When he was healthier, he was a damn good worker. He worked his ass off in every match, but that was then. I don't think he cares about holding the little guys down. HHH does enough of that for the both of them and he still needs to because he's still a wrestler. The last time Austing was abusive, it was because he was having major problems with the fact that he couldn't wrestle anymore. This time, I think it's because he knows he's out the door. I doubt that he could have postponed it any by holding down the midcard heels, either. He had Goldberg, HBK, HHH and all of the other main eventers to push him out of the limelight (which as far as I'm concerned, he was long before any of this happened) The whole story is sad and drawn out....Point is, when he left the last time, he should have done it the proper way, said his goodbyes to the croud, and lived on as a wrestling great in everyone's memory. Instead, we'll all remember his last appearance as the time he rode around the ring on his bigwheel...
