One of the most retarded fucking arguments about this shit is that this tournament was meant to get Dr.Death over and to set up a feud with Austin.
That is so fucking obviously not true for a number of reasons
>Vince Russo created the tournament. Ignoring the fact that he's on the records of saying that NO ONE who won the tournament was in line for a feud with Austin, do you really think Vince Russo, a guy who didn't know what a double cross was, designed an entire tournament for fucking Steve Williams?
> Austin, during the entire tournament, was a in major feud with Undertaker and Kane. On July 26, he was a in tag match Undertaker vs Kane and Mankind. That tag match set up the main event of Summerslam, which was Undertaker vs Austin. Dr Death lost his fight on July 27, if he had won, when was Austin going to feud with Dr.Death?
>Dr Death, was not, in anyway, the favorite to win the fucking tournament. Cornette is a retarded boomer who knows nothing about combat sports. Had he stayed in, Dan Severn would have killed him, so would Steve Blackman and Marc Mero. Godfather could have beaten him and WWE asked for Ken Shamrock, do you think that they taught Ken Shamrock would lost to fucking Dr. Death?
Cornette is a retard and what likely happened was that Vince just told Dr. Death that he was a gonna get a big push and face Austin, just like he told so many people during that era. Dr. Death then told JR and Cornette what Vince said and they actually believed.
