Brock had the entire damned roster and could have had a match with Austin with build down the road. Shawn had already beaten Bret and was already a great heel at that point. As I said, your examples don't hold that much weight. I'm a fan of Hogan's work, and I get his politicking, but sometimes he was far more of a cunt than most, this being a HUGE example.

I read what you wrote, its typical IWC, lifted from the Newsletters point of view.

Certain guys who were politicians get a pass because they have 4-5 star matches. The guys who dont, like Hogan and Nash, get buried online and in the sheets. Its standard fare. Ive read it all before. I just dont happen to feel the need to have the millionth debate about whether or not Bret was in the right to refuse the finish he was given. Because as we know the entire country of Canada would have went into a state of mourning if they had to see Bret do a JOB.

Its all the same issue to me regardless of the excuse. Promoter comes up with an angle, the top star kicks up a fuss, and says "no". Promoter then makes alternate plans. Its happened in every territory in every era, its nothing new.

I will say, the issue to me is not who has the better reasoning to balk at a finish, to me its just the act itself which is at issue, and proves that everyone plays politics at the top.
