For one the Brock v Austin match should have been the final of that King of the Ring instead of a qualifying match. That run should have been Austin's Mama Said Knock You Out

Hogan was promised a rematch where he'd get his win back at Survivor Series 2002 in order to agree to this iirc, but then Vince was like sorry pal, which led to his return getting delayed until 2003.
they just wanted to beat Austin on Raw in a king of the ring qualifying match. no later program or anything, cold. unadvertised ahead of time. Austin was right to say fukk yall and your hotshotting.
CM Punk when Vince tells him "I owe you one"Maybe Vince learned from the Austin situation and that's why he promised Hogan his win back
Reading this thread, it's crazy to think how stacked the 2002 roster was. Vince could legitimately act like Hogan and Austin were expendable.
