The lesson is: don't make the talent a babyface. Let the babyface come to the talent
Lmao
Learn the babyface, feel the babyface, become the babyface - some Sensei
basically let a guy be heel so he has a personality and then just turn him face. boom ez profit.
Honestly very tho! Most of the guys that he mentioned (Seth Rollins, Sami Zayn, Chad Gable, LA knight, Jey uso) were all heels when Papa H took over a year back and now they're the most over babyfaces!! it's finally cool to support the good guys now and they're not corny or cringe...
Its crazy how perfect Cody Rhodes fits into WWE currently
And people think Punk wouldn't fit in just because he got booed by Elite Fanboys in AEW. If he can overcome his attitude problems, i don't see a problem with the guy being here.
@@kjkbaybayattitude problems, which he'll never overcome.
@@aromega10Way more people would hold him accountable and keep him in check in WWE’s management before their locker room though.
Why ?
I mean Cody's great at everything
@@a.fields9789 exactly
LA Knight has got to be greatest turnaround in history. The guy was humiliated, put is a goofy feud, has had few credible opponents and he is still getting insane reactions.
WWE right now is LIGHT YEARS better than what it was back 3, 4, 5, 6 years ago.
True.
ntm on 2017
I started watching wwe in 2015 and i agree
I've been watching my whole life, born in 06, and this is the most invested I've ever been. They're really doing a great job. People used to say we just wanted a reason to hate but modern WWE is proof that we had very good reasons to hate back then and we that we just wanted WWE to be great again. I just hope vince and endeavor stay hands off for the most part
Imagine if people like Zack Ryder or Damien Sandow would wrestle in this era
Ironically another reason babyfaces are so popular is because of Roman. The Tribal Chief is the ultimate heel character that makes you cheer for his opponent in the hope that they can dethrone him; Drew, Sami, KO, Cody, Jey.
Roman couldn't be the babyface WWE wanted, so he became the heel WWE needs to make credible babyfaces. Respect👏👏
Ngl, Gunther vs Chad Gable kinda reminds me of Roman vs Cody but for the IC championship, Gunther being the sadistic heel and Chad Gable being the beloved face, Not to mention their previous match on RAW perfectly resembles the match Cody and Roman had at WrestleMania.
Gunther Said fuck them kids😂😂
I wouldn’t say that Gunther is sadistic
At least gunther wins fair and square lmao
I want to agree with you but how did it resembled? No one got involved on behalf of Gunther to help him win the match or any Ref bumps didn't happened
@@mehr7ad Imperium attacked Alpha Academy before their first two matches started, lol. And Kaiser started arguing with the ref as a distraction in their second match. They're still cheating scumbags, lol.
i think the thing that helped this whole thing happen was the pandemic itself. people had to stop attending to wrestling shows for over a year, so when everything went back to normal, people slowly started to appreciate it more and more. because they felt on their own skin that in any given moment it can be taken away from them. and not being able to participate in the event is even worse than being there and not liking it. and also Triple H taking over the creative and letting wrestlers be who they want to be helps them get over naturally. WWE stopped cutting wrestlers short when they get over. they don't focus on a single top guy anymore, they want (and need) to build new stars for years to come, so they HAVE TO let them do their thing and become the best version of themselves. all of it combined with a spirit of competition with AEW makes this era probably the best one since the 90s. it's a great time to be a wrestling fan!
i def agree w you. the crowds have gotten better and i've started to notice that a lot of them bring signs to shows again. pandemic era and summer 2022 literally saved the wwe
Fr man fr
Attitude Era and Ruthless Agression babyfaces were bad asses.
wrestling is better now than ever
@ChrisJerichogoat wrestling now is great, but there is always need for improvement .
@@stsolomon618 true but you have to admit in those eras people only cared about the main event
@@MAriomcmahon1I disagreed till you clarified in your second comment. You might actually be right. The only other era that cokes close is ruthless aggression but like you said, no one cared about the mid card back then. Now the whole show is good besides the constant video packages and even then, I do enjoy video packages before PPV matches
😂 it's the worst
LA Knight got himself over by losing every week, battling with Hit Row every week, and half the time being the dark segment…i don’t want people to say he is like the rock or stone cold cause those two were pushed, LA Knight was literally being pushed down every week
They actually gave this man absolutely nothing to work with. ‼️‼️
LA can't be contained
Rock was pushed hard, Austin was not, Austin was given a bad gimmick od the ring master, they did not let him speak and gave him Ted DiBease to be his mouth piece. It wasnt until Ted left, they let him speak because they stopped caring and they wemt with Austin after Triple H took part of the curtain collar and lost his spot. Steve Austin is the beat comparison for Knight because both where saddles with bad gimmicks where they didnt talk, and because of circumstances unrelated to him had been gicen a chance to speak and get pushed
@@TimeBomb014X True. Both guys were initially given a gimmick that they're not really comfortable with, and then soon after they were given another chance to sort of rebrand themselves into something that reflected their personalities more -- new personas that they're more comfortable with... And from that they started to rise and become fan favorites. The only difference is, at least Austin has his signature "rebel employee vs evil boss" storyline... LA at the moment has none. So imagine if he's also given that same level of storyline where he would be able to make himself shine more, then imagine how much bigger of a superstar LA would become.
@@terrorazeing none of the current talent would of reached rock levels except maybe sasha banks. also most of the guys they held back like ryder were already old and still being held back for no reason.
We are in the peak of our genereation, guys, let's appreciate it while it's going! This is the golden era we're going to miss in somewhere down the line.
I agree

Facts
LA Knight with a title win would be a crowd pop for the ages. Must see TV. MAKE IT HAPPEN HUNTER‼️
LA Knight got me back into professional wrestling, since a month before money in the bank I knew that guy had something wwe missed for a while, so glad to see him slowly climb up the ladder lately
Not only babyface but heels are amazing too, every gimmick feels legit in the HHH era
I think the heels are so good in todays era that when you have a good baby face involved in the storyline it makes you cheer. Gunther is so Dominant that the rivalry with Gable made Gable look like a believable baby face to beat Gunther it seemed like Daniel Bryan type babyface where a smaller guy who knows how to wrestle can possibly beat the unbeatable force. Now Cody just got it, it’s like a modern Golden Era type babyface from his gear to his promos and his entrance he just someone you can’t help but cheer! Cody may have failed in AEW he’s the reason behind their success but it’s like his gimmick was made for a WWE babyface. And LA Knight is just like a modern Rock/Austin hybrid but with his own unique style and even if he seems similar to The Rock he still seems unique in his own way, he’s got IT
If they keep going in this direction, we could have a year 2000 caliber roster in the next couple of years
LA knight is probably the most over babyface since Stone cold or Daniel Bryan.
no its cena
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
I'd probably say Daniel Bryan tbh, even tho he's even more popular imo
Y’all will say anything 😭
since Daniel Bryan
La knight deserves a world title
Maybe not now
It champion in few months
YEAAAAAAAH
In the near future
They are teasing a feud with his interaction with Paul Heyman.
WWE stuck with only one top guy and bunch of mid cards. That's the problem. Back during attitude era, even the mid cards felt like top guys
They don't want another rock who is bigger than WWE and leaves for Hollywood's for more money that's why they didn't push anyone except the one they like.
@@hiddendagger7291 Those guys left for Hollywood when they were pushing 40, lol. Rock first left when he was 30 years old, in the middle of his prime. You're lost a generational talent with at least a decade at the top still left in him, of course WWE isn't gonna risk that again. That's why they didn't have an issue with Cena or Batista, because they left WWE when they were 40+ and already had spent a decade at the top of the card. Rock was a top guy for like 5 years, in comparison.
one reason this theory dont make sense is if reigns leaves for hollywood they have no stars.. surely you built a bunch of stars so if rock (roman) leaves you still have stone cold etc to takeover? @@raulojeda8567
I think I like the current WWE even more than in 2016, and that was a very good year imo
Seth needed to stay off of twitter.
Not every instance of fans turning on a face happens for no reason
His promos in 2019 were very corny as well
it was mostly cause him and becky seemed like super cena couple which fans hate and still do. anything corporate that vince is pushing feels cheap fake etc. that roman bianca belair feel. seths new character doesnt feel like the company guy.
Roman pinning Cody at WM was so beautiful!!!!🔥
Indeed it was!
Love the new editing style my dude. Keep it up Great One
I remember the time when everyone thought wwe would die in next 5 years
Tbh i stopped watching it in 2020-2022 bcs of their booking
@@thatsbetterYeah, you were on crack, lmao. Summerslam 2022 is where this generational run started-coincidentally, just a month after Vince stepped down.
@@thatsbetterlmao 2020-2022 was some of the best years of WWE
@@greatnessdelton1381 yeah, i started watching it there, after SS
@@Xtsy_1989 nope, i can agree with 2022-2023 but 2020-2022 was sh1t
We have heels being booed and hated, and babyfaces being cheered and rooted for. The roles are finally how they are supposed to be.
Chad's push is so exciting right now.
Don't forget the fractions, its not just random all of them has got a great story behind, if Bloodline was still active, I'd love a match between them and hurt Business or Judgement day at survivor series.
One of the things that makes a great baby face is emotion. So many WWE baby faces were emotionless. They always just shrug off trouble and smile. It’s why Daniel Bryan worked so well. When heels would mess with him he’d get pissed off and wouldn’t just take it.
The Undertaker was also known as "The Big Dog" at some point in his career... guess WWE tried to pick up from there but they just couldn't understand it's not 2002 anymore
I'm so glad chad gable is actually doing something now. He's so talented
I like how after a couple hours on my phone and I go on to CZcams and see oh he made ANOTHER video lol love u😂
The road to Wrestlemania this year got me back to watching wwe full time again and I'm still watching
Don't forget Sami Zayn in the babyfaces in the thumbnail
WWE is easily the best now that it's been since the early 2000s. There's obviously been bright periods in the intervening years, but I'm just as interested in new WWE shows as I was back when they had two shows that were literally distilled from the top talent of three companies.
Definitely not lol mid 2000s was way better
@@topdawg2916 There were a few wrestlers then that I think are some of the highest tier GOAT contenders like Kurt Angle, Y2J, and HBK, but as an overall show I'd put current WWE at least on the same level as ~2003-~2006.
@@KAPTAINmORGANnWo4eva wwe 2003 to 2006 on both shows was way better creative wise story wise plus the roster was the best it’s been during that time especially in 2003
@@topdawg2916 The highlights of that period were the Brock-Angle rivalry, Jeff Hardy and Booker T's brief pushes (that didn't end satisfyingly), JBL and his cabinet, Eddie and Benoit's then later Cena and Batista's rises to the top, Legend Killer Orton, and ECW One Night Stand.
Really strong highlights but I would definitely say a few current stories are as entertaining if not more than those, and the in-ring stuff is definitely on average better. A good way to compare them is that a guy who's genuinely comparable to Kurt Angle, Chad Gable, is _not_ the far and away best wrestler on the roster. There's like 15 guys as good as if not better than him, and that's not a knock against Gable but a point on how stacked the roster currently is.
GreatOne I think you should also make a video on WWE finally having good factions the judgment day, the bloodline, imperum etc. Back in like 2010-2011 we only had Nexus
Not only cody's promos are relatable,his theme song as well
Wwe has been looking for this level and number of top guys since the beginning of the 2010’s when they were trying with people like sheamus, kofi, wade barret, McIntyre, Swagger, and many others. After like 12-13 years they’ve finally got it
Ngl chad gable vs Brock Lesnar would go super hard
If Brock is on board he will sell like a million dollars. If the guy believes in you he really goes into bat for you. If he doesn't... yikes.
Can we Appreciate how many videos TheGreatOne has been releasing in the last few days 🙏🏼💯
Triple H is definitely the reason
FAXX
Let’s go another great one upload
In the grand scheme of things, babyfaces are more important than the heels, and now that WWE is actually acting like that again, they are much more fun to watch.
WWE has so many legit potential world champions including Cody Rhodes, Jey Uso, Sami Zayn, Kevin Owens, and LA Knight. I can't remember a time when it was like this since the late 2000s.
Get this trending, we need a Cena vs Punk at the next WrestleMania!
LA Knight deserves that mega push, YEAH!!!!
It started with Austin. Not cm punk. I know cause I was there lol. But cm punk was def a reinforcement of this. People like anti hero’s, like vegeta or venom.
Cody Rhodes, LA Knight, Seth Rollins and Dominic Mysterio has the hottest crowd at the moment.
Whati realize
I could be wrong because I just started watching wrestling again in 2022.
If they start off as heels they make better babyfaces. And if they are babyfaces they are going to be better heels
After 2015, I think I can finally say for the first time, It's a good time to be a wrestling fan
"Hustle Loyalty Respect Crap"
- The Great One
Is it just me or does
Chad Gable VS Gunther
reminds me of
Kurt Angle VS Brock Lesnar
Legitimately have multiple top stars and interesting stuff happening in the midcard … crazy how things played out after 2020 lol
Kurt Angle should endorse Chad Gable
1:45 and it almost feel like he is talking out of his as-- heart.. He is talking out of his heart. Lmao
I TOTALLY AGREE!
ULTIMATE HEEL DOMINIC
The reason why the baby faces are likeable is cuz they're real and relatable. No Hulkamania or Hustle Loyalty Respect, not shitting on these gimmicks they fit them well but doesn't fit everyone. They were forcing baby face characters on us but not anymore.
Oh man I’d love to see you do a heel video! 🧡
We got Roman, Gunther, Judgment Day, Grayson Waller 😘 & more!
Interesting topic. I had realized how stacked the rosters are recently but I didn't realize how many baby faces there was
0:00 I see now. Thank you
1:00 1:14 1:37 5:52 6:47 7:19
Haven’t enjoyed wrestling this much since 2005. I dropped out in 07 for 15 years until I heard vince left, decided to check it and I’ve been enjoying it since
Fun fact : Cody Rhodes outsold John Cena in merch sales at Payback, LA Knight was 3rd by a minor difference. Its crazy to think that there are current superstars as over as John freaking Cena.
The great one is the only that says “remember to like and subscribe” and i react. Good sh!t ✊🏿
1:47 already had me crying 😂
Becky Lynch is another example. She turned heel, but eventually had to turn face again. Oddly enough, Charlotte Flair seems to work as a babyface now against Damage Ctrl and it might work against a heel Bianca Belair too if she does turn. In Damage Ctrl, either Iyo Sky or Bailey will turn face before WrestleMania and whoever it is will get mega over when it happens. I think there's a very new trend amongst wrestling fans, cheering for the good guys and booing the bad guys. What a revolutionary concept!
I think Most people hated seth back in 2019 because of his twitter
I’ve always loved the USOs since I was young I took a break from wrestling from like 2017-2020 I came back because of Jey Vs Roman by god that was the best one of the best decisions I’ve made because the bloodline story line has to be one of my favourite things from the WWE in a very long time
We also need to remember that chad gable overcame the whole shorty g shit
I always thought Cody Rhodes cannot be Babyface long enough and everyone will get bored and turn on him, but his run has been amazing so far. I hope he does something with Randy Orton and Million Dollar Man for good ol nostalgia.
0:37 funniest part
Wrestling revival since the Attitude Era
After the chad gable promo Last night his feud with gunther reminds me of miz and zigler in 2017
Now we can Say : Thanks you triple H.
Because if it was for Vince well.... Maybe LA KNIGHT would be fired, Chad Gable will be a jobber, Jey Uso will go after another tag team title run with Jimmy, the LWO won't probably happen because Rey will still teaming up with his son, Sami Zayn will have another random feud and Kevin Owens maybe will have another heel turn 😂
I agree. This is prob the most fun I've had watching WWE in years.
Real OG's remember the first Big Dog was Big Evil.
If you were a Wrestler! Would you want to be a BabyFace or Heel? What would be your gimmick? What would be your wrestling style? What would be your catchphrase?
monkey
Need some time to think on that one
On one hand, I'd like the idea of being that hero, inspirational character people want to get behind and kids can look up to. But on the other hands, it's too fun to play the villain role, especially since you can let loose a little more
I don't know. I guess I'd be a face The kind that's aloof and standoffish, clearly not there to make friends, but will help you when needed and stands for what's right. My style would be calculated striker with fast-paced style. And my catch phrase would be, "That's all it takes."
I would definitely be a combination of shawn michaels and cm punk. Outspoken and outrageous but also a flamboyant showman, I would probably start off as a heel we'll see where it goes 🤷🏿♂️
Heel, gimmick: cool black suit dude, style: tehnician/striker, Goodbye phrase: see yaaa bi**es, Hello phrase: your papa is hereee and i am going to tell you a story
Jason jordan comment was cheap. Guys career ended because of injury. He worked as backstage guy but idk if he still does.
He's their best producer
true but the whole kurts son storyline would of ruined him imo.
@bigjohncena6986 he was segments with stars such as rollins and reigns. This does not mean everything, but he was in the ring with top stars and would have a match with Kurt in wrestlemania instead of korbin.
LA knight yeahhh ❤
🗣️Yeah❗
@@Medazis LA JOBBER YEAHHH
Okay WWE has got IT right now. The problem wasn't WWE it was Vince running literally everything we hated it because it became repetitive. Triple H and the Endeavor writers have it on lock though💯
Man i am so happy i can finally say i am proud to be a wrestling fan
I believe Cody could make a great heel for a simple reason that he bears a striking resemblance to Homelander.
And the heels actually get booed like heels should for example
Dominik, Logan Paul, Jimmy Uso, Waller, Theory etc
When they first said Jason Jordan is Kurt's son, I tought he finally did what he said he will to Booker T's wife
These faces are great we get every type of babyface too.
Cody is kinda like the face who couldn't do anything else
Seth is kinda like Shawn Michaels as a face after his return
LA Knight is kinda like the badass babyface
Cody is like Cena
Seth is like Shawn Michaels like you said
LA Knight is like the Rock / Stone Cold
LA Knight front and center opposite the man he will dethrone at WM40!
The is the new boom of wrestling and I loving what I'm seeing both aew stuff and wwe stuff
I think you underestimate how many people believed in gable. I don’t know a single person who thought Jason was gonna be the successful one. Everyone knew gable could be the next big thing
You don't know anybody, period, lol. You're on crack if you think Jordan didn't have the bigger rocket strapped to his back.
@@greatnessdelton1381 I know a lot of people who have been in the business for decades
We haven’t had this many top face stars probably since the early 2000’s
Talking about faces but what about no. of biggest heels who is making fans so angry and frustrated Roman, Nakamura, Austin theory, bobby, Logan, Gunther, The Miz, and one of the biggest heel Dominic.
U should talk about all the heels in the business
That jumpscare dog 😢
I know nowadays everyone wants to be the cool heel like, but heels like Dominik, Gunther, and Roman are so good at being heels whether if it's you just wanting to see them get dethrone like Gunther and Roman or just want to see them get beat up like Dom it helps the babyfaces. Even though it's good to have a cool heel like Rhea for example, but you see with Raquel it doesn't really help the babyface.
Wtfffff I remember THE AMERICAN ALPHA. Never knew the second member was Chad Gable.
Ahhhhh THANK YOUUUU
Yet there are still always gonna be some baby faces that people are still going to clamor for them to make a heel turn. Like Belair and McIntyre jump out at me immediately.
funny how half of the baby face got their acknowledgement cuz of involvement in the bloodline saga. Roman might not be the baby face but he is THE heel
True
I need a nother kevin owens universal title run again😅
I like how most of thm have something to do with Roman🤣🤣🤣... dude is such a great heel
FACE OF WRESTLING FOR A REASON☝🏻
WWE is at its finest when not listening to the fickle fans .
I agree with you.
