So how do you feel about EC3's current face run? I love EC3, but honestly..it feels like he deserves all of what he is getting. I hope they make him realize this, then truly his redemption could start. But...can you really blame Spud for attacking him?
Their match last year was great, hopefully they have some more.

It was about time that EC3 went face. The fans wanted to really get behind him for some time now. And Matt Hardy is more suited as the heel for that feud. I am guessing EC3 will feud with Spud. Which seems so dumb, because I don't think anyone really wants to boo Spud either.

Yea, I'm intrigued by EC3 as a babyface.... while I truly think he's a natural heel (and better suited to be one) I'm keeping an open mind about his face run.
Although, I'm not sure about the whole "Ass Kicking Machine" gimmick.... I think his aristocratic style could have translated a little differently to a babyface role? I mean, Brock Lesnar is an "ass kicking machine"..... but I think EC3 is capable of bringing some of those "Rock-style" comic promos that could catch fire & really go to the next level.... but not as an "a$$ kicking machine".
I think they rushed the Spud stuff - I think they could have had a longer (and fun) reunion with some "Edge & Christian-style" comedy stuff before going into a more serious heel turn & feud.... but whatever, maybe they have something bigger planned & Spud was just a one-off thing.
Deep down, I yearn for EC3 to return to his heelish ways, as a truly good villain is somewhat rare these days - and EC3 did it so well!

its working...and im kinda surprised.
cuz like u said......he was a vicious heel that really deserves all the crap he's getting.
He tried to murder Spud when he was his assistant.
He forced Jeff Hardy into servitude.
He made Dixies life miserable.

I've been a skeptic, even though I thought it was the right move for him, but it's totally working. Last night really felt like a top babyface moment for him imo. He came out to the ring, stood tall, and I was like "Yay mother er, EC3 is here!" Haha. I think the one thing that really gets a guy over, is earning respect as a heel. HBK, Steve Austin, The Rock, Triple H, Bobby Roode, CM Punk, so many guys who go that route, come out the other side of it more popular than ever. Seth Rollins is going to experience the same thing if WWE lets him return as a babyface. EC3 was so magnificent as a heel that people wanted to cheer him so badly. Now, the fans are getting the chance and the booking and EC3 have both been strong. I think the real test will come if they give EC3 an extended babyface run with the title. It seems like it's much harder to keep fans invested in a top babyface during a lengthy run. Heels can cheat, and duck, and dodge, and escape, but the babyface has to continue to go over clean without looking like Roman Reigns. It's a hard act to juggle.

I actually think that's a nice little detail regarding EC3's face turn. EC3 is redeeming himself to the fans, but he's also facing the consequences of what he did while he was a heel.
I always love little details like that in wrestling.

It was a good move and had to be done. He was getting kind of stale and TNA has "The Miracle" Michael Bennett as the up and coming undefeated heel now.
