#3.) Sheamus

Sheamus has always been a natural heel and it took a while for WWE to realize it. He was thriving as a heel even from the start and he established himself as a top heel. However, WWE understandably wanted to try a different direction with him and turned him face in 2011 and he began gaining serious momentum, going on 2 separate winning streaks.

His 2012 would be the best year of his career on paper as he won the Royal Rumble match and spent half the year as World Heavyweight Champion, but the reality is that he never really clicked or connected as a babyface despite enjoying some popularity. He would remain a face for quite some time until he had an extended injury in 2014. In 2015, he finally returned as a heel.
