3 current stars who have never turned heel in AEW


AEW has expanded the size of its roster since the company's inception in 2019. The promotion has added several top stars from around the world. Some of the biggest names in the business work for Tony Khan's promotion including Adam Copeland, MJF, Konosuke Takeshita, Kazuchika Okada, Will Ospreay and many more. Therefore, the company has been able to improve the quality of the matches in recent years. In this article, we will discuss the three current stars who have never turned heel in AEW. These are stars who have been babyfaces throughout their careers with the company.

#3. Adam Copeland

After a legendary career with WWE, Adam Copeland joined AEW in 2023 to fight new opponents. However, his first feud in the Jacksonville promotion was against his best friend Christian Cage. The two men battled for the TNT Championship for several months. Throughout his All Elite Wrestling career, the Rated R Superstar has competed against some opponents he has never faced before. He has also kept a baby face throughout his time with the company.

This is somewhat of a surprise as Copeland's best work in his iconic heel career. During his time in WWE, the former Edge was widely regarded as one of the best heels in the business. However, since joining Tony Khan's company, he has yet to turn heel. Only time will tell if Tony will pull the trigger on turning Copeland heel in the future.

#2. Orange Cassidy

From his first day in AEW, Orange Cassidy has been a fan favorite due to his unique style of wrestling. Cassidy has also shown a lot of heart and stamina in the ring. The best example of this was his iconic International Championship reign where he defended the title almost every week on television. Sometimes, he defended the title more than once a week.

Cassidy has stuck with the Jacksonville promotion for a long time and hasn't turned around even when his own friend, Trent Beretta, turned on him.

#1. Willow Nightingale has never turned heel in AEW

willow nightingale has been part of the AEW roster since 2021. Since then he has shown great growth in his character development and in-ring skills. He even won the TBS Championship once. Although Willow Nightingale faced the challenge of staying baby-faced during her relationship with Kris Statlander, where he betrayed her, she still stayed true to herself.

Despite her lackluster booking in recent months, Willow Nightingale has shown no signs of turning around. He also seems genuinely happy with The Conglomeration.

It remains to be seen if past AEW stars will turn heel in the future.
