With WWE's biggest show of the year now officially being behind us, we can look ahead to what's next, and what could be next is a handful of heel turns that could take place at some point in the coming weeks.

WrestleMania 35 totally delivered in terms of giving the fans what they wanted, as both Kofi Kingston and Becky Lynch were able to win their respective matches, thus leaving the event as the top superstar in their divisions.

But, WWE needs to create new challengers for almost every one of their titles, and one of the best ways to do so is by having someone turn heel, especially if the heel turn comes on the post-WrestleMania installment of either Monday Night Raw or SmackDown.

Vince McMahon typically likes to do something newsworthy coming out of his company's biggest show of the year, so here are a few big time heel turns that could happen at some point in the near future.


#5 and #4 Bayley & Sasha Banks

The first ever WWE Women's Tag Team Champions, Bayley and Sasha Banks, were not able to successfully defend their titles at WrestleMania 35, as Peyton Royce and Billie Kay walked out of the event as the new top team in the women's division.

While Bayley and Sasha are a pretty good babyface team, they would probably be more effective as a heel unit. Since being called up to the main roster, WWE hasn't done the best job with either of the two women as babyfaces, and some would argue that it's long past time for the company to turn the duo heel.

The only reason to not turn the team heel is if they're going to get an immediate rematch for the titles they lost on Sunday night, but if they end up losing the rematch, then we could see the team breakup via a Sasha Banks or a Bayley heel turn after the loss.

#3 The Miz

While WWE ended up turning The Miz babyface for his program with Shane McMahon, the reality is that the fans just don't want to see the character as one of the company's top good guys.

On top of that, it's probably pretty safe to assume that his feud with Shane McMahon is now over, simply because Shane probably won't be wrestling again until the next major WWE pay-per-view, which will be SummerSlam.

So there's really no need for The Miz to be a babyface at the moment, as fans would likely cheer whichever heel he ends up in the ring with coming out of WrestleMania 35.

On top of that, we've seen over all the many years that The Miz is just better suited to be a heel, as he's one of the few performers on the WWE roster who can actually get heat from the fans.

#2 Finn Balor

New WWE Intercontinental Champion Finn Balor has been vastly underutilized throughout most of his tenure on the main roster. On top of that, he hasn't been a heel ever since he left the Japanese wrestling scene for NXT. So, he's probably due for a heel turn at some point in the near future, possibly during tonight's episode of Raw.

If you've seen Balor's work in Japan, then you'll know that he's probably better suited for a heel role. Also, it's quite clear that Vince McMahon just doesn't believe that the new IC Champ can be one of the company's signature heroes, but he might have no problem with him being a top antagonist.

A Finn Balor heel turn would bring about a ton of fresh new matches, and it could help rejuvenate the former Universal Champion on the main roster, as he's been stuck in the mid card for the majority of his run since being called up from NXT.

#1 Big E

The New Day has been a unit for quite a while, so you could make the argument that it's probably the correct time to split them up.

As for who will be the one to turn, well, that's an easy one, as a Big E heel turn would probably have the biggest impact. Sure, this move might leave Xavier Woods in limbo, but it'll also give him the opportunity to get over on his own, which he is most certainly capable of.

Of course, at this point, it would be ludicrous to turn Kofi Kingston, as he has the chance to be one of the most popular WWE Champions that the company has had in quite some time. Also, Big E would get a ton of heat if he does end up turning against his longtime partner out of jealousy.

A Big E heel turn is something that no one would see coming, especially coming off of Kofi Kingston's big feel good moment at WrestleMania 35.
