A Beginner's Guide To WWE's Netflix Era

Being a one night only, eight wrestler knockout tournament King Of The Ring is a sound idea on paper. The issue occurs when you ask two participants to wrestle on front of a live crowd three times in quick succession. Even the best wrestlers on the planet have a certain template they stick to and going through that for three matches runs the risk of wearing out an audience. Enter Bret Hart at King Of The Ring 1993 as the man who would fly in the face of that theory.

Bret has always been widely regarded as one of the best in the business and the tournament section of this show is the man himself demonstrating his ability to have three very different styles of match and keep the whole thing interesting viewing. Bret runs between matches with opponents far bigger to a meeting with a foe who possessed an equal amount of pure wrestling ability to him. It's Bret's performance that makes this show so watchable. 

Away from the tournaments brackets there's Hulk Hogan defending his WWF Championship against Yokozuna. Hogan hadn't really been involved in the build up to the match as he more often than not sent his promos in from the set of 'Thunder In Paradise' and he wouldn't be much longer in the WWF. Whilst the match itself isn't much to write home about the final moments are a shining examples of Hogan unwillingness to put his opponents on any kind of pedestal.
