It seems obvious that they’re just making Bret Hart’s leg a target for the match so that he doesn’t have to bump on his back or head. Vince McMahon targets the leg for his offense, Hart overcomes, Sharpshooter. It gives them a target that won’t cause him the damage he’d get by bumping and him something to overcome in beating McMahon. This adds some element of doubt, even if Hart just comes out and takes a few shots.
What I’d love to see is Stone Cold Steve Austin make himself the referee for the match, then the audience doesn’t particularly have to pay attention to just Hart and McMahon as they’re watching what Austin will do too. I can just see McMahon tapping out like crazy, and Austin checking his watch and not calling for the bell so he gets a bit more.
