Bret “Hitman” Hart
Bret “Hitman” Hart could have been a successful wrestling superstar if he had not entered the industry when wrestling was regarded a boring sport. Fans will never forget his victory over Ric Flair at the 1992 WWE Championship; it was a pivotal encounter in the industry. He carried on the legacy left by Hulk Hogan. However, the same year he defeated Flair, he suffered an injury that forced him to retire as a professional wrestler.
