Double heel turn at WM13 with Bret/Austin, easily for me. Something still not seen 15 years later and talked about like it happened yesterday. Absolutely perfect execution (sans pun.)

I love this rivalry review: Steve Austin vs. Bret Hart Rivalry in Review - Wrestling Forum : WWE, TNA, ROH, Wrestling Videos, Women of Wrestling Forums - I forgot they fought in early May even after Bret "retired" from WM 12 loss.

Hogan should be at the top of the list here. And Bret's and SCSA double heel and face turn was the epitome of great storytelling. I wonder who wrote that angle out there or if they did it themselves.

Vinny Mac made the call but Bret wrote up the ending with Patterson I believe.

HBK after WM XI - it was crazy watching as a kid, cheering Sid as he gave him about 18 powerbombs but as soon as Diesel came out to help being like 'oh wait, that was f'd up Sid! Boo!'

One that hasn't been mentioned yet. Undertaker turning face in 1992 after debuting as a heel. Worked out great for him and the WWF, he remained a babyface until late '98/early '99 IIRC.

I'll never forget BPP's turn on Rick. The ring was cleared and they were doing the taunt where Rick is on all fours and Scott's on his back. He winked to The Outsiders and delivered an axe handle to his brother.
