To many, Bret Hart is the very best wrestler to ever lace up a pair of boots. When it comes to selling and making this exposed, worked business look real, Bret is the greatest we've ever seen. Regardless of what went on elsewhere on the show, when Bret Hart stepped into the ring then all watching started to 'believe' again. Bret made wrestling real to so many, which is even more impressive given the cartoon nature of the business during the majority of the Hitman's WWF career. When the prayer-saying, vitamin-taking, steroid-pumping WWF days of Hulkamania came to an end, it was Bret who was charged with leading the "New Generation". Others would get their moments in the spotlight, but it always came back to the dependable excellence of execution. For in-ring psychology, Bret Hart is the benchmark for all who have come since, and he simply was what he said he was: the best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be.
