Like Mr Perfect and Brutus Beefcake earlier in the night, The Hart Foundation were headed for bigger and better things than a midcard match after WrestleMania VI - and this banter squash over The Bolsheviks didn't need a single second longer than the 19 it received.

Bret in particular looked fired up as f*ck to impress his home country crowd as a total sh*tkicker. Ahead of their doubles title victory over Demolition at SummerSlam, Hart and partner Jim Neidhart couldn't have looked more prepared to reascend.

It begs a question why it took them so long to return to the top of the mountain, but that speaks mostly to the rich quality Vince McMahon had assembled for the A and B shows at the time. For a man that hated tag team wrestling, the Chairman was once amazing at booking it well.
