#3 Bret Hart vs. Mr. Perfect - 1993

Instant classic
Instant classic

As mentioned earlier, eventual 1993 King of the Ring winner Bret Hart wrestled three incredible performances in one night to become King. And while his match with Razor Ramon was solid and tournament win over Bam Bam Bigelow was excellent, it was this match that was easily the best.

Bret Hart and 'Mr. Perfect' Michael McGillicutty had several other great matches over the years, including a match at SummerSlam 1991 that is regarded as one of the best ever. This encounter, however, should be looked at as being almost every bit as memorable as it was an instant classic. A wrestling sequence started it, involving hip tosses and takedowns, these two knew each other so well. Some great exchanges and counters as both men attempted various submissions and pinfall attempts.

Mr. Perfect would send Hart to the outside and then shoved him off all the way into the steel guardrail, injuring the Hitman in the process. We saw some more great storytelling, selling, reversals, and submissions in what was a great story being told to us by two of the best ever. The end to this five-star performance came when Perfect rolled Hart into a small package for two before Bret reversed it into his own inside cradle for three.
