Bret Hart isn't just a former WWE Champion - he's wrestling royalty. A worldwide sensation, Hart represented WWE as its top star around the globe in the mid-1990s, and a certain generation of wrestling fans still holds him in higher regard than just about any other grappler.

Many of us consider him the single greatest wrestler of all time.

None of that would matter to Kevin Owens, WWE's resident iconoclast. Owens debuted on the main roster with an attack on John Cena, and in his short time with the company, he's made a name for himself attacking legends and friends.

Sure, Hart is a fellow Canadian and a quintessential scientific wrestler, but Owens would attack him without remorse.

What "The Prizefighter" wouldn't count on, though, is that Hart would be willing to get just as vicious and violent as him. Despite Owens's size advantage, "The Hitman" would be more than happy to trade punches with him in a brawl that could easily turn bloody.

Owens's aerial abilities might throw Hart for a loop, but the former five-time WWE Champion would use his wrestling prowess to stay in the game, just as he always did.

The result would be a five-star contest, for sure.
