Sure, Bret Hart was the better Wrestler

Yikes.

At least his woman looks good; something of an ogre in Wrestling With Shadows.

It's the baby with the mirrorshades that just makes it complete.

Oh. My. God.

I am overcome with AWESOME!

Did you just say that Bret Hart was better than Ric Flair?

Such a... Canadian thought.

Go fig, I thought those jackets were pretty swank back in the day.

I shudder to think at the monthly hair-products bill this family incurs.

Well, he was being sponsored by Dippity Doo for much of the '90s, so thankfully that wouldn't be a burden for them.

You dare doubt Bret's superiority? Them's fighting words.

...or pretend fighting words, anyway.

It just looks like something you'd see on a marching band during Pride.

What's awesome is that he's, what, 17 now? I hope his dad took him to the dungeon for some lessons. Once people saw that picture he'd need it.

He is a Hart.

He needs no lessons.

He didn't touch his toes as a baby. He grabbed his ankle and put his imaginary friend into the Sharpshooter.

That's not hair care product...

It's an evolutionary advantage of the Hart family to have slick, aerodynamic hair.

I haven't seen that film in years. Everything that isn't Montreal Screwjob is kinda vague.

I more than "doubt" it. Flat out: Ric Flair is a better performer, had more of an impact for more promotions and wrestling as a whole, had more high quality matches with a wider variety of opponents, and was better at promos.

If Bret hadn't gone to WWF in the mid 80s and had spent more time working internationally and for a wider variety of American promotions -- or if he had been born and started his career 10 years earlier -- I think he could have achieved much more. Of course, it didn't help that he had good years left on his career when he went to WCW and they pissed it away, and then the concussion streak occurred.
