10 Fascinating WWE SummerSlam 1990 Facts
3. The Hart Foundation Debuted Their Jackets On This Show
Prior to SummerSlam 1990, the only special piece of attire either Hart Foundation member wore as part of their ring entrance was Bret Hart's wraparound Mylar sunglasses. That changed when the duo filed out of the entrance way for the Tag Team Championship match.
Weeks before SummerSlam, Hart remembers showing Neidhart a photo of a chimpanzee wearing an army jacket with adorned shoulder fringe, something akin to a Sgt. Pepper's coat. He told "The Anvil" that was going to be their new look come SummerSlam.
Those jackets added a bit of extra oomph to the Harts appearance, particularly Bret. That look would eventually give way to the leather jackets that would come standard for "The Hitman" in his prolific singles run to the top of WWE.
