I didn't start watching wrestling til 1999, but I have read about Hogan's heel turn and it seems the most shocking one. People in the audience crying, throwing things at the newly formed nWo. He changed everything he was. He was the icon, the role model, telling kids to take vitamins and say prayers, then all of a sudden he's alligning himself with these two outsiders.
The way Austin did it wasn't that bad. He used a chair in a no-holds-barred match. He wanted to be WWF champion and he did it. When the time was right, he ditched Vince and stabbed him in the back by taking the WWF belt to WCW. It was classic Austin. Don't Trust Anybody.
So yeah, Hogans was the better heel turn because of the impact to the wrestling, both immediate and long-term.
