let's appreciate the JBL character because it would not fly in today's world 😂
I mean Donald trump got away with it
The heels during the Ruthless Aggression Era were brutal and diabolical. Triple H, Orton, Edge, JBL, McMahon, Lesnar, Angle, Booker T, Guerrero, Henry and Kane. There aren't many heels that are twisted and evil today in wrestling like MJF, Roman Reigns and Don Challis.
What's evil and twisted about Roman? 💤
@Speedyreedy1218 The way he manipulated his cousins andSami into working with him. He always belittled Jimmy and Jey into doing things that they don't want to.
@@mbeas9612 Sounds like typical family squabble. 😴
What a great time
Jeff Jarrett was the Most Hated Heel in the 2000s. I remember watching that JJ Era in the Mid 2000s
2:52, no, HHH actually wanted Orton to lay down and surrender the belt and then disappear into obscurity lol. He did NOT want him back in Evolution 😂😂
I loved the HHH/Booker squash match because he put that boy in his place…..
The diabolical look triple h has in the mirror is the McMahon diabolical look
JBL and HHH were both great Heels when I was a child. That’s why WM21 is my favorite sicken both lost to Cena and Batista. Both starts to great baby face runs from beating the big bad heel
best heels ever, i can really admire their work now but back then they were a pain in my ass. loved edge tho him & bald randy were badass to the bone
Modern heels are mild in WWE. An example of a top heel is Rhea Ripley who get's cheered, with internet fans asking "why can't we cheer who we like". Many modern fans don't respect the concept of playing along and boo'ing the heels and many modern wrestlers secretly enjoying being cheered as a heel and seem afraid to get real heat. There are of course some exceptions but you can't beat old school heels - nothing more satisfying than seeing a top heel and top babyface go at it. This can only be achieved if the crowd play along and accept the scripted dynamic and scenario (they often don't).
Because Rhea is cosplaying Chyna a nostalgic act so fans gonna cheer
Do a part 2
Triple H one of the most versatile stars ever. Best Heel and an amazing Face With DX specifically. My personal favourite version of him
Man CM Punk singing happy birthday to Rey Mysterio's daughter, Threatening JR and King, Paul Bearer's ashes Punk was a great heel
JBL was something else as a heel, his acts was batshit crazy especially going for the mexican borders, that was insane tv work😂
I always loved heels provoking attempted murder on babyfaces 😂😂
The fact Batista could become a top babyface after being apart of Evolution isn’t appreciated enough
It was the last era where the roster filled with great talker
WWE needs more "hideous human beings, uncaring, could give a damn about anybody" types heels as good ol JR once described Kane lol. No WWE heel today is really evil or despicable like Triple H, Edge, Randy Orton, JBL, or even "Gangsta Lean" Eddie Guerero was during the 2000s.
That's why a guy like MJF is so popular today - he's got that old school vibe.
mjf sucks
I'm a heel guy for the most part and HHH is one of my absolute all time favorites. He's second to only Macho Man and one above Mr Perfect. Mach in his prime vs HHH in his prime= Dream Match. Both are excellent in the ring bell to bell. Heels that back up their words are the best heels
Durag vince is top tier gimmick. He needed prison mike as tag team. From the office
Let’s Go
