I personally liked Owen alittle better maybe because he was just as good but never quite got the recoginition Brett did. I never understood why Owen never got the WWF title. He was a great technical wrestler who IMO was overlooked in someways by Vince.

Having watched matches from both in Calgary and in WWE, I believe Bret is better buit we never got to really see what Owen was capable of. That "could-have-been" thought about Owen.

Owen got my vote, he did seem more agressive and a harder worker too like Saber said. Although I didn't watch Owen a lot (wasn't watching Wrestling as much during that time), I think he reminds me of Kurt Angle a little bit.
I did like Bret in the Hart Foundation, but that's because he was with the "Anvil" and Jimmy Hart forming a great (and funny at times) tag-team. I never liked watching Bret in singles matches (so I tried not too), and now I would still just fast forward his matches on the VCR when they come on.

I honestly believe as Iceman already stated that Owen worked harder and IMO cared more about the business than Brett and thats saying alot. Brett I believe truly loved the business but I dont think his desire was as strong as Owens and it truly is sad he never got to wear the WWF title around his waist atleast once.

Well from hearing from the Hart family it was Bret that cared more about the business. I read an interview with Keith Hart as he said Bret's priorities was wrestling #1 family #2. Own was family #1 and wrestling #2.

Own was family #1 and wrestling #2. Exactly. And I can honestly say Bret has nothing to be proud of if that's true. Both are immensely skilled, but Owen always was more exciting to watch to me. I didn't see Stampede Wrestling when Bret was around, but I did to get to see Owen and he was great. His days as The Blue Blazer in the '80s W.W.F. were truly sensational. He really stood apart from the muscleheads that dominated the Federation in those days, yet Bret was there and I don't quite remember him being so sensational. The one exception is the Randy Savage - Bret Hart match from November 28th, 1987's Saturday Night's Main Event, which I found to be truly amazing. With all due respect to Bret, I've got to go with Owen, looking down on us now from heaven with a great disdain for the state of the game today.

I agree if Brett was willing to put family first then thats pretty screwed up. And Owen was IMO more exciting than Brett. Brett was great technically but Owen was equally talented and IMO better to watch.

I agree Owen was the more exiting to watch and I think he cared more about the fans enjoyment of the match then maby Bret Did.
Thats not an insult because Bret cetainly did care about the fans and makeing sure they had a good time. But I just some times think he fell into the mind set of Haveing a Match That HE as a Fan would enjoy and that HE would be proud of not a match that nesercerily the audiance would enjoy.
Case in point
Royal Rumble 95 against Diesel (Bret trying to wrestle a technical match against an opponant that stye not suited against realy)

Owen got my vote!! I always liked Owen better and I thought he was so funny in character and reading about how he was in real life, makes me like him even more. Also I think he had a better attitude than what Bret does, not to make any of Bret's fans angry, but I have never been a Bret Hart fan. Owen deserves more recognition than what he gets!!

Owen deserved a WWF title shot but like some many others in the WWF never got it.
