you turn a guy when businesses is slumping not when its red hot. imo austin knew his bump card was running out and wanted not to have to bump so much. the heel turn was for selfish reasons not for business reasons. it didnt work and he never recovered from it.

You have to bump far more as a heel.

It was a terrible idea and didn't work because nobody wanted to boo him and nobody wanted to pay to see Steve Austin as a heel headlining. That about covers it really. That's not to say the work itself was bad, it was great, just nobody wanted it. The wrestling fans that were going to stay forever are the ones inclined not to judge it based on big picture, but on if they enjoy the show. The ones that make the difference had no desire to see it.
