Court Bauer, who was a WWE writer at the time and worked under Vince McMahon's regime, shed some insight regarding the match. Speaking on podcast, Bauer believes McMahon stirred the pot too much between the two superstars, which led to mocking the match: “As it got closer and closer to the match, there were some bad feelings from Shawn's side. I don't know if Vince meant it. I don't know if he's trying to manipulate the situation, because if he did, the outcome I don't think was something he desired. The outcome was a match that looked like a parody of a match and then no one wanted to do business after the match.” [H/T - ] The match turned out to be one of the worst matches of the year as Michaels decided to oversell every move after Hogan refused to work a trilogy of matches with him.
