Liam O'Rourke Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 So, as we had to postpone the Trial Of Eric Bischoff show due to scheduling conflicts, this week we decided to dive in to WWE.Com's Top 50 Heels in Wrestling History list that they put out a while ago, since it caught my eye as an interesting topic of discussion. So for those interested in rudo discussion, below is the link as we talk about the rankings, who should be higher or lower, who shouldn't be on at all, and some of the names that were inexplicably left off. A really fun show, check it out and let me know what you think.http://squaredcirclegazette.podbean.com/mf/play/zh9mjs/SCGRadio18-WWEComsTop50HeelsOfAllTime.mp3And as a general discussion point, here was the list itself:50.

Awards Moderator Onyx2 Posted November 4, 2014 Awards Moderator Share Posted November 4, 2014 As a child I bloody detested Earthquake for sitting on Hulk and *gasp* putting him out of action. Couldn't believe what I was watching. Â And just for something a little left of centre, how much of a heat magnet was Brother Love? Hated his scarlet fizzog at the time.

neil is brill Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 A top 50 featuring more than 50 people. Did Booker T make this list? Â As a kid I couldn't stand Harvey Whippleman, whenever he told Fink to show him some respect when announcing him or he'd knock him out, I used to call bullshit on that because even 9 year old neil is brill could beat "Wimpleman" up.

Snitsky's back acne Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Nice to see Sherri in there - she was fucking brilliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSF Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Moolah should probably break the top ten. HHH shouldn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted November 4, 2014 Moderators Share Posted November 4, 2014 It's an interesting point to think about who is eligible for this list because for me heel Rock is one of my favourites, but as he's always face these days you'd never see him anywhere near the list..

Paid Members FLips Posted November 4, 2014 Paid Members Share Posted November 4, 2014 Moolah should probably break the top ten. HHH shouldn't. I think he should for his 2003 run alone. He buried everyone he could and in hindsight it was hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Pitcos Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Triple H should be number one, especially on a WWE list. Besides Vince, HHH is the only one that's ever really been a proper top heel there. Nobody comes close to his 1999-2001 run for quality, or his 2002-2004 Upsetter of Virgins stint for top baddiness. Throw the Authority era on top as well, and he's the king. Â If it was my list, I'd get rid of all the old-timers from before my era like Kowalski and Gorgeous George, but Joey Styles is older than me and probably appreciates history more (and has to pay lip service to company dogma).

Vamp Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 I'd possibly have Bischoff higher on my list but it's about the list you'd expect. I'm also a bit surprise that the nwo don't seem to feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vamp Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Yeah but they have Flair and the horsemen together, seems a bit off to have Hogan without Nash and Hall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vamp Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 That was my basis for suggesting them really, although cool heels have been irritating since then, Nash, Hall and Hogan are pretty much the three I think of when someone uses that phrase. Just seems they're deserving of some placing on there, even if it is just whacked in as an accessory to Hogan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane O' Mac Version 2 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 It's an interesting point to think about who is eligible for this list because for me heel Rock is one of my favourites, but as he's always face these days you'd never see him anywhere near the list.. Â Do you mean Corporation Rock or Hollywood Rock? Hollywood Rock is probably one of my all time favourites, but crazily that was about a 2 month run. Â Rock in that early 2003 period was definitely a "cool heel", but I feel watching it back that he was tapping into some real life anger in how the fans turned on him.

Paid Members Linus Posted November 5, 2014 Paid Members Share Posted November 5, 2014 Did I miss Shawn Michaels being on there? If so, weird omission. Heartbreak Kid era, Montreal and DX-era should cement a top 10, surely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
