Bret Hart’s 1996-97 is one of the most fascinating things in all of wrestling to me so I could’ve probably listened to 10 hours of it if they made it

In terms of importance, that year throws Bret Hart into the stratosphere of "wrestler who changed pro wrestling history - but not in terms of being a draw."

It's why he will always be on the periphery of the GOAT talk even when you consider Hogan and Austin were bigger and better draws and The Rock developed eventual, greater, universal appeal.

In 1997, he is basically becomes the segue way between two generations of pro wrestling and wrestles the greatest math in pro wrestling history.

He's basically the wrestling version of Raging Bull. A film caught between two generations of cinema but through sheer artistry and force of will - you remember it as a seminal piece of art even though its sandwiched between bigger things.

BRET FUCKING HART!

Did not like the Janella/Omega match.

Went too long, and Omega should not be having extended 50/50 hardcore matches with a puss like Janella.

Every match in AEW is 50/50. Every guy on the roster is an all-time great and no match shall be less than 15 minutes.

Bret wasn’t going to be denied. His willpower was off the charts.

Angry Grandpa Bret gets a lot of heat these days (Nash CAN go to hell!!!!)

But it amazing to think that Austin/Bret was a throwaway match at Wrestlemania, only for Bret to turn it around and give Austin the ultimate rub, bulletproof his own career and basically bookend a pretty good rivalry into Frazier/Ali territory

When you take all things into consideration it really is Bret > Shawn. That’s why Bret has won 3 straight PWD polls against Shawn.
