Mr. Mojo Risin Posted March 30, 2016 Report Posted March 30, 2016 Some might think it's blasphemy, but I always believed Owen was better than Bret. Had he lived, he most likely would've surpassed Bret in wrestling history as the best Hart if he wanted to. As someone mentioned in an earlier post, it was a just job though and he seemed to be settled on cruise control, whereas Bret had the drive. Bret vs. Owen at Wrestlemania is still one of my favorite 'Mania matches. Owen's facials post match are priceless. Quote
Matt Farmer Posted April 6, 2016 Report Posted April 6, 2016 Owen was one of those guys like Sayama who was a really early tape trader favorite. When Owen first started with WWF in 1988 as a full timer. The tapes from house shows that aired on satellite of local cable networks became a big deal on the tape trader scene. It may have been the only time matches of Barry Horowitz were soaght after like those were. Quote
Lee Casebolt Posted April 20, 2016 Report Posted April 20, 2016 The Dungeon match with Shamrock is maybe the best possible Attitude Era match. If you were genuinely trying to make compelling "Action Adventure TV" with three minute wrestling matches, that would be model. Quote
Gutenberger Posted May 13, 2016 Report Posted May 13, 2016 I've always found Owen to be more interesting character-wise and in facial expressions. I'm also, 'til this day, more entertained by his matches than Bret's. That SummerSlam match from '94 was one of my early favorites, and still has a very special place in my heart. Quote
skipps04 Posted May 13, 2016 Report Posted May 13, 2016 The 1994 King of the Ring match with the 123 Kid was one of the best sub 4 minute matches ive ever seen. With the sick baseball slide into Kid in the beginning to the blistering pace they kept, what a great match Quote
El-P Posted May 13, 2016 Report Posted May 13, 2016 I realized today that I can't hear "enough is enough" without thinking "and it's time for a change". Thanks Owen. Quote
gordi Posted May 15, 2016 Report Posted May 15, 2016 And I can't hear "kick your leg" without thinking "out from under your leg." I also can't eat a chicken nugget without thinking, "I'm NOT a NUGGET!" Quote
El-P Posted May 15, 2016 Report Posted May 15, 2016 And I can't hear "kick your leg" without thinking "out from under your leg." Yeah, that one too. It's crazy. Quote
