Jack G. King's 10 Greatest Wrestlers Of All Time
7. Bret Hart
Of everybody on this list, Bret Hart could feasibly be regarded as the weakest on the mic. At the tail-end of his WWF run, The Hitman's promos reached a decent peak, but talking was always regarded as a limited part of his game.
Maybe this is all relative, because inside the ropes, Bret was incredible - a man good enough to drag his promotion out of its post-Golden Age lull and into the New Generation (even if it took Vince and co. a little while to realise).
Despite his striking appearance and iconic theme music, the Canadian is also one for the purists, a real technician's technician. Few have demonstrated such flawless expertise in the ring, as timeless classics with Steve Austin, Shawn Michaels, the British Bulldog and brother Owen prove.
Before, I talked about how The Rock's (perhaps unfairly) perceived lack of substance was overshadowed by his blinding charisma. Bret can be seen as quite the opposite; he quietly went about his business, and that business was being one of the greatest of all-time.
