Stone Cold Steve Austin recently identified the WWE Hall of Famer who helped “put him on the map” during their now legendary feud.
The six-time WWE Champion, four-time Tag Team Champion, two-time Intercontinental Champion and former King of the Ring spoke to Complex, saying:
“Hanging out with Bret Hart, you know he was the guy that really helped put me on the map with the match at WrestleMania 13”
It went beyond the one match, however, with Austin going on to say:
“All the feuding we did, and of course a close personal friend.”
The match would lead to one of the most memorable moments in WrestleMania history, as Austin passed out to the Sharpshooter with blood pouring down his face.
The No Disqualification Submission Match would be the culmination of a feud that received the “Feud of the Year” award from both Wrestling Observer and Pro Wrestling Illustrated.
