10 Things You Didn't Know About Bret Hart

2. Bret Hart Is The First WWE Wrestler To Capture The Triple Crown Twice

Counting both the WWE and World Heavyweight title, and both sets of Tag titles, a total of 26 men have held the WWE Triple Crown (either World and either Tag title, plus the Intercontinental). At one time, it was a rarer feat; by 1992, only one man (Pedro Morales) had ever held all three belts. Hart became the second Triple Crown winner in 1992, and became the first to hold each belt twice come 1994. By the summer of 1990, Hart was a two-time WWF Tag Team Champion, and as of WrestleMania VIII, he'd held the Intercontinental belt twice. Hart won his first WWF Championship in the fall of 1992, and followed up by winning it a second time at WrestleMania X, giving him six unique reigns before his 37th birthday.
