Austin would defeat Michaels at Unforgiven with a finish that was in question. Austin would once again defy the odds defeating Shawn in a last chance match at Over the Edge1998.

This would come to blows at No Way Out 1999, with The Rock turning his back on the fans and stealing the title being Vince's new poster child. Shawn Michaels would soon be angered by this, and be considered washed up. Shawn would slowly struggle with the fact that he wasn't the poster child, Steve Austin who has the Mania shot also was brought into this, and of course the betrayed Mankind.
