WWE News: Major Heel Turn Occurs During Monday Night Raw Ahead Of WWE Backlash 2024
One notable WWE superstar has turned heel.
It isn't often that an in-ring performer stays a babyface or a heel for their entire career. Even John Cena was a heel at one point.
One star who recently turned to the dark side had been trying to resist the turn for weeks, but the heels won out tonight.

For weeks, Candice LeRae had been trying to convince Indi Hartwell to use underhanded tactics in their tag team matches.
Despite being hesitant in the beginning, Indi has finally turned over to the dark side. During the April 15th episode of Monday Night Raw, Indi and Candice teamed to take on Ivy Nile and Maxxine Dupri.
Indi distracted the referee to nail Maxxine with a cheap shot. She then pulled Candice onto Dupri to get the win for her team. Commentators Michael Cole and Pat McAfee suspected that LeRae will be quite pleased with what Indi did during the match, finally deciding that winning is more important than being liked by the fans or having respect for their in-ring opponents.
With Candice LeRae and Indi Hartwell now officially on the same page, that means bad news for the women's tag team division. It'll be interesting to see how far the heel team goes with a new attitude.
