I'm using a broad definition of "undeserved".
You could make the case that a lot of company guys who gave a lot to the business "deserve" a push, but really the fans are ultimately the deciding factor. The fans were not clamoring for MORE Billy Gunn and his reaction from the start of that 99 run was awful.
He could not get anybody to care or even buy him as a threat to The Rock. So I'd say the push was undeserved.
