Will you take Reigns over Bret? I was saying your use of "Wembley vs Punk's one buyrate" to determine who was better is flawed.

Nah, Bret over Reigns. I was just referencing that as one aspect of their game. I think I was severely overrating Punk at the time. I didn't care as much about him as I wanted to even then.

Fair point about Wembley. Bulldog does not draw against Berserker though lol.
I will say this, Bret did draw the highest two wrestlemania main events from 91-97. and it wasn't Wrestlemania 12. it was 9 and 10. You could argue the Hogan factor for 9. I was actually surprised buy this 430,000 for 9 420,000 for 10 WM 7 did 400 WM 8 did 390 Maybe people really liked Yoko and Bret |

That kind of goes back to what i was saying earlier, i really believe if your name wasn't Hogan, Austin and mayyyyybe Rock, you needed other guys/matches/storylines on the card to help you draw.
In my opinion Austin and Hogan could of drawn wrestling a broom stick while the rest of the card was midgets. At least when they were hot. Rock's a maybe. And this is just WWF. Obviously Flair in NWA would be another. |

SummerSlam '94 also did much better than SummerSlam '93. 50,000 buys better. The Taker/Faker bullshit was in the main, but Bret was the WWF Champion going against Owen in the cage.

This is a wrestling website and there's a poster named after Nielsen's character. There's no poster named "Bret Hart". Point Nielsen.

I think we can all agree that Leslie Nielsen would have been a better World Champion than David Arquette.

Yes, Bret Hart publicized backstage drama like few wrestlers have done since.
He was a primary motivator behind Barry Blaustein's year-2000 film Beyond the Mat. In this sense, Bret could be seen as a precursor to Total Bellas, Hogan Knows Best, and other pro-wrestling reality programming. Outside wrestling, Bret sired Blade, Jade, and Alexandra, so "there's that." |
