    If bret hadn't left the wwe, then there wouldn't have been much of an attitude era to talk about. What made that era special was the austin-McMahon feud. The Mr. McMahon character was created from him screwing over bret. Shawn still wouldn't have been around because he would've still needed to take time off for his back. Bret was my favorite, and while it sucked what happened to him, it was the best thing for the company

    With Austin injured.... WrestleMania 2000 main event could have been bret hart vs the rock....that would have been epic
  • Bret stays, Shawn would of never gotten hurt. Heart foundation grows as well as DX a true war. I can see the two of them become two Conner stones. WCW would have been done much sooner. However this affects The Rock, Austin, and HHH and other rising stars. WWE roaster would have been too much for anyone to challenge.

    Imagine WM14 being Austin VS Hart with Tyson enforcing. My goodness that would have been a more epic main event than what we got with HBK's ego and injuries almost destroying it. It would have been a great 3rd act to their rivalry. Bret would have been more than willing to do the honours for Austin.
  • if bret had stayed you could of had bret hart vs kurt angle at wrestlemania 16

    1. What's with the messed up artwork with bad spelling and images that don't resemble Bret at all? 2. You forgot the main 'what if?' : Owen likely doesn't die, Bret doesn't get concussed, doesn't have his stroke, can wrestle into his 50s.
  • @Istvantastic
    Talk for 15 minutes without saying anything of substance. I can tell you love Bret, so do I! I was hoping you'd develop hypothetical storylines and alternate wrestling outcomes. Instead you just said obvious things only. My 2 cents. Still appreciate your work!
  • Bret probably would have been the one who ended the Undertaker's streak if he stayed.
  • @joehiggs4349
    They pushed him as hard as they could. The fans just didn’t care that much. At least HBK, another weak champion, was so hated people liked seeing him beaten so he could have stayed around to put the champions over. Brett was a hero people yawned at. Nothing left in that tank.

    Brett was getting old age and wear and tear on his body would of caught up with him soon than what it would have than him being in wcw. He just didn't seem to be suited for the attitude era.

    Bret Hart's departure from WWE was inevitable, WCW or no WCW. He was more than vocal and angry about the direction of the company. WWE still would have ran with Stone Cold and The Rock and Bret Hart would be relegated to Intercontinental title status, if he didn't quit first. Or, he would have been placed in Legends status like The Undertaker eventually moved into, having 1 or 2 matches a year at the big shows for big matches only to put over their future champions like Triple H, Kurt Angle, Guerrero, Lesnar, etc. Ultimately, IMO, there was no room at all for a Bret Hart in WWE's Attitude Era.
