A lot of WWE Superstars from the past and the present will agree that being a heel gives them more leeway to be creative with their character. In WWE's PG era, heels probably are restricted in the kind of things that they could say on the mic, but they still have some flexibility in tweaking their promos and their character.

WWE's programming has been rather underwhelming and has had a serious dip in ratings and viewership. There needs to be a massive change in storylines and feuds in WWE, and this could maybe start with some heels turning into babyfaces before SummerSlam, which happens on August 11th, 2019.
Here are 5 heels who should turn babyface before SummerSlam 2019
#5. Drew McIntyre
Since being called up to the main roster from NXT in 2018, Drew McIntyre has mainly been just a heel. McIntyre who rejoined WWE in 2017 was put in NXT and he went on to win the NXT Championship.
The Scottish Psychopath, though, was a babyface in NXT, but on the main roster on RAW, he has only been a heel. He has primarily been part of a heel faction consisting of Baron Corbin and Bobby Lashley, and has now joined forces with Shane McMahon.
McIntyre is widely regarded to be a future WWE Champion and that could possibly happen if he turns babyface. While his heel run has been good so far, he could take his character to the next level with a face run, and maybe set up some interesting feuds, including with his current heel mates, Bobby Lashley and Baron Corbin.
#4. Sonya Deville
It seems that Sonya Deville has a lot more to offer than what she has done so far. She has been partners with Mandy Rose since both of them debuted on the main roster, but it seems that she has fallen below Rose in the pecking order, despite being a better wrestler.
WWE have teased a heel turn between the two, and it is quite likely that Rose will turn heel and a feud between the two could be quite interesting.
#3. Cesaro
One of the big misfortunes recently on WWE has been the breakup of The Bar, the team of Sheamus and Cesaro, which has reportedly been due to Sheamus' long-term injury.
Cesaro has since moved over to RAW and he has been in a feud with Ricochet as he has transitioned to a singles career once again. Cesaro has mainly won tag team titles apart from winning the United States title once but hasn't had much of a singles run.
A phenomenal worker, Cesaro has been in a feud with Ricochet lately, which has been some of the best wrestling on WWE television. Many fans want to see Cesaro have the kind of run that Kofi Kingston had in the build-up to his match at WrestleMania 35 and his eventual WWE Championship win.
Cesaro could possibly only have that kind of run if he turns face, which is something that WWE should do soon.
#2. Shinsuke Nakamura
Shinsuke Nakamura's WWE career has been on a downhill trajectory over the last few months, and the former WWE Champion's decline can be traced back to that dream match against AJ Styles at WrestleMania 34, where the Japanese Superstar turned heel.
He has since then been involved in the WWE Championship and United States title feuds, but hasn't done much to take his character to the next level.
When he was called up to the main roster, many fans expected him to be a future WWE Champion, but that hasn't happened yet; in fact, he has become a mid-card afterthought and has been teaming with another Superstar who has been used ineffectively, Rusev.
Nakamura should go back to being a babyface as the fans loved his gimmick. There could also be some interesting feuds with the likes of Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn, and Elias, to name a few, if he does turn babyface.
#1. Daniel Bryan
Daniel Bryan has been a great heel, and his current heel run has been his very first one since returning from retirement. Bryan became WWE Champion after defeating AJ Styles, and then went on to have that fantastic feud with Kofi Kingston.
In a lot of ways, Kofi Kingston's dream run to WrestleMania 35 would not have happened if it had been for a heel Daniel Bryan and his new gimmick. He was incredible as 'The New Daniel Bryan', and he has sinc e gone on to win the SmackDown tag team titles.
But Bryan should be back in the singles scene, which is where he thrives in. Most WWE fans want to see a feud between Bryan and Seth Rollins, but that may not happen anytime soon because both Superstars are on different brands (yes, the Wildcard rule could come into play, but not every week) and Rollins is currently in a feud with Baron Corbin and later most likely with Brock Lesnar.
Bryan has been a fantastic heel over the years, and the underdog story that he has showcased previously, could be revived once again when he turns face.
