i bought this game in 2002 so i can play as bret,back then smack down and smack down vs raw video games didnt hhave bret hart as playable chracter,its good to see him in recent and upcoming games like svr 2011 and wwe all stars
@ColorsBright there's some truth in that. But I like to look at it this way, he wasn't a loveable face nor a hateful heel, he was a respectable man in any position you put him in, he had tons of class and just oozed charisma. You loved to love him, simple as that. And there are still guys like him, but to me the top 3 in this category are Bret Hart, RVD anf the Rock.
Somebody once said Bret couldn't cut a promo to save his life. Why?? cuz he was verbose and expressive in them? Plus his voice was just right for his aggressiveness, this promo in particular proves it.
Boy was he shooting in those vids man. All that right on the "Boy Toy"
When it came to promos, he is very underrated, he wasn't outlandish cause he made things seem real, that was what made him so great, he sold wrestling as if it was real life.
The Best There Is, The Best There Was, And The Best There Ever Will Be.
I always thought Bret's grudge vids were by far the best in this game, yet he is pretty mediocre on the mic in real life. I remember him saying on Byte This that he never found promos easy because he could never really open up in front of a crowd. Makes sense that his best work is in pre-taped promos, such as this, and his great heel work in Memphis '93.
He was the "bad guy" hero with the beer drinking, cussing and so forth. Bret talks about it in the documentary he did about the WWF(E) and the Montreal Screwjob.
@SinisterManiac Austin is nothing like the Sandman. I'll tell you I guys like Sandman whenever I go out to drink. Austin poured beer down his chest, Sandman is just somebody you would meet in Kensington. Sandman shooting pool, doing lines off the bar and getting his dick sucked in the bathroom.
@SinisterManiac: But Vince was paying off Heyman by funding the bingo hall promotion, so Vince felt he was entitled to borrow ideas, since he let Heyman take his extreme style to the WWE in the 80s (The King called it Extremely CRAPPY Wrestling as an play-by-play insult, of course) & both of them were trying to out-do WCW.
back when wrestlers were allowed to have personalities and were realistic. now we have cartoon charachters and generic idiots

@Gray86Fox I was always curious if he did these promos before the montreal screwjob or after (if he was still allowed to do it while in WCW.)

Yeah but Austin is a victim of circumstance in this case. I'm sure Bret was more aggravated at Michaels and Vince than anyone else.

@zabc19 In real life, Bret and Austin were close friends and remain so to this day. Austin inducted Bret into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2006.

Austin pretty much ripped off what the Sandman had already been doing in Original ECW!

It's kind of weird. By the time this game was released, Bret was already in WCW. At least I think so... That's what I read anyway.

Yes that's correct. WWF War Zone was released in 1998.
But Warzone's time frame/roster was set in 1997. The same thing with WWF Attitude: Released in 1999, but they had the timeframe of 1998.
