Is there a bigger anti draw in wrestling than Steve Austin in 2001?
>getting this worked by a heel

he worked people so hard they stopped watching wrestling
>>2319805
marks are stupid

This is unironically True. GOAT heel.

What was wrong with his heel turn?
>>2319820
he was too over as face to be a heel
it would have been fine 2-3 years later when people started to get bored with the same stone cold shit
>>2319823
I wonder if that is the biggest reason for no heel Cena besides kids.
>>2319820
Steve Austin turned heel and 24 hours later the Rock left to film a movie
So in a day, you just lost your two top baby faces and they were replaced by Undercarder

Cena has literally not appeared on WWE programming for months at a time with zero effect on business.

The worst part is the heel turn was completely his idea too
Austin is a great wrestling mind, why would he choose to do it when the other top face (dwayne) was leaving the next day? What was he thinking?

The logic probably was if he beats down rock and puts him on the shelf he'll get massive heat, but yeah not a great move considering out of nowhere they lost their two top babyfaces
