Summerslam 96s shitty buy rate was also blamed on Vader...which led to his removal from the ME scene.
The booking leading up to Summerslam was rotten.

I feel like Vince was trying to get that Sting/Vader magic that WCW had years earlier with HBK/Vader. Only problem is, Sting sold for Vader. Sting got beat up by Vader. HBK pretty much had 75% offence if not more in that SummerSlam match.
HBK was known for taking a beating. So why not have him take the best beating he could at the hands of Vader?? It made zero sense. And this is coming from an HBK fan!

Absolutely....nuts booking. Seems HBK didn't want to work with Vader & definitely not lose to him.

It was a bad sign off the bat with Vader in WWF with the way HBK eliminated em from the Rumble
But like its been said in the past here, Him running away from HBK was the end right then and there. No coming back from that.
