Who do you like more?

[ColdBloodEnigma]

Generally, do you like faces or heels more?

 

I like heels more...faces are too boring.

[TheCuttingEdge™]

They're equal if done right.

 

But, yeah, I can see how you could see all faces being too boring. Just look at Steve Austin, Chris Jericho, DX, or many, many, others.

[Dynasties]

WWE shows a pretty strong heel bias in my opinion, often attempting to make their heels a lot more interesting and ultimately ignoring the faces of the roster. There is a lot of potential for excitement on the face side of the roster right now, but WWE have really 'played it safe' with their faces recently. Back in the day you had Macho Man, Ultimate Warrior, Hulk Hogan, Ricky Steamboat and many more, you had all of these guys who were faces but they were unique, they were exciting and that is definitely what the WWE needs right now.

 

So, with that being said, the heels right now are more interesting, but the two sides do have the potential to be equal.

[Dazman™]

Back in the Attitude era I preferred the faces but today I would definitely say the heels.

[Muur]

The heels usually have better gimmicks whist faces do the same stuff. It depends who it is tbh, for example, I like R-Truth but I can't stand Cody Rhodes or Alberto Del Rio.

[Rockstar™]

Heels definitely but there are some exceptions like CM Punk, Daniel Bryan, Sin Cara regardless of their face/heel status.

[Bronson]

Faces today, besides the top 2, don't really have any character. They're all "cookie cutter" faces, so to speak.

 

So definitely heels. Most of them actually have something to distinguish them from each other.

[Spyder78]

Heels hands down, but I do like certain faces when they impress me enough lol

[V to I]

The problem with faces is that they're really one dimensional. Unless your a main event face, not many really get to talk very often or develop a character or personality.

 

Take R-Truth as an example. Lately he's been one of the most interesting guys they have, and because he's gotten to talk, to develop this paranoid, crazy character. As a face, all he ever did was rap and dance. No character building, no real opportunities to speak, nothing.

 

Heels are usually the more interesting guys as it is, but faces in WWE can be so generic and devoid of personality, that you almost automatically wanna like the heels more.

[Faster Than Light]

Heels and Tweeners. Faces if they are interesting, flawed, anti-heros, byronic

[JourneyManProject]

Heels. I've always liked them better and booed the good guys. Faces are usually quite boring.

[Thriller]

Depends, I like a lot of superstars as heel, but I prefer a lot of other superstars as a face, then theirs superstars who I don't care what role they play, take Christian, Daniel Bryan and CM Punk for example.

[Petos]

Heels and Tweeners. Faces if they are interesting, flawed, anti-heros, byronic

 

This. Heels are what make wrestling worth watching for me these days. If a face is edgy and rough around the edges rather than a goody two shoes superhero, he can also be the most interesting guy on the roster. But right now that's not the case, so heels, hands down.

[WhiteCobra]

Depends really. I usually like both, if done right. But like many have already stated, alot of the faces in WWE right now are generic and boring while the heels are pretty entertaining. Then of course there are wrestlers that no matter what they are, I still like them, like CM Punk and Christian for example.

[Crowley]

All I really care about is seeing a good match.

 

 

When it comes to characters, it doesn't matter whether they're face or heel. Part of what makes wrestling cool is that you can cheer for whoever you want for whatever reason. Personally, I like realistic characters with a lot of depth. I think guys like John Cena and Randy Orton are some of the most boring characters in television history. They're totally one dimensional. Nothing about them ever changes and we can't really relate to them at all.

 

 

So I prefer the more realistic gimmicks. I think every gimmick should have its own backstory that sets a wrestler apart from everyone else. They should all have different motives and different ways of doing things. So I'm a big fan of guys like CM Punk, Raven, Jon Moxley, Mick Foley, and Muhammad Hassan. I think ECW had the best wrestling gimmicks of all time.

[Generations]

Neither. I like who I like. Sadly, the only person on that list seems to be CM Punk these days.

[D.A.N.]

Heels tend to keep the show interesting and have diverse characters more often, but it really comes down to each specific character.

[Porkchop]

It doesn't really matter to me if they're face or heel, as long as they're interesting.

[Lumpy McRighteous]

Tweeners are my favorites, although I'm a fan of anybody as long as they bring something worthwhile in the ring.

[F.M.]

Heels mostly because they show more character and are more fun to watch.

[Attitude Adjusted]

Recently, the heels just outnumber the faces and a lot of the up coming guys who seem to be the future are heels(Sheamus, Barrett, etc.) Used to like faces more, but recently, I'll say heels. Though I'm fans of a handful of wrestlers of both dispositions.

[Paulie Walnuts]

I prefer heels to faces nowadays. Back in the day though, I was all about the good guys.

[Haas3-16]

I like both, though heels like Truth, Punk, etc are awesome right now.

[.Sy™]

I'd like both equally, but most faces don't have a real character (besides Cena, Orton and Undertaker/Triple H). For example Kane is boring as a face now, while, exactly one year ago, he had so much personality with that Undertaker-Storyline and was the most interesting Superstar from SmackDown!

 

I currently like the Heels more (CM Punk, The Miz, Del Rio, R-Truth, Wade Barrett, etc.).

Back when i was young i liked heels my favs were always Terry Funk, Mr Perfect, Rick Rude, Roddy Piper & Bobby Heenan (in that order) but remembering back to then the only face who i liked was Ricky Steamboat i think i was a evil sadistic kid as i've never really liked many faces back then & always wanted to see them get crippled. I actually remember dispising Hulk Hogan profusely & i'm probably one of a small group of people who has hated Hogan throught out his career & still do to this day same goes for Warrior.
