Though not his first time carrying the coveted United States Championship, WWE Hall of Famer Bret “Hit Man” Hart’s most memorable reign of this kind was birthed in front of his native Canadian countrymen, live on Raw. Capturing the title in a wild bout without disqualifications or count-outs, The Excellence of Execution silenced The Miz with Hart’s signature sharpshooter and commenced his fifth United States Championship reign—and first time carrying championship gold in WWE since 1997.
