Let us sum up everything you need to know in one nice, neat sentence: He’s the best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be. Any questions? We didn’t think so.

No wrestler, past or present, displayed a more flawless technique than Bret the Hitman Hart, hence his nickname the Excellence of Execution. Oh, and of course, there are the seven World Championships and the fact he held titles in five different decades. You could chalk it up to wrestling being the Hart family business since legendary patriarch Stu, or his early training in Olympic-style wrestling, or just his sheer talent. Pay homage.
