10 WWE Dream Matches That Only Happened Once
These are 10 WWE dream matches that only took place once
5. The Steiner Brothers vs. Bret Hart & Owen Hart
While most ‘dream’ matches tend to be of the singles variety, there’s nothing that says tags can’t be in the mix too.
Just days before Owen kicked Bret’s leg out from under him and not long before Rick and Scott Steiner said ‘Sayonara!’ to WWE in favour of going back to Japan, WWE scrambled to book a bout between the two sets of brothers.
The foursome were informed about the match – which ended up being shown as a Coliseum Home Video exclusive on the WrestleFest 4 tape – shortly before being sent to the ring.
And while both Bret and Scott contend it could have been better if they’d been given more time to prepare, the match the Harts and Steiners produced on pretty much no notice is a testament to their collective ability as performers.
An all-babyface affair, it was different in psychology and structure than pretty much any other tag match you’re likely to see from the time, with lots of actual technical wrestling as well as some really big, heavy-duty moves like a brutal Steiner Screwdriver on Owen.
In the end there was nothing to separate them and the match finished on a double count-out, which felt like a tease for a rematch that, sadly, never came.
