something that annoys me in wrestling storylines

There are 3 types of wrestlers according to alignment, Faces,Heels and Tweeners. Faces are the heroes or Good guys, they were very popular to kids. Heels are the villainous wrestlers and Tweeners are the Neutral Wrestlers.
When a Face wrestler is getting stale, usually the companies make them heel. If a heel is too charismatic to be a villain they turn them Faces,
Now this is something I hate in Wrestling scripts, when a face turned Heel, They were suddenly bestfriends with Heel Wrestlers who are previously their enemies.
Then when a Heel Wrestler turns face, they were suddenly best friends with the other faces.
This cliche annoys me.
--------
Another thing that annoys me,
When 2 faces feud, one of them usually turns heel.
If 2 heels feud,one of them will turn face,
In real life there are good people who are enemies,
In real life there are bad people who are enemies,
I wish the creative team of WWE will occasionally feud faces withoutn someone turning heel, like a friendly rivalry.
or Have some heels feud, like how they will out-evil each other.
Its a good thing that TNA, is trying to make risk by having 2 Heel vs. heel matches on their next pay per view but my fear is that one of those heels will turn face.
I want 2 heels to feud and remain heels and enemies after feud.
I want to Faces to feud without someone turn heel.

hello Capt,
I never understand or never appreciate the world of wrestling until I've watched the movie "The Wrestler".
I always wonder why people like watching such crazy entertainment.
My brothers like it,they have collections of dvd's and poster of their favorites.
But,after watching the movie "The Wrestler" everything went flat.
Although I still do not understand much the world of wrestling, but the movie tells me something about the people behind that world.
Have a good day

indeed they need to be edgy, even in comics books, some super heroes dont get along, some super heroes actually gets along well with some super villains and some supervillains hates each other.
Remember when Sheamus is still a Heel, now he is face, he is friends with John Cena, so as CM Punk. didnt people liked CM Punk cos his character hates John Cena, then just because he is a face, he is suddeny good friends with him. He can still be a good guy and remain a rival to John Cena.

and now most of them are a bunch of jobbers, only few of them became relavant now. I think wwe is treating their heels like crap now. I like heels who attacks both faces and heels.
WWE will die soon if they focus too much in Cena, cos they need to start building upnew wrestlers for the future. Cena is not young and strong forever. But wwe keeps on burying their young talents.

well you aren't the only one who is annoyed.take a look at cm punk and edge.one week they are heel and suddenly out of blue,they turn faces.while i sit in my living room confused,the cheering from the crowd confuses me even more.
what.do they tell the crowd while buying ticket "here you go.hey today edge is going to turn face so make sure you cheer" ?
now R-truth,is he face or heel?
he still got lil jimmy with him but is tagged up with kingston?
divas title is boring.i usually skip it.wwe has to somehow make the tag team of primo,hunico and the usos headline main events.
because these team got some very good fighting skills but not much exposure or good story line.
i wonder how long before the US and intercontinental championships turn boring.
may be the writers should start looking beyond cena and other main eventors.
since we are talking about heels and faces,who do you think is gonna turn heel in the rock-cena match?
i am betting on kane interupting the match and smashing both cena and rock.lol

Im kinda sad about women's wrestling cos it use to be relevant but i know the reason why its terrible cos they want the good female wrestlers to hold back their talents so they wont outshine the male wrestlers while the terrible female wrestlers wont have chance to improve cos they only have 2 minute matches.I remember gail Kim quitting cos she said they were badly treated and not allowed to showcase their talent.
Since less people cares for diva's division it wont harm if they have heel vs heel matches, since majority of their best wrestlers are heels.
I dont of if the rock will agree to become heel cos it may harm his hollwood career. Lots of people wants Cena to turn Heel and just when we thought he will turn heel its Eve Torres who becames heel. He is burying the entire roster LOL.
I think Intercontinental is not that bad but US title is now as terrible as Divas title. There is a glimmer of hope with tag teams despite of lack of tag teams.

Yeah this is one of those things in wrestling that it happens, I know it happens, with hated enemies becoming best bosum buddies a couple of weeks granted. Granted, people will change their ways and turn good. Babyface vs. babyface can be a tough one to do without turning one of the competitors heel, either temporarily or by default. Heel vs. heel is slightly easier, but you run the risk of the fan sitting on their hands and not caring, because there is no one to cheer for. Of course, the most triumphant example of a heel vs. heel match was Jake "The Snake" Roberts vs. Randy "Macho Man" Savage on Saturday Night's Main Event in 1986, which was a glorious example of who can out heel who.
A heel turning babyface and suddenly becoming best friends with the other babyfaces, especially if he has done some wicked, vile, and nasty things inside the context of a wrestling storyline to them, that can be the most annoying of the two. For example, to use a comic books, if Lex Luthor had suddenly turned good guy, he sure isn't going to be buddy-buddy with Superman. There is going to be some underlying tension at the very least, because of years of history. Of course, the other way isn't rather smart either, with the babyface turning heel and joining forces with said heels that he has had a heated rivalry with for some time. Like for example, over on the show that no one but me and about ten other people seem to watch, NXT, Darren Young and Titus O'Neil feuded with what seems to be an eternity, with Darren Young attacking Titus, calling him an NXT failure, and calling his kids stupid. And then Titus O'Neil turns babyface and suddenly him and Darren Young are buddies like a week later.
I fear that Austin Aries is going to turn babyface, which would be a stupid thing. I remember his babyface run back in Ring of Honor and how boring it was. He just has natural heel charisma and it seems to die when he is a babyface. As for the women...well, I fear that if they do turn either of them babyface, it will be the wrong one and by the wrong one, I mean Madison Rayne. But heel vs. heel about nine times out of ten seems to be a catalyst to turn someone babyface. But this is just one of those things that has been going on with wrestling since 19whatever. It really got bad during both the Attitude Era and during the NWO era back in WCW.

I also have a fear of Both Austin Aries and Madison Rayne turning faces. They were really good heels. Plus it may harm their wrestling skills too cos they will have to change their moveset.
I thinka good way to make 2 faces feud and have two heels feud is to have some sort of "tournament storyline" Or have a Power Hungry authority figure who intentionally make friends fight each other.
