Austin was a terrible heel for the fallowing reasons...

1) Everyone wanted to cheer him.
2) Austin's character already had used heel tactics for years.
3) Him and McMahon being buddy buddy made ZERO sense.
4) Triple H got injured before he could rub some of his ubber heelishness on him.
5) He was funny, and funny is never effective at getting a heel over.
6) WHAT? - caught on.
7) His eventual joining of the Alliance was one of the worst put together ideas of all time.
8) He resorted to stunning JR and Molly Holly...and STILL got pops.

Seriously, his heel run was about as well received at John Cena's face run. Only mercifully, Austin's heel run only lasted a year, Cena we're still sitting at 3 years and counting...
