Has anyone or if not, would anyone make a comprehensive list of all Shimmer face/heel turns during its existence in order with volumes? I know theres an old thread but that's over 2 years old so... yeah... Thanks

Okay here goes...
1) Volume 3
Rebecca Knox turns heel in her debut match by faking an injury against Alison Danger
2) Volume 6
Nikita who wrestled as a babyface against Lacey on volume 5 wrestlers as a heel against Daizee Haze
3) Volume 8
Cheerleader Melissa turns babyface and sides with MsChif as they both have issues with Lacey and Rain.
Also though it doesn't count it looked like Mercedes was turning heel until her injury
4) Volume 9
Cindy Rogers turns heel on Alison Danger and helps the Experience beat them in a tag match
5) Volume 9
In the very next match Portia Perez turns heel and hits Josie with her yellow chain to win the match
-It should be pointed out that Sarah Stock, while more of a face than heel, could be viewed as a tweener
6) Volume 19
Sara Del Rey completes the heel turn she hinted at on the previous two volumes and comes out in a new look and attacks Ariel after the opening match
-Also Mercedes returned on this volume as a face with no mention of the heel-ness she displayed in volume 8
7) Volume 23
Wesna Busic turns heel by joining up with Annie Social and cheating to beat Melissa.
8) Sparkle before Volume 25
Kimberly Kash was tag partners with Sassy Steph on Sparkle priot to Volume 23, but here she's facing Steph and turned face I assume!
9) Volume 27
Daffney turns heel by walking out on Rachel Summerlyn during a tag match against Jetta & Rain
10) Volume 28
Amazing Kong turns babyface, or tweener, by showing respect to MsChif after the main event
11) Volume 29
Daizee Haze turns heel by attacking Ohata after losing the match against her
12) Volume 30
Madison Eagles turns heel by cheating to defeat Melissa in a #1 contenders match
13) Volume 36
Not sure about this one, but I think Daffney turned back face by saying she was proud of Rachel as if her heel turn was just to motivate her.
14) Volume 41
Nevaeh turns heel by interupting her ex partners interview segment and demanding a match against Lane. Then cheating to win it.
15) Volume 43
Britani Knight turns face after Saraya attacks her after she lost to McKay. Britani stands up to her Mum and turns babyface.
16) & 17) Volume 44
Athena turns face and Mercedes turns heel. After they wrestled to a double count out last time, Mercedes snaps and attacks Athena with a chair. Double turn!
18) Volume 47
Questionable one this. Looking at Sparkle results Rhia O'Reiley appears to have been a babyface then, but here she debuts on the actual show as a heel.
-Note it looks like Sara Del Rey was on the verge of a babyface turn with the team with Rush, but she got signed by the WWE and this never happened.
19) Sparkle Volume 49
Another sparkle only turn! Angelus Layne appeared to be a face in her first sparkle matches, but now is a heel against Sweet Cherie in this sparkle match. Well, I think she is anyway.
20) Volume 49
Taylor Made turns heel by forming Made in Sin with Allysin Kaye
21) Volume 50
Cherry Bomb was face in Sparkle, but here in a DVD debut shes a heel. She doesn't do much heeling, but you can tell she's on her way to becoming one.
22) Volume 50
Kellie Skater's babyface turn was a slow one where the fans slowly got behind her. She had the full crowd support behind her in the next match against Saraya, but I think the face turn really began here with her match against Ohka. I think they may have shook hands after too.
23) Volume 52
Tomoka Nakagawa forms 3G with Kellie Skater and turns face. Doesn't stop her cheating right away though...
24) Sparkle prior to Volume 54
After being a heel (I think!) in her first Sparkle match Heidi Lovelace is a face in her 2nd one by taking on Layne
--) Sparkle priot to volume 56
Marti Belle, previously a heel is facing Angelus Layne, who was a face-then-a-heel-now-a-?? in a Sparkle match. I'm not going to count this one as I am too confused! Perhaps this is Shimmer's first heel vs heel match?
25) Volume 57
Melissa turns heel during Danger's retirement match.
26) Volume 64
Veda Scott turns heel on new partner Leva Bates after tag match

Sparkle is a separate entity from the SHIMMER DVD series. Tryouts, yo!

Lol, I was just trying to be as "comprehensive" as possible as per the OP's wishes.
Ignoring Sparkle we have
1) Rebecca Knox. Face > Heel
2) Nikita. Face > Heel
3) Cheerleader Melissa. Heel > Face
4) Cindy Rogers. Face > Heel
5) Portia Perez. Face > Heel
6) Sara Del Rey. Face > Heel
7) Wesna Busic. Face > Heel
8) Daffney. Face > Heel
9) Amazing Kong. Heel > Face
10) Daizee Haze. Face > Heel
11) Madison Eagles. Face > Heel
12) Nevaeh. Face > Heel
13) Britani Knight. Heel > Face
14) Athena. Heel > Face
15) Mercedes Martinez. Face > Heel
16) Taylor Made. Face > Heel
17) Kellie Skater. Heel > Face
18) Tomoka Nakagawa. Heel > Face
19) Cheerleader Melissa. Face > Heel
20) Veda Scott. Face > Heel
I left out the Daffney possible face turn as it was her last appearence in Shimmer. I kept Kong's as she did have one final match against Mia Yim and didn't act heelish in it... Though she really is above the face/heel divide.
So out of the 20 turns only 6 have turned face. If you exclude Daffney's face turn then Melissa is the only one to turn and then turn back.

Havok appeared to be turning face at 66 thanks to Portia's wrench.

I thought she was going to turn face when she answered Madison Eagle's challenge too.
I guess we'll see if she returns now that she's in TNA.

One thing I always wondered about and wonder again after rewatching it this weekend is on Vol 1 Melissa seemingly came out as a face against a heel MsChif. Wouldn't that count as a double switch due to Melissa's excessive rulebreaking and Chif playing the face-in-peril gaining crowd sympathy?

Wasn't MsChif usually a heel in IWA Mid-South and NWA Midwest at this time?
With Cheerleader Melissa being relatively unknown to the Chicago audience, the fans probably thought that she must be the face then.

I think the crowd were confused at first as you'd assume the cheerleader was the face and the screaming banshee was the heel. |

We brought Melissa in at IWA Mid-South earlier that year, so a lot of fans in this area were already familiar with her.
In 2004/2005 MsChif was portrayed as a loner who had no allies. That was supposed to eventually lead to Dark Angel coming in as her only friend, forming a team. I ended up leaving before it could come together.

I'd be confused too seeing as she was high fiving fans but what are ya gonna do. |
