At least the title was in some way the centerpiece of the feud and was made to seem important. Austin was willing to go through hell to get the shot.
Yeah. Austin and McMahon revolved around McMahon not wanting a rebellious, anti-corporate champion. Made it seem like who held the title was a huge deal in the boss' eyes. Same with Rock and Foley even. Rock was McMahon's champion and Foley didn't fit his "mold".
