10 Superstars who never reached their full potential

#1 Owen Hart

Owen Hart

The saddest of all the wrestlers in this list, there is no one who can take anything away from what Owen Hart had already achieved in the field of wrestling. He may have been less famous than his brother Bret, but it was only by a little. He was one of the best technicians in the ring and his time with the Hart Foundation saw him achieve almost every possible honour in wrestling.

His match with his brother Bret, remains one of the best matches of all time that set a bar in wrestling. He unfortunately was never able to reach the heights Bret had reached due to a glass ceiling that he had to fight with from under his older brother’s shadow.

He passed away in 1999, in a tragic fall after a cable gave way lowering him from the ceiling of the stadium during a show. He fell chest first on the turnbuckle, and the footage of that part of the show was never aired, with Jim Ross instead talking about his sad passing instead, while barely being able to restrain himself from tears. It is sad to think what Owen might have achieved if he had not died so tragically.
