Background: What happens when the best collide?

Bret was a fighting prodigy. Raised under the tutelage of his father Stu Hart and a product of his infamous Dungeon, Hart could have been a god of fighting anywhere he went but he went to America. 

There he fell in with Titan. It was there he met Jim Neidhart, a traveling tough guy who's claim to fame was playing pro football for a bit and breaking a few anvils over his chest. They were partnered with Jimmy "Mouth of the South" Hart, who got them in good with Titan and McMahon especially. 

For most of the 80's they worked willingly with Hart but things slowly grew sour. They wanted out, but Jimmy refused. When he started managing Demolition, they could see the writing on the wall but they failed to see Jimmy's microphone as it blasted Bret upside his head. 

After that they formally quit and officially joined the Superstars. They stayed together for the rest of the 80's but in 1991 is when things changed wildly for both men but that is recounted elsewhere.
