5 heel turns in the WWE that we never saw coming

Oh Sami Zayn...what have you done?

A deal with the devil

Sometimes when I work on lists like these, I end up re-watching some of the older segments in the WWE and I'm absolutely taken by how riveting the characters and the interactions between them were in those days.

The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin are prime examples of that. They just don't make them like that anymore.

Anyway, back to the matter at hand. Stone Cold and the Rock headlined three WrestleManias but it was their babyface vs babyface match for the WWE Championship at WM 17 that had a particularly nasty sting in the tail.

Vince McMahon would appear at ringside and screw the Rock over despite feuding with Stone Cold for a prolonged period in the lead up to that event.

It would mark a heel turn for Stone Cold ( that people nonetheless cheered because he was so darn popular) and also usher in one of the most memorable commentary calls by JR.

Run back the whole match if you've the time (embedded above). Trust me, you won't regret it.
