Somebody should make a diagram or chart or something similarly nerdy how many times over the years a face was 100% justified in turning on a friend in WWE. WWE seems to be really bad at establishing empathy for the guy being turned on.

Every single time someone turned on Hogan it was 100% deserved.

Every once in a while I remember that r-truth headlined a PPV against John Cena and I laugh and laugh.

I was at that show. Besides that match, it was also the night that Barrett dropped a belt to Big Zeke off a torture rack.

Pretty sure it was Punk's first PPV win in like a freaking year, so at least it had that going for it.

R Truth's heel run was amazing and hilarious so of course they turned him face and rendered him a nobody again as soon as possible. Beating up people with water bottles, insulting all the dumbass little Jimmies in the crowd, coming out in a colonel outfit, it all ruled. His promo about MITB is legendary. He has acro AND arachnophobia!
Even better, it was a CONFEDERATE uniform (but somehow he was wearing the hat of a Union soldier)

its still a 1 v 1 at a house show and the majority of early major title changes happened at house shows because thats just how it is big shows were for big cities but small town title changes still held weight

I find it odd that they strip the champion of the title if he doesn't defend over the course of a year. The old days used to have a 30 day mandatory title defense clause, you'd think they'd stick to that.

that would require WWE to do something other than panic-write each episode a day before taping.
