@Fendi Bull didn’t realize you had CTE. I mean clearly you know exactly what he was going thru with CTE at that time. It’s got nothing to do with your personality. CTE means you damaged your brain so much that you no longer are a mentally stable human. Benoit before CTE was chill
@Blank Comment He was a Wrestler people still Idolize MJ He slept in Bed with kids yet he was a great singer or dancer No Matter what happend that weekend Benoit is one of the best ever
@@JoshLavian which he admitted to in his book (unlike most wrestlers book, was not full of carny bullshit) it’s not like he drugged & raped a bunch of women on the road like a certain “Born Again Christian” did. Never worked impaired, never hurt anyone in the ring and never played politics to hold others down. Can’t say that about probably 95% of his fellow workers who got to the top in his era.
@@ants84 he didn't play politics? How did the screw job happen then ? Lol that was the whole reason. Because he didn't want to drop the belt the way he should of .
@Jeff Ovington Really? Just because of one critical mistake, you discredit their ability? Chris Benoit killed his family, yet still considered one of the greatest technical wrestlers of all times.
Lol Owen hart. A legend because he died tragically. Nobody liked him at all when he was alive. The crowd was chanting get him out!! Boring! Nugget! Throwing trash at him And it was obvious he was dead. He crashes faced first from 80ft. Everyone knew he was dead. and his neck wasn’t aligned. That’s what the fans thought Owen when ge wrestled.
Pretty awesome that Styles, Punk, and Bryan are on that shortlist. I know a lot of people wouldn't include them simply because they are still active, but you can feel the effects of those three guys in literally every single promotion on planet Earth.
He really is. The guy had a credible amateur background (Amateur Wrestling Hall of Fame inductee) and parlayed that into the pros without coming off like a mat spot monkey, like some guys I won't name.
That's horseshit. Ricky Steamboat would've given him a mat wrestling lesson. He had a better amateur background. He would take him to school imo. Scientifically Steamboat was better. But i guess that's just a matter of opinion.
Steamboat was so damn good he didn't need to pay no dues. Won PWI Rookie of the Year in 1977. That's much more than i can say for Bret Hart. Bret was a jobber before he got over.
Steve Regal should be in the conversation and anyone not familiar with British wrestling, check out Johnny Saint. This guy's skills are amazing, literally walks out of any hold put on him! I'd love to see a modern wrestler adopt his style. (Colt Cabana has similar moves when being serious)
Adrian Street, just to name one. Regal definitely major skills. British wrestling is awesome. I like that style. Also all Japan has some pretty serious guys.
I’m #teambret, even more after reading his book. This icon is what great wrestling is all about, a classy guy and an amazing representative for the wrestling business.
You do not know Mr Bret,how many fans u hv.i m from pakistan,I m 56 years old.i always pray for u.u r my favorite wrestler,I shall come to Canada just to see u face to face.God bless u
My Mount Rushmore would be Dynamite Kid, Bret Hart, Scott Steiner and Dean Malenko. Alternates that could easily be carved in would be Kurt Angle, Brock Lesnar and Chris Benoit.
@@TheTenCentStory true but I m 48 now and I would give anything to see him step into the ring at age 30 against Angle or a Nick Aldis or even a Kenny Omega tbh. I have seen all his matches and would love to see one more great match.
I spoke to Bret on cameo really nice man. I always respect his honesty a lot. He told me his match with Shawn Michaels Iron Man Match was his favourite and admitted Shawn was an Amazing performer
Very cool. One of the things I have always appreciated about Bret is that he genuinely cares about his fans. That Mt Rushmore is pretty good. I've noticed Bret is a big fan of CM Punk and Daniel Bryan
0:44 i love that he actually threw punk in there. my favorite wrestler off all time and cena should have put him over. the only man to consistently threaten cena in the popularity ratings and that was with the system actively working against him. look at what he is doing in AEW already making all time classics.
The wrestlemania 10 opening match between Bret and Owen Hart is the greatest display of technical wrestling ever, and the greatest match ever in my opinion.
Thanks to everyone who has viewed this video and commented with your own Mt. Rushmore of the greatest Technical wrestlers. I’ve given mine and yeah it’s biased because Bret Hart is my favorite wrestler. But I’d like to ask everyone who their dream match would be between technical wrestlers?? For me it would be Bret Hart vs. Kurt Angle. I love both guys and that match would be a great wrestling match.
Greatest of all time period this is the type of men no matter what job he has we would do what he has to to be the best in whatever he involves himself in respect
Scott Hall was the best ever!!! Because, Scott for as big as he was, was also athletic and known in the business for being a safe wrestler and pin point on his moves!!! Imagine his finishing move, how he could hurt someone's neck or back, without the slightest skill level that he possessed in the Razors edge, very technically ring sound as well!!!
I have a hard time selecting the No 1... its always a battle between Benoit / Angle / Bret, Even though I slightly favor Benoit cause I miss his intensity, crispiness, believability and also as a child I grew up following his career.
I understand what you're saying... Benoit was a machine, is intensity was unrivalled. The thing is, he himself though that he wasn't quite at the level Bret and the Dynamite Kid were, and he would always train harder than the day before. He was his biggest critic and his worst enemy.
I’m glad no one in this thread is trying to say Benoit shouldn’t be considered because of what he did the last few days of his life. Can you all imagine a triple threat between Angle, Brett, and Benoit? I’d buy that in a heartbeat
I just want everybody to know The Hitman was my first sports hero in my eyes he truly is the best there is the best there was and the best there ever will be
The "Technical Mt Rushmore" is (for WWE/F) Angle, Bret, Eddie and arguable cases for Benoit, Jericho, Perfect, Bryan and Malenko as the fourth. In my opinion.
God I love this man. My hero! If I could add a few honorable mentions: Kurt Angle, Chris Benoit, Dean Malenko, Owen Hart, Eddie Guerrero, Davey Boy Smith and Ricky Steamboat.
Benoit is without a doubt one of the best technicians of all time.
@Fendi Bull wasn’t aware that had anything to do with wrestling.
@Fendi Bull didn’t realize you had CTE. I mean clearly you know exactly what he was going thru with CTE at that time. It’s got nothing to do with your personality. CTE means you damaged your brain so much that you no longer are a mentally stable human. Benoit before CTE was chill
he was good but not in Bret or Hennig's class.
Not cool man you can't say that B-word
@Blank Comment He was a Wrestler people still Idolize MJ He slept in Bed with kids yet he was a great singer or dancer
No Matter what happend that weekend
Benoit is one of the best ever
Curt Hennig was just so stellar. God I wish the guy had lived longer. 😪
I did a Cameo with Bret as well and met him at a signing. He’s genuine, caring and the GOAT! PERIOD! Love how Bret always appreciates his fans.
What does he charge for cameos?
Bret Hart was never bitter. He was just better.
Both inside and outside of the business. Truly a class act & my hero.
He cheated on his wife for years. What the hell are you talking about, "class act"?

Bret's a delusional nut job.
I love Bret but he is as bitter as it gets.
Technical Wrestlers - You can't forget about Owen Hart.
Owen is one of the greatest technical wrestlers ever.
He may have been the best at making people look better than what they really were.
@Jeff Ovington Really? Just because of one critical mistake, you discredit their ability? Chris Benoit killed his family, yet still considered one of the greatest technical wrestlers of all times.
@Jeff Ovington benoit broke sabus neck and stone cold broke chonos neck, accidents happen
Lol Owen hart. A legend because he died tragically. Nobody liked him at all when he was alive.
The crowd was chanting get him out!! Boring! Nugget! Throwing trash at him
And it was obvious he was dead. He crashes faced first from 80ft. Everyone knew he was dead. and his neck wasn’t aligned. That’s what the fans thought Owen when ge wrestled.
than why did he break austin neck?
Bret Hart
Dynamite Kid
Mr. Perfect
Kurt Angle
1.Benoit
2.Angle
3.Bret
4.Mr Perfect
Solid list but I'd swap out perfect for Malenko.
No way benoit is above any of those 3 guys.
Hes good but bret and hennig are better.
punk loves bret, always says he is the goat, also paid tribute to him on his Match against darby allin and sometimes uses bret Hart shirts on tv 💪
Pretty awesome that Styles, Punk, and Bryan are on that shortlist. I know a lot of people wouldn't include them simply because they are still active, but you can feel the effects of those three guys in literally every single promotion on planet Earth.
Hart, benoit, eddie guerrero, angle, Malenko would be my list.
Owen hart was up there if he lived longer he could have surpassed bret
Lmfao!
Malenko was a super underrated wrestler.
Lance Storm
Jericho with his 1004 holds
Bret is the only greatest technical wrestler ever.
He really is. The guy had a credible amateur background (Amateur Wrestling Hall of Fame inductee) and parlayed that into the pros without coming off like a mat spot monkey, like some guys I won't name.
Its cool that he mentioned CM Punk, I need to see more of his matches. Heard he was good. And yeah, always loved Bret to, great technical wrestler!
The crippler might have something to say about it
That's horseshit. Ricky Steamboat would've given him a mat wrestling lesson. He had a better amateur background. He would take him to school imo. Scientifically Steamboat was better. But i guess that's just a matter of opinion.
Steamboat was so damn good he didn't need to pay no dues. Won PWI Rookie of the Year in 1977. That's much more than i can say for Bret Hart. Bret was a jobber before he got over.

I remember the back to back wwf title defenses on television. The best there was the best there is and the best there ever will be!
I was a big Bret Hart fan when I was a kid in the 90's.
Brett is awesome! May god bless him with a long life! People who are not into wrestling still remember him till this day
You do not know Mr Bret,how many fans u hv.i m from pakistan,I m 56 years old.i always pray for u.u r my favorite wrestler,I shall come to Canada just to see u face to face.God bless u
My Mount Rushmore would be Dynamite Kid, Bret Hart, Scott Steiner and Dean Malenko. Alternates that could easily be carved in would be Kurt Angle, Brock Lesnar and Chris Benoit.
I love this guy. I miss his wrestling sooooooooo much.
Go find it. Plenty of great times to relive.

This is absolutely amazing.
Surprised El Dandy didn’t make the list.
What a jam up guy!
@Charming Billy Lmao, El Dandy was so good that nobody remembers a single match he had.
@@jpalvarez4972 Who are you to doubt El Dandy?
Bret, Steamboat, Benoit, and Angle
Amazing I love this , great job Huffman, love the hitman!!!
I spoke to Bret on cameo really nice man. I always respect his honesty a lot. He told me his match with Shawn Michaels Iron Man Match was his favourite and admitted Shawn was an Amazing performer
Punk, Bryan and Styles must feel so honoured to know Bret thinks so highly of them, especially as they grew up with him as their hero.
1. Bret Hart
2. Dynamite Kid
3. Kurt Angle
4. Mr. Perfect
1. Benoit
2. It doesn't matter.
Mr Perfect way above Kurt.
The Hitman. All class, all the time. Thank you Bret!!
This is my favorite wrestler from my childhood days. I follow him from the happy Arab country of Yemen 🇾🇪
There's Bret Hart and Mr. Perfect and then there's everybody else.
Bret Hart
Dean Malenko
Chris Benoit
Kurt Angle
This is great. Something must be going on with the guy he is talking to and its so great how Bret is with his fans.
Nothing going on. He’s just that nice of a guy!
Dean Malenko was incredible technically but almost cruiser weight sized to tangle with heavyweights like Bret or Perfect could.
Very cool. One of the things I have always appreciated about Bret is that he genuinely cares about his fans. That Mt Rushmore is pretty good. I've noticed Bret is a big fan of CM Punk and Daniel Bryan
thats awesome

Your awesome Bret
Bret is very humble cuz Bret is probably the best technical wrestler of all time
The wrestlemania 10 opening match between Bret and Owen Hart is the greatest display of technical wrestling ever, and the greatest match ever in my opinion.
I love Brett so much and am glad he seems to be happy and at peace. No reason to be bitter at an old age, it’s not good for anyone
He’s never been bitter
Kurt Angle, Bret Hart, Mr Perfect, Chris Benoit
Bret Hart , Mr.Perfect, dynamite kid, CM Punk
Act of class their from Bret. My personal favourite wrestler of all time.

Bret Hart, Kurt Angle, Chris Benoit, Dynamite Kid, and honorable mention goes to……………..Bastion Booger.
Bret Hart, Curt Hennig, Dynamite kid, Dean Malenko, Kanyon,Chris Benoit(WCW), William Regal. My Favourite Technical Wrestlers
Perc Angle, Johnny Saint, Dynamite Kid, Daniel Bryan, Zack Sabre Jr, Chris Benoit, Curt Henning and Bret Hart are probably the best in my life time.
Scott Hall was the best ever!!! Because, Scott for as big as he was, was also athletic and known in the business for being a safe wrestler and pin point on his moves!!! Imagine his finishing move, how he could hurt someone's neck or back, without the slightest skill level that he possessed in the Razors edge, very technically ring sound as well!!!
Underrated comment.
He's seen as a bruiser but he was a much better wrestler than most give him credit for.
Uncle Dave would say some unknowm Japanese names in his list haha
Hi Bret. You are best. No one can be like you. My all family members are big fan of you.
That's Dope. I agree. My favorite in ring wrestlers are Bret Hart, Dynamite Kid, Mr Perfect, and Dean Malenko.
Great stuff.
Bret Hart, Dean Malenko, Curt Hennig, Dynamite
luv u guy
Bret Hart, lam from Indonesia, and l love you.You are my Champion, for ever.
For 30 years there was once a Bret hart poster in shop window in Birmingham Oldbury uk
What a cameo!

I realize that most don’t remember the older greats but Dory Funk Jr. trained about half those that have been listed here.
Thanx bret
1. Bret Hart 2. Kurt Angle 3. AJ styles 4. Curt Henning
The best there is... The best there was... The best there ever will be....
1 - Bret
2 - Angle
3 - Perfect
4 - Malenko
I just want everybody to know The Hitman was my first sports hero in my eyes he truly is the best there is the best there was and the best there ever will be
My Mt. Rushmore would be Bret Hart, Kurt Angle, Kurt Henning and Owen Hart.
That A&E Docu was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
He forgot to put himself on the list! 😂 Those were reasonable choices, with Curt Hennig being the best of them IMO.
I love Bret Hart but I honestly thought his Mt. Rushmore of professional wrestling would be
1. Bret Hart
2. Bret Hart
3. Bret Hart
4. Bret Hart
😂
Owen should be there, too.
@@Garradorable1 Yep, most certainly!
He isn't full of himself like Jericho.
Classy move not to put your self on your own list.
Bret Hart, Mr Perfect, Steve Regal, Dean Malenko
Thats a hell of a Mt. Rushmore.
Bret, Kurt, Dynamite, Angle.
Curt, Bret, Dynamite.
the best technical wrestlers ever
How to make an amazing cameo in 1 minute
For me.... Bret, Angle, American Dragon, he who shall not be named
Now that is a promo.
Whoever wrote that, I think Bret mentioned Heidi, it's very nicely written. Bret did a great job on it too. That was cool.
Owen, Bret, Eddie, Angle
He's a real jam up guy
Great video! How much costs a Bret Hart cameo?
How do u send Bret a direct question like this. I’m sure he gets millions but I was just curious how you send it,Twitter?
George the Animal Steel,Haystacks Calhon, Glacier and Honkey tonk man by far for the most technical wrestler's of Mt Rushmore
😂😂😂😂 add gillberg to the list
@@mrpassley2307 For sure 😂😂
The "Technical Mt Rushmore" is (for WWE/F) Angle, Bret, Eddie and arguable cases for Benoit, Jericho, Perfect, Bryan and Malenko as the fourth. In my opinion.
Bret Hart was the best in ring technical wrestler. I never noticed a mistake.
Would've loved to see Bret wrestle Kurt.
Bret hart the greatest
No Kurt Angle? That's quite interesting.
Love Bret
The best there ever will be
Bret didn't mention Kurt Angle. Wow!
people talk about eras . we forget BRET HART BUILT RAW . RAW BUILT EVERYTHING AFTER IT .
Id say Hart, Benoit, Perfect and Dynamite.
Bret Hart best ever entertainer
no not even close to entertaining
good wrestler sure
hogan is the best entertainer
Savage
Vince
Austin is in there
Bret Hart
Ken Shamrock
Dean Malenko
Mr.Perfect
The best there is, the best there was, the best there ever will be.
Nice
Hitman you’re the best. ✌️
I dont know you
Or why this showed up on my wall in the rabbit hole that is TH-cam
But damnit im glad it did
This was great the Hitman is a G.o.a.t.
God I love this man. My hero! If I could add a few honorable mentions: Kurt Angle, Chris Benoit, Dean Malenko, Owen Hart, Eddie Guerrero, Davey Boy Smith and Ricky Steamboat.
…..William Regal too.
@@mercoid of course Regal
