Jim Ross reflects on missed opportunities regarding Owen Hart's career. He points out that Hart was not given enough of an opportunity to "carry the load" and be a bigger star, despite his amazing skills.
Regarding Hart's potential to work with Stone Cold Steve Austin, JR notes that he never heard of any hesitation from Austin about working with Hart, despite their SummerSlam story.
On this watch-along edition of Grilling JR, listen as JR and Conrad watch back the May 21, 2001 episode of Monday Night Raw! It went down the night after Judgement Day 2001 from the Compaq Center in San Jose, CA, and is most remembered for perhaps the best TV tag match in WWE history, if not wrestling history. It’s Austin & HHH vs. Benoit & Jericho in a tag title match for the ages!
