10. The Killer Bees Hated Working With Jim Neidhart
Back in the late-1980's, the then-World Wrestling Federation had an embarrassment of riches in the tag-team division. Looking at the 1987 Survivor Series an an example, there was one match that featured no less than 10 regular duos. That's 5 tandems on each side, showing how deep the tag leagues went in the company. On one side, The Killer Bees teamed with the likes of The British Bulldogs. On the other, The Hart Foundation were aligned with the likes of Demolition. Both The Killer Bees and The Hart Foundation had some classic confrontations over the years, many of which can be found on both the WWE Network and YouTube. However, even though the Bees liked working opposite Bret Hart, the same can't be said for Jim Neidhart. Both B. Brian Blair and 'Jumping' Jim Brunzell reportedly liked Neidhart behind the scenes, but they found him difficult to work alongside. Whilst Bret's smooth in-ring style and increased flexibility made him a dream to work opposite, Neidhart' thick frame and lack of movement was something Brunzell and Blair hated dealing with.
