10 WWE Stars Whose Best Match Came Against Bret Hart

10. Yokozuna

As a near-600lb sumo wrestler whose finishing move was to thrust himself off the middle rope and drop his full body weight on your chest, Yokozuna was certainly effective in portraying the monster heel. However, that same size meant that he wasn’t necessarily known for turning out five-star performances.

Against Bret Hart, though, even the most miserly of critics would have to admit that we saw some pretty decent showings from the big man. All told, they were likely the best of his entire career.

Yokozuna and Bret faced off on a handful of occasions, with their first match arriving at WrestleMania IX. But it was their meeting 12 months down the line, at WrestleMania X, that will be far more fondly remembered. The duo went just over ten minutes as Bret reclaimed the WWF Championship, in what was either man’s second match of the evening (Bret having earlier put on a classic with his brother and Yokozuna defeating Lex Luger).

Plus, unlike their WrestleMania IX meeting, this one wasn’t tainted by a nine-second Hulk Hogan bout in the immediate aftermath.

Bret Hart vs Yokozuna at WrestleMania X was by no means one of Bret’s top matches, but you'd be hard-pushed to find a better Yoko bout.
