I thought about some WCW ones, but the thing with WCW is that they were always going to make bone-headed decisions just because of the philosophy and mentality of people there. You can change one finish, then you're going to get politics fucking up something a month later.

In a perfect world, Hogan would have been willing to play ball and maybe build to something with Bret. But it isn't and he wasn't.

I don't blame Austin's performances or anything. There was an air around the product, you're right, and it didn't help that they were losing all their babyfaces. They probably should have had a tiny bit more foresight and had people built up to go against a heel Austin should they have wanted to go down that route.
