I agree with you on everything but it wasn't the story, Austin got booed for the next 2 shows after the Flair face turn. If I remember correctly Rock cut a promo a week after that and tried to put him over and the crowd booed, I can't find this, but it was the SD after SVS 2001 or the RAW after the Flair return. It took a few weeks for Austin to get full support again. Which is understandable with the horrible turn they did.that face turn is enough proof that austin is one of the best - if not the best - face character in WWE history , and why vince is one of - if not the best - heel character of all time
one day earlier vince was a super-over face while austin was a mega heel , the next night all they had to do to switch that is hit austin's music and have him beat the shit out of vince , they didn't need to cut a promo or have a dramatic finish or any of that bullshit .. all they did is have austin whip vince and boom , austin is a face and vince is satan's twin once again
