When will WWE stop creating chicken shit heels?

First Seth rollins, then Rusev then Kevin Owens, theres 3 top heels that act like chicken shit, always running from fights, cheating to win, where are the days gone of dominant heels? its seems WWE's idea of a heel these days is a chicken shit that runs from every fight, Kevin Owens and Rusev both came into the roster and dominant superstars that crushed their oppenents and now they struggle to stay in the ring let alone get wins, WWE needs to start making their heels look strong especialy when your WWE champ is getting buried and made to look a fucking pussy week after week, this shit pissed me off man

Note: I rewatched a few youtube clips from the night evolution formed a few weeks ago.

The night Evolution formed, HHH's story, emphasized by commentary, was that he was afraid of Scott Steiner. Steiner hurt HHH the night before at a PPV. HHH cheated to win. HHH ran from confrontation the night after. Flair was with HHH before evolution and was acting like an elderly J+J, defending and getting involved.

HHH regained some 'badass' heat with his team, but looked like a completely cowardly chickenshit heel prior to enlisting them.

We're crossing wires on HHH gimmicks. Hardcore HHH was prior/during McMahon Helmsley. Cowardly HHH during Evolution.

Is an easy formula:

1st_ Let him win the first world title reign as a heel, that way the talent can win it without too much build up.
2st_ Book him as a coward who can't defend it's title without cheating, that way if the talent flops they don't have him pinning credible guys clean.
3rd_ Book him to retain the title for at least 3 PPVs by cheating, count outs or DQ and see how the crowd reacts.
4th_ If the crowds starts cheering the guy take the title out of his waist and turn him face by antagonizing a bigger/newest heel act.
5th_ Once the talent has fully become a face and it's accepted by the crowd it's time to return him to the world title picture.
6th_ Let him win the world title but this time as a face, obviously being a face means he is "unpinable" and nobody can take the title from him clean.
7th_ Repeat the cycle with another heel talent you want to elevate.

e.g. The Rock, Kurt Angle, Edge, CM Punk, Daniel Bryan, Sheamus, Rollins.

There is nothing new under the sun, is a rarity in WWE to win your first world title reign as a face and of top of that retaining by being booked credible, that booking is reserve for the Hogans, Stone Colds, Batistas and Cenas.

The problem is that it takes away from Rollins's character when every other heel is acting like him.

Sure, Ric Flair was a chicken-shit heel, but he made sure that he was the only chicken-shit heel in the territory. Otherwise other wrestlers would be eating from his plate by doing the same character.

"Fight Owens Fight" hardly makes any sense anyway if he's always the guy backing down from a fight. It makes him look like a clown. You can be presented as a tough bully asshole without having to be a complete coward, and still get heat.
