It should come as no surprise that both Bret and Owen Hart are listed here. After all, both men were brothers and had grown up together. As a child, Bret was protective of his younger sibling, but the pair developed a close personal bond. Some of the Hart children didn't see eye-to-eye, but Bret and Owen were the best of friends. Inside the ring, they would also be the best of enemies. Owen needed a big feud to establish him as a singles star in the WWF. In early-1994, a storyline was started during which he turned on Bret, claiming that he was tired of living in his older brother's shadow. This led to one of the best WrestleMania openers of all time, at 'Mania X. Following that up, the pair had an awe-inspiring Steel Cage Match at SummerSlam the same year. Later, Bret would assess that neither Owen nor himself really needed a lot of planning any time they stepped foot inside the ring against the other. They knew the other man almost as well as themselves, meaning putting together a good wrestling match came easy. Watching their bouts, that definitely appears to be the case.
