#3 That one iconic visual
What's that one visual that immediately comes to your mind when you think of Austin vs McMahon? Stone Cold delivering a Stunner on the evil boss!
Owens was allowed to use the Stunner to get him over with the fans as a babyface. His heel turn trashed those plans in a hurry, but Owens has turned back to being a babyface again, and the reaction to him stunning Shane was incredible, to say the least.

This single visual of the heroic employee hitting his boss with a cool-looking move such as the Stunner, is what makes these two rivalries strikingly similar. Fans used to react with huge pops whenever Austin stunned McMahon, and it seems like the aura of the Stunner hasn't died down one bit. Giving the Stunner to someone like Owens was the best move WWE could possibly make. All we need now is for the company to steadily push him as a legit anti-hero.
