9 WWE Stars Who Were Turned By The Fans

9. Eddie Guerrero

Los Guerreros were such an awesome, utterly convincing heel team in mid-late 2002. I mean, they just beat the hell out of people with their vicious, no-nonsense style. Indeed, Eddie and Chavo did away with their high-flying and focused on just being as calculated and brutal as possible. And it worked like a charm.

In early 2003, however, the then-Tag Team Champions were going through a character change. Repackaged as a couple of lying, cheating and stealing schemesters, they were turned face thanks to some comical vignettes coupled with inventive match finishes.

Then Chavo injured his bicep in May and Eddie was being prepped for a run as an upper-level heel. He turned on substitute tag partner Tajiri by blasting the Japanese star through the windshield of his lowrider. That's a pretty reprehensible thing to do to a person, in anyone's book, but the cheers just wouldn't go away.

Eddie was just too talented, too charismatic and too damn clever to boo. The upshot was that the fans turned him right back to being a babyface just a few short weeks after he had seemingly turned to the darkside. Eddie and WWE, realising that it was better to listen to the audience, decided to go with it and he became one of Smackdown's most popular performances.

It carried him all the way to the WWE Title at No Way Out in February 2004, and Eddie would primarily wrestle as a fun-loving babyface until his death in November 2005 (save for his heel turn and feud with Rey in Spring/Summer of that year).
