I agree, Austin was the best during his 2001 world championship reign. He was the best part of that year in wrestling. He did seem to work harder to please the fans, wasn't afraid to embarrass himself and was always entertaining/funny. I didn't find all of this with the face Austin.
I also remember going to a Smackdown taping in Toronto, and Austin let Sgt. Slaughter punch him down at the end of the show, he seemed drunk. Austin was off the charts during this time.
