The WWF needed a new champion, and Hart was chosen. The reason it happened so fast was because they wanted Bret to win the belt in front of his home fans. Hart won the World Title on the last canadian show before Flair was to leave.
Flair was around for 5 months after he lost the title so there was no rush to get the belt off him. He didn't even ask to leave until January. It's obvious Savage was on juice but even then, they needed a new babyface champion. Savage was already champ for most of that year.
