He's responsible for a true classic when it comes to dumb WWF/WWE feuds. Nasty, thieving and foul pirate Jean-Pierre Lafitte stole Bret Hart's favourite leather jacket in 1995, and he wouldn't give it back. If Bret wanted to see his prized possession again, then he'd have to beat Jean-Pierre in a standard wrestling matches with rules.

OK, this writer is making light of the whole situation, but it'd be impossible not to. '95 gets a lot of flak from wrestling fans looking back. Rightly so, in some cases, but there's something so simple and endearing about the thought of Hart getting all wound up about a jacket. Being fair, he explained that it held sentimental value in promos.

Bret and Lafitte went on to work some fun matches against one another. Whilst they definitely gelled in-ring, fans just couldn't get over the purpose of their feud. It was difficult to care much about Hart's entrance attire - excellently-adorned shoulder pads or not.
