I'm a huge Bret Hart fan. He was outstanding in the ring, genuinely incredible. He knew everything that made wrestling amazing. Yes at times he is full of himself but he always performed unlike any other.
A self obsessed perfectionist vs a drug fuelled ego driven dickhead - it makes for a compelling story.
And to quote Punk from his Colt podcast, "there is nothing wrong with being bitter". And I agree, it just takes time to know how to deal with those feelings.

Well see, how is Cass supposed to get the Universal title if he's on SmackDown?
Minus the Dudley's, I still think that's too many teams for a 2 hour show. They should be on RAW while the cruiserweights are on Smackdown.
Oh well.
So Charlotte attacks and handcuffs Vince Russo at The Great American Bash 2000. Who knew?
Ric's wife doing the slow-mo crotch chop while blissfully grinning is amazing.

The roster in 1995-1996 hated Shawn, not Bret, for good reason. Yokozuna and 'Taker had their own crew to counter the Kliq and their backstage politics, for good reason.
That isn't even getting into the later stuff, like pissing off The Rock and ensuring they never work together.
Shawn must have been deep in Vince's ear because looking back I have no idea how Shawn managed to keep his job

I think Vince overlooked a lot that HBK did.
In regards to Shawn being a Mr. Difficult why the hell did he throw a tantrum and refuse to lose to Davey Boy at the UK One Night Only PPV?
The euro belt existed for Davey, he even promised a victory to a dying person, only for Shawn to change it all at the last minute. Only to then throw it away.
Royal Rumble 98 felt like karma catching up with Shawn.

6 men title lmfao
Only thing that Rivals documentary with Shawn and Bret taught me is that Bret's perfected dark humor. He was talking about parachuting in on Titan Towers and lighting them up, he was being all dark while smiling in general.
Since then I've noticed Bret always brings out a gun reference. Funny considering Shawn's the hunter of the two.

Data West spotted, top-right corner.
Its a good question, and one that should still be asked in WWE arenas today.

Bret grew up in the dungeon. He's a shooter.
ask alcoholics and users at the rehabilitation center what bitterness can do to a person. It is absolutely destructive. It eats at people day after day until your dead. punk still hasn't dealt with his parents or his family that's why he relates, but any counselor or therapist worth his salt will tell you it's one of the worst things an adult can brush off. Bitterness doesn't help the person or the people he's bitter at.
Bret was my favorite wrestler, then I grew up and realized, we are all pretty crappy individuals. The thing that helped me see through the facade was realizing just how full of himself he ALSO was. He was just like the CLIQ. Deciding who he wanted to lose against, what city, what time and who OWED him credit and reverence. He's the Al Gore of WWE, he invented every great concept but Vince stole.
I mean think about it, this dude took like 20 years to admit he cheated on his wife. I was 13 when I saw Beyond The Mat and even I could tell he was banging Sunny

I don't remember their being a tantrum but Shawn said it would make him an uber heel if he were to go into Davey's home town and defeat him. Davey was supposed to win the title back but you know after Montreal the rest was history.

Family crotch chops, brought to you by Castrol GTX
No wonder Charlotte's the face of WWE's women's division...
Here is WWE 2K17 Asuka entrance:

Jbl and Cole call a match in the full sail with the term diva still alive. At least they call it the women's title.

Modern WWE's camera work of the exact same thing would have probably zoomed in and out 4 times and cut to different angles at least twice

Watching the Punk show. The comic book store tried to bury him.

Hopefully.
Look at how real this on camera feud was between Bret and Shawn.
http://youtu.be/XEOfcwy7f8s
Bret: I don't like him. I don't trust him and I don't believe him. I don't believe in anything about the guy. He's a phony piece of shit.
Shawn: I don't obsess like you do. I do this because I like it. You do it because in your mind, mark man, you really think all of this is yours!
Shawn calling Bret a mark on TV, lol. Before the Montreal Screwjob even where he really proved himself a mark.

Do they not have character specific dialogue or are they just not showing it? I haven't played one of these things in years.
