5. The Hart Foundation Briefly Reunited In MSG
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjLWblyBa-M The WWFs big shows at Madison Square Garden were regularly broadcast on the MSG Network, which was only carried by television markets in the New York metropolitan area. After Wrestlemania 7, when the Hart Foundation lost the tag team titles to the Nasty Boys, the team amicably split up, with Bret embarking on his singles career and Jim Neidhart taking a shot at broadcasting the MSG televised events. At the June 3, 1991 event, with Neidhart on commentary, Howard Finkel announced some of the matches that would be taking place at the WWFs July 1 return to the Garden. He announced that the Nasty Boys would be defending the Tag Team Championship againstBret Hart and Jim Neidhart, The Hart Foundation! The Garden erupted, and Gorilla Monsoon and Bobby Heenan responded in shock while Neidhart gave his maniacal laugh. At the July 1 show, the Nasty Boys defeated the Hart Foundation by DQ after Bret Hart intercepted Jimmy Harts bicycle helmet and hit both Nasty Boys with it. The match aired on the July 29 edition of Prime Time Wrestling. That would be Bret and Jims last tag team match for six years.
