Six years sounds extreme... I could probably buy that Vince told him he was gonna be the top guy for a long time, but I don't see Bret having a continuous Bruno/Backlund type hold on the title all thru the '90s.

This. I'm guessing Vince promised him being the top guy and a Main Eventer for years, but claiming he was going to hold the belt for 6 years straight is out of the Hoegan Ducktails Playbook.

I believe this.

I believe Vince probably told him that.

But I also think if a new star emerged they would cut that short and want Bret to drop the belt.

I feel like he would have done it.

Bro brets my guy

But man

Wm 9 fukkery

MADE 10 matter

No 9. No 10. No bret hart solidified. No owen matches. No yoko 1 year with the belt. It allowed all them to solidify and be the guys.

It all played out perfectly. Bret acts like a bytch sometimss and cried in the doc iver it. He was green and didnt sell the tickets… AT WRESTLEMANIA.

No warrior. No andre. No macho. Needed hogan. It did. In 1993 hulk higan mattered. Bret hart really didnt yet. He lost summerslam. He was a tag guy. He grew into the part with his run to 10.

None of those guys were ready yet. The next year, they would be. But not yet.

When the fans chose him over lex, he was the guy.

If hogan doesnt comeback at 9. And bret fumbles wm. Bret hart isnt bret hart.

cause 6 year run is unrealistic for that time when they were building new stars

Look man, Bret has literal brain damage from a stroke. Nearly all of his family died from the business. He's also a GOAT. So I'm going to let it slide if he goes into Hulk tales.
