WrestleMania VIII hosted one of the WWF / WWE ‘s greatest ever Intercontinental Championship matches in history. Champion Roddy Piper defended the gold against Bret Hart in a match packed with storytelling and drama, and the match has stood the test of time nearly 30 years later.

Bret Hart won the IC title at SummerSlam 1991 in a critically acclaimed match with Mr. Perfect. In January of 1992, Hart dropped the title to The Mountie. While fans were a little baffled by this outcome, plans were already being put in place for Bret to regain the championship at WrestleMania. Roddy Piper won the Intercontinental title just 2 days after The Mountie defeated Hart… if Bret wanted his IC title back, he would have to challenge Piper.

The WWF used Piper and Hart’s alleged family relations in order to tell the story, Piper initially didn’t want to wrestle Bret as he had too much respect for the Hart family. Bret persisted though, and Piper agreed to a match at WrestleMania 8 against the Hitman. Piper vs Hart would turn into a masterclass in in-ring storytelling and psychology, resulting in one of WrestleMania’s greatest ever matches and one of the very best Intercontinental Championship matches in wrestling history.
