Bret ‘Hitman’ Hart (1978-2000)

Bret “The Hitman” Hart would have been more successful if he did not peak during a pretty boring time in the world of pro wrestling. His incredible win against Ric Flair during the 1992 WWE Championship was a pivotal moment in the industry. He had to carry the torch that Hulk Hogan left behind after that. Sadly, he was forced to retire earlier than expected when he suffered a concussion in 1999.
