ECW fans hated WCW and Bischoff and a guy like Austin showed up and was funny and charismatic on the mic and it confirmed the bias they already had, that regards ran the show in Atlanta and were keeping people down.
No one ever gave a fuck about Austin. Truly. But it showed that this guy got a bad break. He’s from Texas, can talk the talk better than probably 99 percent of people in both feds and is not so bad in the ring they couldn’t work around it. So whut do? Make him a Hollywood Blonde. Because he has blonde hair. Zzzzzz. Heyman knew there was something in there that’s why he wanted him for the DA when he was working for WCW. He spotted it in Undertaker as well. The Jew has a nose for the business. Austin was the shits in the ring, don’t ever let anyone tell you it’s his knees or otherwise, but Heyman could see he had charisma. That’s why he brought him in promoing not having some crazy match with Sabu or some technical masterpiece like the Benoit Malenko showcase matches.
When a guy that no one has ever cared about pops into ECW and completely changes the way everyone looks at him with a few promo spots it does make waves. Enough it’s being brought up 30 years later.
