Better Wrestler #164

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Brothers. Rivals. Teammates. Canadians. Folks, if you didn't see this matchup coming, you either haven't been paying attention or you really suck at seeing things coming. Either way, it should be a great battle.

Better Wrestler All Time Records (http://tpww.net/forums/showthread.php?t=102087)

[The Mackem]

Owen was great and there was a point after Bret left for WCW where I thought he was poised to establish himself amongst the best but I never rated him above Bret when he was alive and I don't see why I should since he died.

[The Mackem]

LOL originally took it that both pictures were of one putting the other in a sharpshooter. Then I thought, damn, Owen doesn't half look like Hunter.

[Spaff]

Bret was the best.

[Ermaximus]

Ya know, I have mad respect for anyone who comes out of the dungeon and at the same time have always thought Bret was the goods, but to be quite frank, I've always been a bigger fan of Owen.

[Biggz]

Bret but Owen comes in a very close 2nd.

[VSG]

Bret is having a spectacular run into HoF round!

[Wishbone]

gotta go with Bret here

[The Pope]

Bret Hart

[The Gold Standard]

Bret is 100% better than Owen

[dhellova guy]

I voted for Owen, and heres why:

Bret is a slightly better mat wrestler then Owen, but Owen had a better aray of moves then Bret. Owen could mat wrestle, and he could go to the air. But the deciding factor to me was that Owen had more charisma then Bret. Loved them both though.

[Rammsteinmad]

Loved them both back in the day, but went with Bret mostly for nostalgic reasons.

[jskinnyg]

I thought they were equal on the mat, but clearly Owen had the better personality & mic skills... Gotta go with the underdog OWEN!

[XCaliber]

Gave Owen an 8 and Bret a 9 in the rank a wrestler polls so yeah there close but The Hitman comes out on top his matches were undeniably better by a fair margin.

[Haze]

Had to go with Bret on this round.

Owen was fantastic, no doubt about that. But Bret is one of those legends who is just on a whole other level.

I think Owen had limitless potential to become one of the greatest, but sadly he was lost before he truly had a chance to shine.

[Nicky Fives]

BOO!!! This is not fair...... Owen is my favourite of all-time, so I had to vote for him......

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

I think Owen brought more to the table with his high flying ability along with the great ring ability that his brother also possessed.

I also think that Owen brought more emotion his his performances and Bret was little bit more of a technician then a showman.

[Majunior]

Owen, being my favorite wrestler of all time, got my vote.

Just as good on the mat, better diversity in his style (some high flying skills!), and far more charisma coupled with far superior mic work.

Owen was always better than his brother.

[Joesgonnakillyou]

Can't believe people are saying Owen had more charisma. Bizarre.

Bret is better but I love them both. Owen could have beaten 90% of all wrestlers.

[TannerLittleton]

Bret.

[Emperor Smeat]

Bret Hart although to be fair Owen career was cut way too short before he had a chance or opportunity to be a in the main event scene for long periods of time like Bret was in the WWF and early Attitude Era.

Loved Owen's Black Hart heel character after he won the King of the Ring and his different way of doing the Sharpshooter. I also loved the whole Canada vs USA feud between Bret and HBK because depending on where RAW was being held, the heel-face roles would be reversed without any need for storyline reasons.

[BizarroKing]

Owen is great, but Bret is just slightly better. Still a shame Owen never officially won the WWE title and the closest time he actually did, the decision was reversed.

[Jeritron]

I thought Owen was great, but this is fairly easy for me.

[Seth82]

gotta go with Owen

he had such amazing charisma and very entertaining

[Schlomey]

I voted Owen.

While Bret had the better career this is for who is the better wrestler...and for my money I prefer Owen Hart's offensive maneuvers.

[RiX1024]

Sorry Owen fans this goes to Bret.
