29 years ago today... Funny, I’ve been reading up about this time period recently. It’s crazy to think how shocking it was that Jake slapped Elizabeth, yet fast forward a few years and most fans wouldn’t bat an eyelid about man on woman violence in wrestling. |

21 years ago today...The kick that would ultimately end a legendary career Just horrible. An end to one of the great careers. I wonder if Hart had not been that injured would he have eventually returned to the WWE in the mid-00s when it seemed he and the WWF were starting to mend fences. Some feuds he could have had at the time for a proper final year; Angle, Jericho, RVD, with his final match being a three-way match between him, HBK and Vince, with Bret getting the win and walking off into the sunset. |

Yeah just a crummy way for his career to end during that time period.Imagine if he did return to the WWE after WCW and had a proper ending.Him and Angle man what couldve been.
But on the flip side though what a library of matches he has for us to watch over and over. Matches that will stand the test of time.

Matches that will stand the test of time.Yep, I consider him and HBK to be the best wrestlers (in-ring performance quality-wise) that I have ever seen. Bret it more the classical, mat wrestler, while HBK is more of the modern/up-tempo style. To me, these are my top 10 matches of Bret's, I could watch these over and over: 1. Austin - WM13 2. Perfect - SSL91 3. Bulldog - SSL92 4. HBK - SSE92 5. Perfect - KOTR93 6. Owen - WM10 7. Owen - SSL94 8. HBK - WM12 9. Piper - WM8 10.Diesel - SSE95 |
