Holy fuck this was tough. I went with Bret and instantly regretted it. Both incredible in the ring though Bret's a little better. I prefer Punk's style though. Punk definitely takes it on the mic. Hart had more of a superstar quality though.
Ugh |

I don't really think this is very close at all but I have a "horrible feeling" about how this will go

Nah, I think Bret is probably gonna take this one. Maybe by double digits.

I think Bret is TERRIBLE. So this was easy for me. Bret is the harbinger of fail.

I know it's an unoriginal justification of voting for the Hitman, but he is "the best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be!"
Yes, Bret's career suffered with the move to WCW, but there is no doubting that Punk will be hard pressed to match the quality of memorable matches that Bret had in the WWF. Bret could work a top quality match with just about anyone, one of the most versitile workers in wrestling. Bret was awesome as both a face and heel (granted, when he was a "heel" with the new Hart Foundation anti-America angle, he was still a "face" to all of us in Canada ).![]()

Bret is far from my favorite, but he's easily one of the top ten greatest of all-time. In a decade, Punk very well could be up there but, for now, Bret takes it.

Bret easily. I always liked how he would call it THE Summerslam. So that's my reason.

I liked Hart but I was pretty upset that Luger didn't win the title at WM X.

My vote goes to Bret for now maybe if this poll took place several years from now my opinion could differ.

Hart was a great all-rounded. Punk is a one-note character.

Voted Punk because while Bret's had a wonderful career and is one of the best of all time overall he didn't have the crossover appeal I think Punk can down the line. 10 or 15 years down the line I think we'll see Punk's career rivaling if not surpassing Hart's. Also Punk is far better on the stick which helped in my decision as promo power is a huge part of being a success in professional wrestling and Bret really didn't have it.

While Hart has come across as bitter in post-Screwjob interviews, part of that may be due to selective quotation by interviewers. I'm also certain that Bret would have bumped to put over younger talent during his 2010 return if not for the mucky-mucks (thanks Scott Hudson) at Lloyds of London. He wrote a highly engrossing autobiography supported by an audio diary which he had the foresight to maintain during his WWE and WCW years. I actually felt for Bret when he described the looks of disappointment on the fans' faces when WCW had him turn heel yet again when the "nWo 2000" was beating on Terry Funk.
By contrast, Punk has done some dramatic things as well but seems a little "above" his situations; a big beatdown on Punk or some other kayfabe tragedy would elicit more pathos towards him and put him over the top as an authentic babyface on par with Rey Mysterio Jr. Or maybe I just have more sympathy for chronic whiners... oh, well. |

According to Hart's book, Luger also leaked his scheduled title win over Yokozuna while at the bar. McMahon found out and changed the result to a count-out win for Luger. Luger seems to take this in stride nowadays because he's focused more on religion and doesn't bodybuild anymore (now around 185 pounds). |

Bret Hart in his prime was awesome. The Sharpshooter was one of my favorite finishers.

This is a tough one in a sense I guess, Bret always had solid matches. Bret/Perfect Summer Slam 92, Bret/Owen WMX, Bret/HBK WMXII, Bret/Austin WMXIV are 5 of my all time favourites, and that's just off the top of my head. Add in his tag career too and he had some cracker bouts back in the day as well.
Yeah he may not have been the most charismatic, but in his prime he could make anyone have a good match. IMO |

I voted Punk, but I don't mind who wins this. I was a huge Bret mark in the 90's, but sadly, seeing as how I was a mark who cheered or booed for anything, I saw everything through a different perspective.
Over the last decade, Hart has mostly done nothing but whinge and bitch about people, whilst CM Punk has been fucking incredible. I enjoyed Punk as an indy guy, but ever since he turned heel in WWE back in 2009, he has been completely untouchable. So yeah, I voted for CM Punk, but it looks like Bret Hart will take this one. I have no problem with that. |

I voted Bret because I geniunely thought he'd need the votes, all I hear is unreasonable Bret hate on these boards despite the fact he was easily as good as HBK in his prime.
I love CM Punk though |

Not only that, but the last decade shouldn't really apply with regard to garnering a vote for Bret anyway - he wasn't even an active wrestler within that period of time. |

Punk could further catch up with Bret if he says, "Who are you to doubt Curtis Hawkins / Tyler Reks / Yoshi Tatsu?!?"

Bret Hart
Punk is good, and I enjoy his skills, however, he isn't on the same level as Bret. |
