Bret Hart and The Rock are two of the biggest Superstars in the history of WWE. Back when The Rock was a young gun with a bright future ahead, Bret Hart was among the ones who sensed that he had something in him that could turn him into a major star in the coming days. Around that time, Bret Hart was set to score a win over The Rock (who went by the moniker of Rocky Maivia at the time) on an episode of RAW.

The Rock hadn't made it big yet in WWE at that point

The result of the match had to be changed though, as the WWE legend refused to win against The Rock. The match took place on the March 25, 1997 edition of WWE RAW, and ended with The Rock picking up a DQ win over Hart. Hart's decision reportedly didn't sit well with Triple H and Shawn Michaels, who believed that The Rock posed a threat to their standing on the WWE roster. Bret Hart was on point in regards to The Rock's potential, as the latter went on to become one of the greatest Superstars to ever step foot in the squared circle.
