Bret Hart Names Current Talent He Would Pick To Wrestle Now

Bret Hart is considered one of the greatest wrestlers of all time, although his career was cut short due to injury, and subsequently, many potential dream matches never got to take place. And now, during an interview with The Wrestling Classic , the seven-time World Champion has named fellow WWE Hall Of Famer Rey Mysterio as the opponent he would have liked to wrestle against but didn’t.

“If I could pick one guy, it would be Rey Mysterio. I always forget Rey Mysterio, but I think Rey Mysterio is one of the greatest wrestlers of all time. Like, he’s right up there as the best there is, best there was, best there ever will be. He’s really good. He’s really special. Nobody can do what Rey Mysterio does.”

While Hart’s full-time career ended in 2000 due to having suffered a severe concussion during a match with Goldberg, he would return to the ring a decade later. However, due to his health, he couldn’t take bumps, which resulted in most of his matches being short. Still, it did allow him to share a ring with talents he hadn’t previously worked with, which included a six-man tag where he teamed with Mysterio and Edge against Alberto Del Rio, Cody Rhodes, and Drew McIntyre on a house show in Turkey.
