Senhor Perfect said:Not watching but saw this post, who did Michaels ever job to before Austin? He's the only person to vacate the World Title twice because he didnt want to job to anyone. Hart would've dropped it to Austin, which would've made way more sense in kayfabe. Bret always was the bigger man, dropping the title to Hogan via Yoko, dropping to Shawn, and dropping to Backlund. Could you EVER see Shawn jobbing to BOb? I wouldn't want my last match to be dropping the title to Shawn either.
seabs said:I agree it would have been a nice gesture to a loyal employee but Shawn was his second big star in a time of need, they couldn't risk putting the title on anyone but a big star at the time.
RiotRaven said:True, but still :/ Vince could have respected his performers wishes.

Senhor Perfect said:Taker and Austin were right there too, Bret would've dropped it to Taker too without a second thought.
seabs said:He dropped it to Sid at SVS and only vacated it once, as I said before who else could Vince put it on? If Hart was #1 Shawn was #2 and then there was a huge gap and with the NWO kicking Raw's ass in the ratings it needed to go on a top star. Bret should have appreciated it was the only viable business option.
