5 The Evolution of Owen Hart
Trending
Taking Owen Hart’s contributions to the company as a whole, he would normally appear much higher on these types of lists. However, in 1993 he was still very much finding his feet. He began the year pairing with Koko B. Ware as part of the tag team High Energy.
They wrestled fairly well together, but they looked like two guys who turned up to a fancy dress party just a little too late to grab the last available Aladdin costume. Not good at all! When you consider what Owen Hart would eventually become, I think it’s important to realise that 1993 was the year to start it all off.

In one of the most disappointing Survivor Series events of all time, the one saving grace of the show was that it led to 1994’s principle feud, Owen against his big brother Bret. Owen was furious with Bret for accidentally distracting him during their 4 on 4-elimination match with Shawn Michaels and his Knights (oh dear God, the Knights!).
Subsequently, Owen was the only Hart brother of the four to be eliminated. This sparked jealousy and resentment and culminated in one of the most compelling feuds the company has ever seen. Once again, thanks 1993!
