Austin struggled past Foley back in the day. Didn't make him look any weaker. Bret Hart nearly lost to The Patriot FFS. Did it make him look weak? No.
Fallible, yes. Like every wrestler should be.

A lot of Austin's bouts even with Foley, though, ended with OMG STUNNER!, and Austin usually "had Foley beat" several times per match since McMahon was "trying to screw Austin out of the title".
Bret's loss to The Patriot was also as a heel, and Bret's more of a technical wrestler that works a guy over than Batista could ever even DREAM of being, not to mention that Batista's being pushed going into WrestleMania as the defending champion, while Bret's match with The Patriot was on Bret's way out of the company to be honest.
