VIDEO: Popular Star Turns Heel On Monday Night Raw

Switch them up. There are all kinds of ways to present a wrestler but occasionally something needs to be changed. There might be something wrong with what they are doing and it is time to give them something new. One of the most common ways is to have them go from being good to bad or vice versa, which is what we saw this week with a popular star.

This week’s edition of Monday Night Raw featured a match between Shinsuke Nakamura and Tommaso Ciampa. Nakamura went on to win the match with a rollup while grabbing Ciampa’s trunks. This marked a heel turn for Nakamura, who had been showing more of an edge in recent weeks. Nakamura has switched back and forth over the course of his WWE tenure.

It’s a big change. Check out what Nakamura has been doing lately:

Opinion: This is the kind of change that Nakamura has been needing as he has been treading water for more than a little while now. I’m not sure how long it is going to last as almost anything Nakamura does is going to get cheered due to his popularity and that is likely going to be the case again here. For now though, it might be just what he needs and hopefully things get better for him.
