Would any one else place the Survivor Series match above the Wrestlemania 13 match? Yes the WM match had better heat and more mark out moments with the great way the slow double turn happened in the course of the action, but I think the SS match was a better pure wrestling match between to fantastic workers. I like the Survivor Series match better as well. I haven't seen any of his Hart Foundation matches mentioned but I really liked the ones against the Bulldogs, the Brainbusters and the Rockers. The matches against the Killer Bees and Rougeau Brothers were good as well.

vs. Shawn Michaels at Survivor Series 97. *runs* Only joking Actually, before you-know-what, it was a fantastic match. Personally, though, I'm gonna go against the grain and pick Bret vs. Diesel at the Royal Rumble. Sure, lots of interference, but Bret truly showed his skill as a worker carrying Big Sexy to what ended up being only a handful of three- to four-star matches. (and I rarely use the "star" system.) I'm partial to Bret/Diesel at Survivor Series '95 and about any match he had with The Undertaker. Looks like I have backup ...

Yes I would. To me, the Survivor Series match was a perfect match. I prefer straight singles matches to gimmick matches as a whole, and those two worked so believably with each other that they managed to make a match like that look like a very real, continuous fight. That's my favorite Bret Hart match.

It wasnt his best match but when he won the title from Diesel with the small package at Survivor Series 95 was one of my all time mark-out moments. I knew he was gonna get jackknifed and pinned and then 1, 2, 3!

It's so hard to pick just one! The man easily has one of the best careers in terms of solid wrestling matches.
I'd have to go with vs. HBK @ WrestleMania XII (but with his King of the Ring '93 match against Mr. Perfect in a close second).

Bret vs. The British Bulldog @ In Your House 5: Season's Beatings.
I really don't like the Summerslam match they had all that much, in fact its one of the Bret matches I go out of my way to avoid. I dunno, I just don't like it.
the IYH 5 match however I can watch over and over again, and its not just because Bret bled buckets either. Both guys were at their very best here, and it shows. Its sad this match is as forgotten as it is because even though there was some storyline involved, the WWF Championship was the only thing that mattered in this match. Both guys absolutely wrestled their hearts out here. The pacing was good, the wrestling was great. Even the atmosphere was awesome.
So despite all the other great Bret matches on bigger and more remembered events, this is THE match for me when it comes to Bret Hart. It might not be a popular opinion, but its what I believe.

I must be the only person on the board who has never seen his match with Owen at WM X. I need to check that out sometime. However my top five (since I'm put on the spot):
WM 13. Survivor Series 1996. WrestleMania IX doesn't get a lot of love because Bret lost on shady terms, but he carried Yokozuna to a watchable match.
His Royal Rumble appearance in 1988 is a top five from me, just how Vince pushed him as an announcer was a sign they had big things planned for Bret. "...and Bret Hart is STILL in there."
I also liked his WM IV battle royal appearance. Fans were cheering him already, just pretty much made it official with Bad News "turning" on him at the end.

There are many, but as part of the Hart Foundation, it would be 2 out of 3 falls v Demolition at Summerslam 90, and solo it would be vs Rowdy Roddy Piper at WM8.
The latter was the first full WWF wrestling match I ever saw so as such I have a great fondness for it beyond the fact it was awesome. (By the way - in case anyone was wondering which you no doubt weren't, I say first "full" match because I had a tape off a mate of WM8 but he missed the start of the show and only pressed record half way through the Undertaker v Jake Roberts match, completely missing HBK v El Matador and the LOD return).
