>>11738443vince respects guys who stand up for themselves
giving vince a black eye was the best thing he could have done in that moment
vince absolutely would have taken bret back in 98
if he had taken it like a cuck in montreal, vince would never have respected him again and never taken him back
>>11738484he ushered in that era with the character work
97 was bret's best year and it was precisely because he grew into something more than just le teknikul rassler
his goat match (THE goat match) was a bloody hardcore brawl
his in-ring work in that heel run was all about a gritty brawling heel style
you clearly didnt watch 97 wwf
he would have fit right back in into full-on AE WWF
