13. Bret Hart Makes His First Appearance On Raw In 12 Years - Raw (Jan 4th, 2010)
It was over 12 years since Bret Hart appeared live on an edition of Monday Night Raw. Then he showed up on the January 4, 2010 episode to a hero's welcome. We couldn't believe it. The Hitman was back on the show that he helped make famous over a decade after getting screwed out of the company. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iGBVmmOpgxU Hart was never known for being the most energetic guy in WWE history especially after suffering from a stroke, but when he appeared in that ring on Raw that night it just felt so perfect. That crowd went wild for him while those of us at home loved the sight of the Hitman in the WWE right again. When he hugged Shawn Michaels and shook his hand it was an image we never thought we'd see yet it was so great that it was actually happening. Over the last four years he returned many times, but that night in Dayton was pretty special because it had been so long since he had seen him in the ring.
