You can look at it that way. As I see it, Owen used all interactions at the time to simply play games.I think the amount of people who were there show it wasnt a mistake. BST is a fans organisation and its what many fans wanted. I dont think it achieved anything, but not doing it doesn't achieve anything either, you know? Worst way of looking at it is fans got a chance to vent their frustrations and that's no great bad thing. If anything, maybe it helped OO realise his view that a few wins would get the fans back was a delusion. I doubt he saw it that way though. It just wasn't worthy of inclusion in the book imo, and achieved little in the grandscheme of things. But even if you got Jeremy Paxman himself in the ring with him for an hour, that would have hardly changed anything either, in fairness.
He was in his element at the Hilton and was 100% in control of the whole affair. He relished the attention and left the room as he entered it, with a beaming smile on his face.
The event itself was a complete and utter pantomime.
