10 Amazing Wrestling Villains Hidden In Plain Sight
7. A Fed Up Bret Hart Had Been Threatening To Fully Snap For Months Before 'Mania 13
WrestleMania 13 will forever be remembered as the night two legends pulled off the mother of all double-turns.
In truth, though, Bret Hart could've likely snapped on a number of occasions in the lead-up to the 'Showcase of the Immortals'.
Back at that year's Royal Rumble, the 'Hitman' was within touching distance of winning his second over-the-top-rope epic, only for 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin to sneak back into the contest, after his elimination was missed by officials, and dump his rival out of the ring for the shocking victory.
And even when Hart managed to somehow get his hands on the WWE Championship as the 'Show of Shows' edged closer, various folks intervening with his matches against Sid in the coming weeks all led to the icon unleashing an explosive worked-shoot promo on WWE management and Vince McMahon on the Raw before 'Mania.
This emotional babyface had been threatening to turn his back on both the company and the fans who had been happily watching him get screwed out of the gold for months. And by the time the dust had settled on 'Mania 13, a fed up villain was finally ready to give up trying to please an American audience who would rather cheer on 'Rattlesnakes' and 'pretty boys'.
