[Deezy]

Steve Austins run defined his anti-authority character.

Goldust played a fag, then a goof. Austin gets my vote.

 

[The New F'n Show]

Went Goldust because it was a career defining moment he was never getting higher than the IC title.

 

[Keith]

Might be a upset, but Austin kind of transceded the title, whereas Goldust as Champion made sense, and he did draw some great heat at the time.

 

[The New F'n Show]

I would call it an upset but Goldust gets the win.

 

[Troy]

Austin didn't really do much as IC champion obviously not his fault the first time around. Goldust did a lot as IC champion and I am glad that he made it to the next round.
