Owen - Hart Of Gold DVD Review: 14 Things You Should Know

By Kenny McIntosh /

4. Owen Tales

Throughout the main feature and in the form of over 30 (!) extra stories, Owen Tales are short segments where various wrestlers look back on ribs that Owen pulled over the years. These are pretty light-hearted and it's difficult to not laugh and enjoy what a good guy he seemed to be.

One of my favourite stories (as told by Lex Luger, The Bulldog and Bret) is that Owen would be tagging with Yokozuna against Lex and Bulldog and after asking Lex to do a gorilla press, Owen would make himself dead weight so Luger couldn€™t lift him, then when Davey Boy tagged in he€™d take all the big moves he could extremely well, just to agitate Lex.

Whether it€™s phone calls pretending to be giving wrestlers free food or letting a bunch of farmyard animals into Vince€™s office so it€™d be covered in manure, Owen was always making people laugh and the wrestlers all seem to genuinely miss him and clearly loved being around him.
