Gotta respect Owen Hart and his skills, but he was never able to connect with a crowd like RVD did.

I don't know. Had Owen not passed away the way he did, I think he could have done a lot more in his career. I always enjoyed watching him wrestle especially against Bret. I gotta give this one to Owen.

Rob Van Dam. I expect this to be a tough match that could easily go either way.

I love RVD but I've never seen a Owen Hart match I didn't like. RVD could be a selfish performer and just reel off a lot of his spots, Pin someone and leave. He shouldn't have beaten Foley really.

Once again: I love RVD but Owen all the way

He would've gotten even more, given that he was younger and a lot more talented than RVD was.

Both are great talents. Owen was better on the mic and had a better ground game. RVD is the better flyer (though Owen was great at that as well). I'm not a big vote for the dead guy person, but in this instance I do think Owen Hart is overall the Better Wrestler.

Watch an old ECW tape and then tell me Owen is better. You can't.

I'm not a "Hart" guy but Owen really could've been the guy IMO.

There's something to be said for the fact that outside of the obvious Hart connections, the WWF could never figure out what to do with Owen. All he did was bounce around from tag partner to tag partner with an occasional singles feud thrown in. Compare that to RVD who strictly through his in ring performance managed to steal the spotlight from Steve Austin.

But as for the claim that if I were to watch an ECW tape I couldn't say Owen was better, I'm not entirely sure that's true. I was a hardcore RVD mark during his ECW days but I don't think I could say anything he did was better than Owen's matches with Bret at WM 10 and SummerSlam 94.

Gotta think about this one.

Tough choice since Owen Hart could have easily been a top star similar to Bret Hart or maybe similar to Triple H since he was meant to have "The Game" gimmick initially. The fact he was the only Hart to not leave WWF right after Montreal might have helped him in the long run with maybe a world title opportunity or a couple reigns. I did like him when he was The Black Hart after winning the King of the Ring since he pulled it off so well.

In the end, going with RVD mostly because RVD had those 10 years that Owen wasn't able to have to develop into a great wrestler in both athletic ability and crowd pleasing. RVD was the only initial Invasion guy to be cheered by the crowd and should have been pushed much better than he was initially.

Owen barely edges RVD here in my opinion, Owen's match with Bret at mania 10 was just too good to not vote Owen in this situation

Feel free to correct me if I am wrong, but wasn't Owen the guy who broke Austin's neck?

Owen broke Austin's neck unintentionally, pretty much all injuries are unintentional, nut in defense of that, RVD is the king of working stiff in the ring. An example of this would be Survivor Series 2002 when RVD jumped off of one of the pods in the elimination chamber and landed knee first on Triple H's throat botching his five star frog splash.

Don't worry, Owen is square with the house again after WWE got him back back showing total carelessness of him by putting him in a piece of shit harness an hanging him 70+ feet in the air and letting him fall. Not saying WWE intended to kill him, but if you saw photos of the harness he wore and the rigging he was hooked up to, you would gasp.
