COLD PIZZA: Why The WWE Should Bring Back King of the Ring

1993

Bret Hart won the tournament, defeating Razor Ramon in the first round, Mr. Perfect in the semi’s in a classic bout! He won the crown by beating one of the best big men of all time, Bam Bam Bigelow.

Hart was on the cusp of making another run at the WWF title by winning the King of the Ring, but saw his coronation ruined by the evil Jerry The King Lawler who attacked him during the ceremony setting up their feud instead.

Their feud would hit its peak later that Summer at SummerSlam 1993, as Lawler would try to weasel out of their match, only to get trapped in the Sharpshooter for an extended period of time before having to be stretchered out of the arena.

It also led into the beginning of the Owen Hart vs Bret rivalry that would be one for the ages.

It was a great rookie offering for the tournament, and one that would feature several Hall of famers in Mr. Perfect, Duggan, Hart and Scott Hall (Ramon). Along with two people who could eventually be Hall of Famers in Luger and Bam Bam Bigelow.
