10 Under-Appreciated WWE September PPV Matches

10. Bret Hart Vs. Jean-Pierre LaFitte (In Your House 3)

Despite taking place in a down period in the company and having an abysmal build, Bret Hart's match with Jean-Pierre LaFitte showed that the most skilled workers could make anyone look credible, and that any match could be a thrilling watch.

LaFitte (played by former Quebecer Pierre, AKA Carl Ouellet) had the absolutely inspired gimmick of an evil pirate who stole things. What's sad is that this gimmick was hardly WWE's most cartoon-y creation in 1995. Also sad about 1995 was that while Kevin Nash was consistently stinking up the main events as WWE Champion, Bret Hart was forced into meaningless feuds with the likes of Jerry Lawler, Issac Yankem, and, of course, LaFitte. Their match at In Your House 3 came about because LaFitte, I kid you not, stole Bret's jacket, and Bret was cross about it.

However, Bret, being the professional he was, shouldered the feud with gusto, and delivered a surprisingly good match with LaFitte. Featuring a variety of high spots and near-falls, the match is a textbook case of Bret making any competent worker appear on his level. Even at a time when crowd attendance and engagement were at all-time lows, the crowd were into this bout in a big way, legitimately believing LaFitte was close to defeating Hart.

All in a day's work for the 'Excellence of Execution'.
