10 Best WCW Storylines Ever

10. Bret Hart Countering Goldberg's Spear With A Steel Plate

Nitro was in Toronto on March 29, 1999 with Canadian wrestling legend Bret Hart in the ring talking about how nice it was to be in a place where you get respect. He was clearly frustrated with things in WCW and talked about how people weren't giving him a fair shot. He made a lot of good points. That's when Bret called out Goldberg. Bret referred to him as "William Goldberg" and called him a chicken. He wanted to take him on right there. Of course the fans cheered that and it also helped that Hart was wearing a Toronto Maple Leafs jersey (Tie Domi), which if you know anything about hockey is the local sports team that is beloved. Goldberg got into the ring, stared at Bret and gave him his trademark Spear. The problem was that Goldberg didn't get up right after. We were so used to seeing Goldberg hit a Spear, then popping right up and hitting a Jackhammer. This time he stayed down. Hart ended up getting back up without any sign of injury, took off the jersey and Bret had a metal plate wrapped around his stomach. The metal plate knocked Goldberg out. Bret covered him, counted a pinfall of his own and then ended it by saying: "Hey Bischoff and WCW...I quit!" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zDOJdsABsVI Most of Bret's best moments were in WWE, no question about that, but the ovation he received that night was enormous. This one would have been higher up if they actually followed up the storyline at all, but in typical WCW fashion they really didn't do much with it. Part of the reason was because it happened two months before Owen Hart died and when Bret came back after that they weren't going to book him as a heel. Still, it would have been nice to see something happen with them.
