10 WWE Superstars That Turned Heel/Face The Most
4. CM Punk
'The Voice Of The Voiceless' tried in vain to add a bit of pro wrestling villainy to his 'Pipe Bomb' promo in 2011, but the die was already cast for him as soon as he began ticking terms off the banned list in screen-melting fashion.
Punk's attempts to get over and stay there in WWE were as noble as they were bleakly depressing. His try-hard babyface stint had ran its course long before he finally turned on Jeff Hardy in 2009, but the peak of his heel powers weren't really exploited until a listless de-push resulted in him embodying a near-the-knuckle zealot character guiding the careers of followers in his 'Straight Edge Society'.
The babyface turn proper came after a quasi-turn as leader of The Nexus in a last-ditch effort to make that stable mean something. Despite WWE's 'Summer Of Punk' collapsing within itself, 'The Straight Edge Superstar's rigid efforts to make it work ensured he remained over as both a hero and villain as he embarked upon a legendary 434-day reign with the Championship.
He turned once more before his controversial 2014 exit but many fans considered him the biggest babyface of all for actually walking away - few performers had his deft touch for character work in such an ever-changing universe, or the pride to leave it all behind.
