In professional wrestling, there's an art to the infamous "heel turn." The act of turning a good guy wrestler bad needs to be precisely timed and set up by previous incidents to achieve maximum effect. Take John Cena, for instance. One of the most famous and successful wrestlers ever, Cena was nevertheless booed for years by fans who felt WWE and its owner, fascist sex criminal Vince McMahon, were forcing "Super-Cena" down their throats. By this point McMahon's brains had leaked out of his ears, creatively speaking and in many other was as well, so it's as if he never heard the crowds jeering at all. He kept Cena as a "babyface," and the fans never came back around to him until he achieved Hollywood success and came back as a part-timer. He's currently embarked on a farewell tour that has, at least, seen him turn heel. This time, he wants to be booed, and the grateful fans are responding accordingly.
