Tough one here. I'm sure a lot of people are going to justify an argument for Bret and I can understand why. He's the Excellence of Execution. The best there is, best there was, and best there ever will be. He is one of the greatest of all time in the ring. So sure, I could completely understand anyone's argument for Bret, but he shouldn't go over here.
Both were horrible draws, both were about the same on the mic, and both were comparable in the ring. HBK might have a slight edge in the ring but it's not by much. Where this really starts to go HBK'S way is when we look at them through kayfabe goggles. HBK beat Hart in the most important matches they had. In the main event of WM 12 and at Survivor Series '97. When stakes were on the line and both men were in their primes, HBK won. Plus this match isn't in Canada so HBK would win here too.
Vote HBK.
