Born On This Day: Bret "Hitman" Hart, July 2, 1957
The Excellence of Execution celebrates his birthday today. Bret is a Canadian writer and retired professional and amateur wrestler, best known for his work in World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) and its previous incarnation, the World Wrestling Federation (WWF), and World Championship Wrestling (WCW). His moniker was "The Pink and Black Attack", in reference to his ring attire. Hart competed as both a villain and a fan favorite during his professional wrestling career and is widely regarded within the industry as one of the greatest professional wrestlers of all time. Hart held thirty-two championships in various promotions during his professional wrestling career, and is recognized by WWE as a seven-time World Champion: a five-time WWF Champion and two-time WCW World Heavyweight Champion, and the second WWF Triple Crown Champion. Also a five-time WCW/WWE United States Champion (his four WCW reigns being the most in the history of the organization), he is tied for most reigns in history.[18] In addition to championships, he is the 1994 Royal Rumble co-winner (with Lex Luger), and the only two-time King of the Ring in WWE history, having won the 1991 tournament and the first King of the Ring pay-per-view in 1993. Hart was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2006 by former on screen rival Stone Cold Steve Austin. One of his favorite quotes was, I'm the best there is the best there was and the best I'll ever will be. Bret Hart was born in Calgary, Alberta, Canada
