1. It’s been 25 years since Vince McMahon screwed Bret Hart at the Survivor Series.
The incident, which took place on Nov. 9, 1997, at the Molson Centre, became known as the Montreal Screwjob and changed professional wrestling forever.
For those who don’t know the backstory of the incident, Vince McMahon concocted a plan that the match’s ref would ring the bell in the middle of Hart’s match with Shawn Michaels and declare Michaels the winner and new champion. Hart had no idea this was coming. Why? McMahon had to get the title off Hart, who was leaving the company for WCW and had refused to agree to any story line or finish that would end with him dropping the belt to Michaels.
