It was the first time that pushed heels got a pop from fans. You could see Jim Crockett(along with all the old farts in the stands) scratching his head and wondering what was going on.

This is my main problem with th WWF. They refuse to let heels be fan favorites. They do everything in their power , once they decide a wrestler is going to be a heel, to turn the crowd against him. They turn all heels into bafoonish type characters. It's so predictable. And when a heel does begin getting cheers, lock clockwork, that wrestler has to insult the fans and/or hometown they are in to immediately turn it around. That sucks. I say, LET HEELS BE COOL!!

You don't know what you're talking about.

If Austin and The Rock aren't fan favorite heels, I don't know who are. As a matter of fact, The WWF allowing heel characters to be cheered is what has allowed Wrestling to be reborn. Fans were simply tired of cheering for squeeky-clean, bubble-gum characters.
