Remember back to 1996? Bash at the Beach, when Hogan turned heel and joined the NWO? The crowd went ballistic, literally throwing any piece of litter they could get their hands on and lobbing it at the ring. Even Hogan himself reflected in future interviews that he had concerns about how the fans would react and getting out of the arena etc. At the time people were pissed off more than a catheter. You wouldn't have been faulted for assuming from that reaction that Hogan turning heel was a terrible move but then what happened? It became one of the most memorable moments and storylines in the history of the entire business, put WCW on the map, made Hall and Nash into legends, re-ignited Hogan's career and almost destroyed the WWE particularly in the Monday Night Wars.

If WCW had re-jigged their plans in light of the reaction at BATB who knows what would have happened?

Just because it doesn't seem like the right decision now doesn't mean it's going to be like that further down the line.
the difference being that was the kind of reaction they were going for.

Yes but don't you think for one moment WCW considered the possibility of the whole angle backfiring on them spectacularly?

I don't feel like WCW was good at considering that possibility.
