10 Fascinating WWE SummerSlam 1992 Facts
2. Bret Came Up With The Unique Sharpshooter Spot At An Interesting Time
You never know where inspiration will strike. With the match against Davey Boy Smith at SummerSlam looming large, "The Hitman" was determined to help put together the best match of either man's career, and his mind raced with ideas for the occasion.
One of the most memorable moments of the match followed a double knockout spot. With both men lying prone, Hart managed to maneuver his leg up and over his brother-in-law, wrapping Bulldog's legs around his before flipping over and standing up, the Sharpshooter firmly applied.
Hart claims he came up with that spot while lying in bed at 3 AM one morning, and had actually woken up then-wife Julie to try it out. The fact that Bret managed to talk his groggy wife into getting out of bed, lying on the floor, and participating in his impromptu beta-testing surely takes a lot of patience and love. Makes one wonder if Matt and Nick Jackson's wives have ever been subjected to any superkick derivatives in the middle of the night.
