How big of a deal was it when Bret Hart became the WWF Champion for a 5th Time?

[Finn Baller]

I was invested in all the stipulations The Hart Foundation had on the line that Summerslam night

I forgot them all by now

If Bret lost he was never going to wrestle in America again

If Owen lost he had to kiss Austin’s ass

If Bulldog lost he had to eat dog food

If Pillman lost he had to wear a dress

If Anvil lost he had to shave his goatee off

 

[JQ Legend]

The fact he owed the victory to HBK of all people was a bigger deal than him winning the belt itself

And Hoegan got his 5th WWF title WM9 so nah Bret wasn’t the first to get to 5
