Styles has been an incredible heel, I love almost all his promos. Miz is also up there.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Screw it. I am saying Joe, because Monster Joe is amazing.

AJ is obviously a great choice, and so is KO who does the little heel things better than anyone.

 

[M.C.G. 31]

Honestly surprised anyone other than The Miz is getting votes. No one generates real heat like The Miz while also making his opponent look strong as ****.

If you need a babyface to get over, you pair him with The Miz and it works all the time if it's not a throwaway one PPV match (*coughApollocough*). Miz is the reason people thought Alex Riley could be anything at all and he single-handedly made Dolph Ziggler relevant again in 2016.

 

[offkilter]

No Roman?

 

[SeidoN]

Joe. pretty easy choice for me

 

[Natey]

Miz and AJ are tied. Went with Miz since I picked AJ in most other categories.

This. Miz doesn't try to be a "cool" heel like the others.

 

[Jonesey]

Damn near a 3 way tie for me, but I went with the Miz, because he's... AWESOME.

 

[Big Poppa Puck]

Roman Reigns

 

[Kimi]

Voted Styles, as he's just had an amazing year.

But second would have to be the Revival for having an almost as good year, not sure why they were skipped on the list as they're miles ahead of everyone else.

Monster Joe and Owens would be a small gap behind them.

 

[SnS]

Theres been multiple occasions where I want to deck The Miz.


So. Therefore. The Miz.

 

[CreamOfTheCrop]

Ric Flair's daughter.

 

[Acallabeth]

Miz, then Charlotte.

 

[Disclose]

this is for the miz only.

 

[GKJ]

Depends where you put heel. Are you the heel of the year because you were the most entertaining, or because you got enough legitimate heat?

I tend to side with the latter, which is why I went with The Miz, with Charlotte a close second. Owens had a good year, yeah, but to me he's terrible at actually being a heel.

 

[These Are The Days]

I don't understand how Roman doesn't win this hands down. I've never seen a wrestler so genuinely and universally disliked as him. Peak Super Cena didn't get it this bad. Miz on the other hand is an incredible talent who is wasted on the gimmick of being unbearably annoying and cheating every match. It's cheap heat like Spirit Squad.

 

[TNT87]

Kevin Owens. I want to see his ass get kicked everytime. He's a terrific heel.

It's the purest form of heat there is. That's what heels do.

Kevin Owens has cheated just as much, if not more during his title reign. The difference is that The Miz is so good on the mic and in his role that he makes people legitimately want to see him get beat up and gets guys over who otherwise wouldn't be over. No other heel has done that this year.

 

[Disclose]

everything owens says during his matches is gold. but one can barely hear him.
its close, i prefer owens as a whole. but miz has been on fire with his promos, including killing daniel bryan on talking smack.

KO does everything you're supposed to as a heel, as a lot of heels do do, but I think you're right in regard to Miz and Charlotte generating the most heat.

 

[Cor]

Accidentally voted other.

Meant The Miz

 

[Virtanen18]

KO does everything you're supposed to as a heel, as a lot of heels do do, but I think you're right in regard to Miz and Charlotte generating the most heat.

I thought KO was a better heel in NXT, as the prizefighter. Now I see him more as a babyface outside of the ring really. Probably cause of the best friendship mostly.

 

[Fish on The Sand]

I am pleasantly surprised to see Miz leading this. I actually voted Owens just because Miz' heel run has really only been on top for about half the year whereas Owens has been at it the whole year.
