i disagree i think bret had great mic skills - he pissed america off with it..and his acting during his in-ring promos where more believable than the crap we see today..remember after WM13 his wicked promo then twisting hbk into a gay prezel on the ring post? Bret could cut a really good promo..well much better than a retard : thhhee...CHAMMMP..ISSSs... HERREEEe!

dear god..cena makes me wanna stab myself as punishment for watching shit like that

Bret had wicked mic skills. Just because they were different, that doesn't make them bad. Jake Roberts being a classic example. His promos helped build big matches because everything he said sounded like he 100% believed it.

Take a guy like BG James. Good on the mic. Charismatic dude. But his promos are comic. Nothing else at all. That doesn't make him better than a Bret Hart. Doesn't make him worse either.

I love Bret, he's my favorite of all time. That being said, I rank him number 2 all time behind Ric Flair.

The only person who can even come close to comparing to Bret Hart is Ric Flair. (I rank them 1 and 1a.)

No one else can even come close...even though Angle is #3.

Personally, I'd put Shawn Michaels, Steve Austin and Kurt Angle in front of Ric Flair.

A little overrated IMHO.

He was a good wrestler but not much of a talker..

I felt in the days of the Hart Foundation he carried the Matches but Neidhart carried the Promos.

Bret is my favourite wrestler of all time. I don't think it's too much of a stretch when he says that he's the Best there is, Best there was and the best there ever will be

wait, you're basing his mic stuff on his Hart Foundation days. He admitted on the DVD that exact thing you just said. He was so much better after that, especially when he went heel.

Bret had no mic skills? Shit just watch his work on the mic in 1997 and that proves you wrong. Watch some of his wcw promos and that proves that opinion wrong.

He was not so great in his earlier days but chalk that up to inexperience. Most people arent great right off the bat.

He definitely held his own and was one of the best the wwf had in his day on the mic. He could do 15 minute promos without having to resort to what a guy like HHH does.

The King of Marks does not have that much rep yet (10+)
When I first got into wrestling, I was a big Bret Hart mark and my friend was a big HBK mark. Even though I was young, Bret was the only face that I liked. He just seemed cool. All of his matches seemed epic, and when it built up to the Sharpshooter it seemed like the ultimate ending.

Looking back, I think that Bret Hart could've evolved into a more well-rounded performer. His promos weren't very good for years, but really picked up at the tail end of the WWF era and his stay at WCW. Bret's insistence on being a face limited his acting ability, which grew only when he switched to heel. In overall career, I think you have to say that Shawn Michaels is better. But had Bret Hart not been injured and able to wrestle for a few more years, I know that he could've truly gone down as the best there ever was.
