Wrestlers greatest matches. #1 Bret Hart

[Dave Youell]

In a similar style to RTW, vote on what you think was Bret's best match, i'll do this every couple of days and basically copy the order from RTW so you know what's coming.

I vote for the Iron Man Match against HBK

[Shaner]

i vote for the Iron Man Match aswell!

[Mike the Metal Ed]

Iron Man.

[Shaggy]

I would have to go with everyone so far......

even though he lost the match the Iron Man match was one of his best matches he ever did

so

Iron Man Match is my vote

[The Gooch]

I'm going with his match with Davey Boy at Wembley.

[Zen v.W.o.]

Damn, that's tough to vote on. I like his matches for different reasons.

On a pure wrestling basis I really liked Bret/Owen and Bret/Davey.

WM13 incorporated some of the best storytelling of all time if not the best. His match with Austin was greatness. His cage match was great as well, but I dont want to vote on matches that involve gimmicks.

I dont know, Bret really loves his match with the Bulldog at SummerSlam and I do myself so that could be my pick.

But I'll go with Owen at WMX, as that is the match I have most recently been into.

[Xero]

The Iron Man Match.

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

WM 13 with Austin.

[NoRoolz]

I gotta go with the majority and say Iron Man Match.

[SuperSlim]

WM XIII vs. Austin. my fav. match of all time. :D

[FakeLaser]

vs. Owen Hart, Wrestlemana X

Greatest match of all time.

Honorable mentions:
vs. Owen Hart, Summerslam 1994
vs. Steve Austin, Wrestlemania XIII
vs. Davey Boy Smith, Summerslam 1992
vs. Mr. Perfect, Summerslam 1993
vs. Chris Benoit, Owen Hart Tribute Match
vs. Shawn Michaels, Wrestlemania XII

Yeah, basically any match he's ever been in has been good.

[Dave Youell]

Umm i think Perfect Was 1991

[FakeLaser]

Yeah good call on that, Bret Hart wouldn't be wrestling for the IC title in 1993.

1993 he lost to Lawler by DQ if I remember correctly.

[crash99]

I vote for Bret/Owen from WM X

[Mr. JL]

Bret Hart V. Stone Cold - Submission match @ Mania 13

[Innovator]

Bret/Owen, just a solid match

BTW, damn you for meeting Raven. You even have the no smile pose down like him

[Eunos]

Vs Owen Hart at WM10

[Vastardikai]

Vs. Mr. Perfect, Summerslam '91.

That was the match that turned me away from the Bigger is better mentality.

[RemyRed]

vs. Chris Benoit at WCW Mayhem;World Heavyweight Championship tournament final.

[John la Rock]

vs Austin - Wrestlemania 13

so many classics though

[The Show Off]

Bret Hart versus Owen Hart (Summerslam 1994)

[DaveBrawl]

vs. Chris Benoit - Owen Hart tribute match. But any match he was in was almost assured to be great.

[Anybody Thrilla]

I'm going with his match with Davey Boy at Wembley.

Yes. Yes, yes, YES. I'm voting on this one, too. This match had it all.

[wrestlingking]

Vs Austin WM 13
So much emotion and the end of the match changed wrestling forever

[Mr. Nerfect]

It's a toss-up between vs. Owen Hart at WrestleMania X and vs. Mr Perfect at Summerslam '91.

I know the events at which those matches took place, so they must have something special going for them. Both were technically great, and both had emotion pouring through them. If I had to pick one though, I'd pick his match against Owen, simply because Owen actually went over, and his win was amplified as Bret Hart won the WWE Championship that same very night.

BTW, we should get some guys to upload some of these matches or something. Maybe just the winning match, then have a "Best of the Month" thing going after four guys have been done.

[McLegend]

Bret vs Austin at WM 13

[RP]

Here's a curveball. Hart v.s Piper Wrestlmania 8. Maybe not the best, but worth a mention.

[GrandTheftGamer]

The return of Bret Hart!

Well, I did like the Iron Man Match, so that's my current vote.

[Hitman84]

Bret Hart vs Mr Perfect - King of the Ring semi-final 1993

[Zen v.W.o.]

Good idea. I could upload every single match nominated so far in this thread.

[RottingFreak]

Bret "Hitman" Hart vs Stone Cold Steve Austin @ Wrestlemania 13 gets my vote. Now THAT was a classic fellas.

[Bad Company]

Chris Benoit, Owen Hart Tribute Match

[Disturbed316]

God, there are too many of them.

[Crashnburn]

vs. Steve Austin, Wrestlemania XIII

[Xerzes]

vs. Steve Austin, don't remember date. House show. Made his greatest match ever because I was there watching it, and I am awesome. Go me!

[The Highlander]

Bret vs Owen, WM10, easily.

[Sepholio]

Iron man match. Bret v Austin at WMXIII and Bret v Owen at WMX are right there with it though.

[The Fugitive]

I've got reservations about this RTW-spinoff, but nevertheless, I vote for Bret vs Austin, WM13.

[The One]

Bret "Hitman" Hart vs. "The British Bulldog" Davey Boy Smith - Summer Slam 1992 for the Intercontinetnal Championship!

[Mr. Nerfect]

I just watched Bret Hart vs. Owen Hart and Bret Hart vs. The British Bulldog again, and I must say my favourite is by far the former. Hart vs. The Bulldog was good, and certainly worth the watch, but it was not great in the same sense Bret vs. Owen was.

It may be just me, but Bret vs. Owen told a story within its bell periods, and I found the match just that much better paced, and it really took off well. Bret Hart vs. The British Bulldog was good, but it seemed to be a fairly robotic match, with neither guy really going far and beyond to tell a story in the match.

Both are good picks, and I cannot fault either one, though.

[Chuck Jones]

My favorite Bret Match is probably Bret Hart vs Owen at Wrestlemania 10.

An honorable mention would also be Bret vs. Piper, or any of his matches with Perfect.

[Just John]

The Iron Man Match. What I liked about that match was that it lasted a whole hour and not at any point did I get bored - thats an acheivment

[James Steele]

My Vote: Ironman Match- vs. Shawn Michaels .:. WrestleMania XII

Runner-Up: "I Quit" Match- vs. Steve Austin .:. WrestleMania XIII

[KillerWolf]

[Zen v.W.o.]

vs. Austin @WM 13.

WM8, and yeah it was a good match, probably Piper's best wrestling match as well.

[YOUR Hero]

Owen beating Bret.

[crash99]

WM13 vs. Austin gets my vote.
