Owen Hart : 15 Years On

I cannot believe it is now fifteen years to the day since Owen Hart had his tragic accident during the WWF Over the Edge pay-per-view.

I'll always remember that night as I watched the show on Sky Sports. It still is right up there as being one of the worst experiences I have had as a fan of professional wrestling.

For those who don't follow wrestling - Owen Hart was set to make his entrance from above the ring. He was hooked up to the rafters by a cable but the auto-release snapped causing him to descend to his death.

If you're looking to celebrate Hart's life then here are a few matches I think you should watch. None in any particular order. All are good.

Owen Hart vs Bret Hart (WrestleMania X)

Owen Hart vs British Bulldog (European Championship final from Germany in 1997)
