#5. Bret Hart vs. Mr. Perfect (c) Intercontinental championship, SummerSlam 1991
While pro wrestling is a performance, and the most important aspect of any performance is to resonate with the audience, there's still something special about seeing competitors who are amazingly skilled at the technical aspect of sports entertainment.
If you were to make a 'top ten' list of the greatest technical wrestlers to ever lace up a pair of boots, two names would appear or near the top of the list: Bret Hart and Curt Hennig.

Both men have many similarities. They both come from famous wrestling dynasties. Bret Hart is the son of Canadian wrestling legend Stu Hart, and Curt Hennig is the son of the legendary Larry 'The Axe' Hennig.
When they were scheduled to face each other for Hennig's Intercontinental championship at SummerSlam in 1991, fans expected a real barn burner of a match and they were not disappointed. The bout is still held up as one of the greatest displays of technical wrestling ever captured on film--and it all happened at the Garden.
