    Yeah that is the greatest double turn in history when you consider what stone cold went on to be. Also take into account and happened on the biggest show of the year and just like many said it may have been the only good match on that show. When it's debated that your match is possibly the greatest in wrestlemania history and there was nothing else that was worthwhile on that show

    Austin's heel turn at WM17 was monumental. It put the exclamation point on the Attitude Era and, in addition to Vince buying WCW and the end of ECW, pretty much killed the popularity of wrestling as a global phenomenon. How many of us had friends who stopped watching once Austin turned heel? I personally knew of 5 people who stopped purely for that reason, and they never went back.

    AJ should have lost and been the one to turn heel. He’s proven multiple times he’s a more effective heel. Had they paired Nakamura with Sami Zayn as his mouthpiece, not because his “English ain’t no good” but of course Sami could put over their NXT rivalry, respect, history and sell it as Shinsuke’s too good to speak to any of you people, THEN the heel turn might have worked.

These were two entirely different locations (Convention Hall being owned by the state of New Jersey) and any alleged connection between the two was part of WWF’s and Donald Trump’s marketing for the events.
