In today's wrestling world, the role of the heel has changed. Fans understand wrestling is all a work and they appreciate talent, regardless of whether it comes from good guys or bad guys. That - combined with the fact that wrestlers in both WWE and on the indies count merchandise as a main source of revenue - means that heels don't mind getting on the audience's good side.

The Revival - Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder - are among the few heels in today's wrestling world who don't seem to be looking for any sort of affection from the fans. They're comfortable not being flashy, and embrace the completely erroneous perception that they're boring or forgettable.

In reality, they're one of the most solid acts in the company. Dash and Dawson are the best heel tag team in the world, putting on the sorts of matches that get their babyface opponents over. They divide the ring in a way that feels so dramatic, and they bully good guys ruthlessly.

The Revival are the perfect heel tag team - they're so good, people often don't realize how good they are.
