Yep. He had a 60 day non-compete clause, but could appear on TV straight away, just not in-ring. 

I think from memory there were a couple of weeks in a row where they effectively did the same back and forth promo with Flair.

There was and it was so bad. A low point seeing Flair do a rare forced, contrived promo like that. Then it was so predictable that they were just lining him up to lose to Bret because that’s what they did with him at that point.

The thing that always sticks in my brain - and I don't know if this has been mentioned yet - is, if Bret never gets screwed out of the title, Owen is likely still alive today.

Absolutely.

Further down the rabbit-hole of unintended consequences, one could theorize that Bret staying alters the timing of the chain of events that leads to HHH's 1999 push and storyline pairing with Stephanie (which leads to their actual relationship/marriage/kids).
