You now remember when WWE tried (and failed) to get The Miz over as a babyface
Seriously. What the fuck were they thinking?
They weren't as usual
It's not just the Miz, they can't get ANYONE over as a babyface, they are unbelievably stupid. CM Punk and Daniel Bryan got over on their own, in spite of their atrocious booking decisions, AJ Styles got over as a babyface while being booked as a heel. Bayley, Roman Reigns and Jason Jordan are their honest, hard attempts at getting a babyface over and they have all failed tremendously. The reason they're in such rough shape right now is because they couldn't get a babyface over if they fucking tried.
The fall from that GOAT Wrestlemania hype video with the Nas soundtrack to him failing to be the next ric flair was jaw dropping.

And now they're trying to get Charlotte over as a babyface. Some things never change.

I think Charlotte actually worked in this case. She's obviously over with the smarks and SD is the smark show. Why not have her turn face?
>>2980110
She'll stop being over the second she actually gets pushed and wins the title again. She isn't top babyface material and has already bombed horribly before in that role

HHH managed to get Gargano over as a face in NXT.

As long as they keep her cocky, I think it could work. Once they try that white meat shit, though, she's dead. They tried it in NXT and it was shit. She wasn't over until she was a BFF with Summer and Sasha.
>tfw this was the first Raw i went to
Oh my god is THAT what his Figure Four used to look like?

Gargano is a natural babyface, I think the CWC match vs. Ciampa was one of the best stories they've done in a match in quite a while.

>Ric Flair got involved.
There you have your reason

Ric Flair Jr. is a death sentence of a gimmick that no one, no matter how good, has ever made work.
