I think Bret is a lot less bitter than he was before. I think people just confuse his honesty with bitterness. There’s tons of interviews where he speaks so positively about wrestlers new and old. For the record, the man has every right to be bitter anyways but he seems so at peace and happy now. The way he talks about how unhealthy it was to carry around hate for Shawn, he’s grown a ton.
I think it's more the questions people ask him. If everybody just wants to ask about Goldberg and the screwjob they are going to get the same answers. So now everybody thinks he's bitter because he keeps talking about those things because he keeps getting asked. You ask about negative things you will get negative answers.
i think he is a bit 🤏 bitter about Goldberg recklessly ending his career and obviously the screwjob and how all that was handled.. but those are things he should be bitter about and he has every right to be as you said, but him and Vince made peace, him and Shawn made peace years ago, he still hates Goldberg, but Bret does seem happy and at peace
It looked like Bret got choked up at the end. Bret literally looked like he was punching the Hell out of people in the ring and killing them with his vast array of wrestling moves. That's why Bret referred to himself as "The Excellence of Execution", because he never hurt anyone with his moves, but it damn sure looked like he did. He definitely IS THE BEST performer!
@@MikeRubin-l8bSometimes everyone is stiff. You also have to consider the style of the person you're working. What if he's like Vader, someone who's ALWAYS stiff w/EVERYONE. You better be stiff back.
A lot of people who do not understand wrestling (and I am not saying I do) fail to appreciate that these fights are basically one big cascading series of stunts. It is one thing to do one big stunt or six little stunts in sequence, but wrestlers are basically doing one big stunt, lots of little stunts, two big stunts, three littles, then four big ones, big sequences like that. It takes more skill than most people can imagine to do a series of stunts like that and not fukk yourself and the other stuntmen up. It is also why wrestlers who refused to listen when they were told hey, learn better technique, such as The Ultimate Warrior, quickly got sidelined.
Met warrior when I was young when he was supposedly an assholes. Complete gentleman, professional and kind. My dad was a bodybuilder and warrior took the time to talk to him and inspire me. Rip dad and rip warrior.
I think there are very few people who are just bad people 24/7. People are complicated beings and sometimes can be pricks in some situations and great people in others

Well we all have good days and bad days. I consider myself quite a friendly outgoing person, but I can think of at least 3 times in work this week I've had to be abrasive and caustic to get my point across and get shit done. I know people don't like it when I behave like that, but I like things to run smoothly and productively. Haven't got time for childish nonsense. We can't all be nice 24/7 and more often than not being that way doesn't get you noticed, respected or ironically liked (latter being subjective to circumstance). Also this is the WWF we're talking about. You get a room full of guys on test, pills, alcohol and ego and I don't think you'll find many guys who are nice to begin with. Not to mention they're all big tall fucking macho men before they've even taken anything. What impressed me when I met Jim was he just went out of his way with everyone. It did hold the line up a bit, but you could hear him talking to the people in front of you and just see that he was a cool guy and I listened in hearing what he had to say to the other people who were there to meet him. Never meet your heroes? In Jim's case - definitely meet your hero.
Brett is the best wrestler and entertainer to ever get in the ring. I wish I could tell him thank you and shake his hand. He gave us all so many great matches and great stories. I saw him once live when I was a kid and it was the coolest thing. Always a class act, always a champion with or without the belt
TRIVIA NEWSFLASH Does Bret even know this? Bret is the only WWE superstar to hold the WWF title in 1992 1993 1994 1995 1996 and 1997. That is a crazy stat I don’t even think Bret knows. I love Bret!
Are you saying he held it from 92 all the way to 97 he didn't lose it once thank God it back because if there's a break then it doesn't really matter right. But who was the person that how did the longest wasn't it like 10 years straight maybe there was someone even before him that held it longer I forget. But if there was a break between 92 and 97 and it really isn't munch. Do they even have to give Bret Hart a title. Kind of like the Undertaker and The Undertaker didn't need the title to be relevant same thing in my opinion Shawn Michaels Bret Hart they didn't need a title
@@Treevors30 Bret Hart needed to always been in the title picture, Shawn Michaels needed to always have an opponent he can fight up against... because Bret Hart's style plays off being the best so holding the title is a symbol of that... while Shawn Michaels needs to always find a new obstacle, a new challenge to rise up... to be honest Shawn winning the title from Bret Hart finally, was his peak at that point cause Bret Hart was the best at that point in time... However Bret Hart's story was not over until he went to WCW and they had no idea what they were doing
Bret Hart before wrestling majored in filmmaking and shot short films highlighted in his A&E biography. He is also professional cartoonist while majoring in filmmaking.
@phychmashert the fact that he lied about the Montreal Screw Job and continues to lie about it to this day. Because he originally didn't want to lose because he didn't know how to separate his Hitman character from himself which is extremely pathetic and he knows that. Instead of just coming clean and apologizing he put the blame on Shawn Micheals' not realizing that his Wrestling with Shadows documentary showed right through to all his bullshit. But he's got some fans that believe he can do no wrong and basically condone all his wrong doings that actually make these certain fans even more pathetic.
It's amazing how Bret can keep a straight face about his drawing orgies on the board. I've heard him mention about his drawing cartoons and how they made the other wrestlers laugh.
Got into pro wrestling in 2000 (10 yrs old) and was never aware of Bret Hart. But since I've watched and I've learned, but I never heard this fully explained by Bret himself. Gotta say I'm a bigger fan now 👍
You BARELY missed Bret’s amazing final months in WWF! You missed some great stuff from Shawn and the best stuff from Steve Austin too. 1996-late 98 nWo, Goldberg, Sting, Luger, DDP were all 🔥 too.
I was big into Bret and wrestling during the late 90s and let me tell you--seeing that era play out week after week from the age of 9-13 was really something. The good old days.
As a young kid watching wrestling I thought Brets matches were kinda boring. Now as a grown man I watch them back and appreciate his talent so much more. He made wrestling seem real and believable. He is the purest, and the best of all time.
What about his actions when it comes to wrestlers he put on the map? Why are you only bothered about the wrestlers he disliked? Both Rock and Stone Cold have stayed they really owe their careers to Bret and his influence in the WWF. Why don't you appreciate the many he put over? If you focused more on the positives and less on the negative maybe you wouldn't be garbage
I just want to give that man a hug. He just wanted to make the boys laugh. Then he lost his brother and his career and people wonder why he's bitter. The guy is probably in so much pain with getting his head kicked so hard by Goldberg. I'm sure sunlight bothers him, and flying is probably a miserable experience for him. All Bret ever needed was that ring and those guys in the locker room and that got snatched from him by a roided out gimmick football player pretending to be a pro wrestler. I can't blame him for being bitter at all.
I started watching wrestling because of Chief Jay Strongbow. Just a kid turning the TV dial flipping through the UHF channels (near Boston) on Saturday morning. caught Chief Jay in the ring wearing his headdress. caught my attention. that was it. I still watch today.
Man, what I wouldn’t give to haven able to see those drawings 😂 I’ve seen samples of his drawings and they look amazing. It’s just they are family friendly versions 😂 There is something incredibly hilarious about the thought of a cartoon of Virgil hanging himself with his own piece 😂😂😂😂
This is awesome! Im a cartoonist/artist and once i moved to a new city id start drawing people from work on the inside of the stalls in the bathroom but never let anyone know it was me. Never told anyone i could draw or anything i had whole groups of people trying to figure it out
This is the first time Ive heard him speak about something funny or entertaining he did. He would always talk about Owen or someone else. He needs more questions like this that dont make him sound bitter.
He epitomises wrestling and theres a reason why hes the excellence of execution. Wrestling is in his Blood One of the all time greats and i love it when the British stuff gets acknowledged especially Bell Vue where I grew up
Every time I watch wrestling, I legitimately wish that Bret was there in his youth. There's nobody that Bret couldn't get over. People talk down about his mic skills but when you look around today, was he really that bad in comparison??
Imagine if he would have accepted (or Vince wouldn't have convinced him out of) that 20-year contract. While he obviously wouldn't have wrestled that whole time, you would have had more matches v. Austin, and then Hart v. Angle, v. Jericho, v. Eddie, v. Edge, v. Orton, and eventually... v. Shawn.
The fact that warrior laughed at it means the tabloid story probably isn't true. Reckon Warrior would have been a lot more sensitive about it if it was true.
Yeah I agree with that ending statement it's pretty cool to be able to do something that looks like it hurts someone a lot but it might hurt a little bit. More than likely it's going to hurt the person doing the move more than it is the person that it's done on. I always thought that was cool I feel like wrestler is nowadays I don't know if they suck or if it's just the writing something needs to change because it's not what it used to be. But that could just be me getting older and looking at something and being like I remember when I was younger wrestling used to be good I mean how many people thought about that during the Attitude Era older men watching it and be like this is garbage and me being like this is great so I don't know if it's just getting older. To me something needs to change in my opinion and it seems like some of these wrestlers are missing their mark on certain moves and it just looks bad
I'm legit in shock that Bret said his fans in England are better than his fans in Canada!!!! Thank goodness Vince didn't ask him to drop the belt in London lol!!!!😂😂😂
He seems to most of the time; it's merely that the questions people ask, and the videos that get spread around, are the ones about sore topics. Even then, he's not as clearly angry as he used to be when those subjects are brought up... most of the time!
Truthfully, if I was a wrestler and was going through all the shit of being in an envrionment where huge muscular men are trying to convincingly fake beating the shit out of each other multiple days a week, I would want someone like Bret around who can make the off-stage part fun. If I am in a locker room with a man who is over seen feet tall, and someone is drawing things that makes that man laugh that much, it is helping me through the less pleasant parts of the job. Nobody wants to be in a job where it is all serious all of the time, especially not a job like wrestling.
I lived through that 80’s era … From watching Mr. Fuji , Moon Dogs , Wild Samoans , Roddy Piper , Big John Studd , Don Muraco , and let me just say …. There was nothing or no one that had the impact and meteoric rise to fame like the Ultimate Warrior … All these other guys were jealous and still are jealous of him because when he became the star of the movie, they were still just extras
I used to draw cartoons and funny and offensive stuff on my sisters yearbook. Anything funny I would write whether it was a racist comment or a funny caption. I totally get Bret’s humor and would have done the exact same thing lol
I'll be honest, I liked some of the gimmick characters in early '90s WWF but I never liked the WWF foie gras merch steamroller - which Bret very much represented as a figurehead of the company. I don't resent Bret and others putting bread and honey on the table but the media saturation hard sell blitzkrieg wasn't my cup of tea. Pink and black overload. I found solace in some of the not-so-over or modestly over characters: Nailz, Doink, Shango, Regal as the snooty lord, Paul Roma's excellence of disqualification. I realise one or two of those characters are more over with the audience now in retrospect but that's my genuine perspective of the time. As soon as Bret started participating in shoot interviews, new lease of life in my estimation, acknowledging some of those fringe characters who entertained me back in the day. I wasn't aware of Bret and Owen coming to England at the time, although if they ever featured on World of Sport television I almost certainly saw those matches. Mart Jones is my #1. Bret doesn't go overboard with praise here but he does acknowledge with an air of respect. A feather in Bret's cap for me.
He sounds weird about the orgies but hes been through alot! I remember his father Stew! The wrestling program in when i was a kid to me was better then wwf! Anyways great wrestler and man!
The term "laugh out loud" is really overused, I think a lot of people don't actually laugh out loud when hearing or reading things. A good-natured chuckle maybe, that kind of thing. When Bret said "a big giant pile of penises" I legitimately laughed out loud. A nice, big, hearty surprised guffaw. That's some good stuff.
That's so good to know. It can take years, but you eventually figure out how mad these silly bastards really are. How appropriate that Brett was the guy doing that.
My Top 10 all time in ring workers... 1. Bret/Owen Hart(tie) 3. Flair 4. Savage 5. Mr Perfect 6. Steamboat 7. Kurt Angle 8: Daniel Bryan 9. Dynamite Kid 10. Undertaker
This is a more modernized & unfavorable "in ring" list: 1. Ric Flair 2. Hulk Hogan 3. John Cena 4. The Rock 5. Stone Cold Steve Austin 6. The Undertaker 7. Bruno Sammartino 8. Kurt Angle 9. Bret Hart 10. Shawn Michaels
I guess I've been a fan of wrestling nearly for nearly half my life. I can't say I follow it anymore but I really do enjoy watching these older guys talk about stories from the, "good ol' days". When I first became a fan it was probably because of Hulk Hogan and Hulkamania that had swept the U.S and Canada (where I live). What kept me interested in those days (I was about 8 or 9 or 10 or 11 at the time) was watching and listening to Rowdy Roddy Piper - who remains one of my absolute favourite wrestlers of all time. When the Ultimate Warrior became their "big guy" I lost interest and stopped watching. The Ultimate Warrior was absolutely HORRIBLE!!! Boring as shit!!! What brought me back was the WWF (or now WWE) when they went into the "Attitude Era". The Rock entertained me like no other wrestler and I couldn't get enough of his promos at the time. I loved Mankind too! I wasn't huge on Steve Austin but I did like his war with McMahon...after that faze faded out - I lost interest again and have only gone back in retrospect out of a sense of nostalgia...I do like watching documentaries on those older guys from the '80's though - like this one...
Steve Lombardi was gay. When I was 17 we went to watch the WWF in Fresno we were leaving and saw Steve driving next to us so being dumb kids we followed him and he pulled into a gay bar. So of course it’s the 80’s and we started calling him names. He got so pissed off. We laughed all night over that.
Considering how stuck up serious his is about the business this is hilarious. I wouldn't have watched this video if Greg Valentine hadn't talked about this in another video.

I always thought that was cool I feel like wrestler is nowadays I don't know if they suck or if it's just the writing something needs to change because it's not what it used to be. But that could just be me getting older and looking at something and being like I remember when I was younger wrestling used to be good I mean how many people thought about that during the Attitude Era older men watching it and be like this is garbage and me being like this is great so I don't know if it's just getting older. To me something needs to change in my opinion and it seems like some of these wrestlers are missing their mark on certain moves and it just looks bad
I'm legit in shock that Bret said his fans in England are better than his fans in Canada!!!! Thank goodness Vince didn't ask him to drop the belt in London lol!!!!😂😂😂
I'm starting to think Brett is some kind of idiot savant,between his unbelievable wrestling skills and his super surreal art.
Nice to see Bret actually seeming like he's enjoying himself.
He seems to most of the time; it's merely that the questions people ask, and the videos that get spread around, are the ones about sore topics. Even then, he's not as clearly angry as he used to be when those subjects are brought up... most of the time!
Truthfully, if I was a wrestler and was going through all the shit of being in an envrionment where huge muscular men are trying to convincingly fake beating the shit out of each other multiple days a week, I would want someone like Bret around who can make the off-stage part fun. If I am in a locker room with a man who is over seen feet tall, and someone is drawing things that makes that man laugh that much, it is helping me through the less pleasant parts of the job. Nobody wants to be in a job where it is all serious all of the time, especially not a job like wrestling.
This is just a stand up awesome man. I feel me and him would get along great cause he would never bullshit ya
Chief Jay Strongbow hahaha
I lived through that 80’s era … From watching Mr. Fuji , Moon Dogs , Wild Samoans , Roddy Piper , Big John Studd , Don Muraco , and let me just say …. There was nothing or no one that had the impact and meteoric rise to fame like the Ultimate Warrior … All these other guys were jealous and still are jealous of him because when he became the star of the movie, they were still just extras
I had the original WWF album, and totally blocked the 1993 one out of my mind until watching this. What the fuck was the WWF thinking in 93? lol.
What the Fuck? Bret Heart being a Hentia/Yaoi Artist is fucking wild
Back then it was called being bored
Bret Hart n Jerry the King Lawler should've done a wrestling comic together with there drawings cause they both draw BADASS
Yes Bret is the greatest of all time him and undertaker are my all time favorite
Me too, they're 2 of the best to ever do it.
I used to draw cartoons and funny and offensive stuff on my sisters yearbook. Anything funny I would write whether it was a racist comment or a funny caption. I totally get Bret’s humor and would have done the exact same thing lol
Definitely in the top 100 of all time.
I’d love to see some of the old lockeroom drawings
Someone release a bret sketchbook 😂
I hope he will draw some new stuff before the end.
I'll be honest, I liked some of the gimmick characters in early '90s WWF but I never liked the WWF foie gras merch steamroller - which Bret very much represented as a figurehead of the company. I don't resent Bret and others putting bread and honey on the table but the media saturation hard sell blitzkrieg wasn't my cup of tea. Pink and black overload. I found solace in some of the not-so-over or modestly over characters: Nailz, Doink, Shango, Regal as the snooty lord, Paul Roma's excellence of disqualification.
I realise one or two of those characters are more over with the audience now in retrospect but that's my genuine perspective of the time.
As soon as Bret started participating in shoot interviews, new lease of life in my estimation, acknowledging some of those fringe characters who entertained me back in the day.
I wasn't aware of Bret and Owen coming to England at the time, although if they ever featured on World of Sport television I almost certainly saw those matches. Mart Jones is my #1. Bret doesn't go overboard with praise here but he does acknowledge with an air of respect. A feather in Bret's cap for me.
Truly one of the best that’s ever done it
Bret is the the best story teller!!!
Best there is, Best there was, the BEST THERE EVER WILL BE.
thank you for asking
The wwf invitational is what gravitated me to bret.
Nobody could draw better than Bret.
Top 5 best in-ring 'mainstream' wrestlers ever: Bret Hart, Ric Flair, AJ Styles, Kurt Angle, Daniel Bryan
Benoit over Flair
He sounds weird about the orgies but hes been through alot! I remember his father Stew! The wrestling program in when i was a kid to me was better then wwf! Anyways great wrestler and man!
"Somewhere in the Rockies..."
Hmmm. I wonder who that could possibly be.
Snuka?
@@timperdue228 There was a lot of powder around Snuka, but not the rocky mountain kind.
I'd assume Vader
Vader lmao

Wait, what? This is the funniest thing I’ve ever heard my entire life😭
Living legend! One of my heroes
The term "laugh out loud" is really overused, I think a lot of people don't actually laugh out loud when hearing or reading things. A good-natured chuckle maybe, that kind of thing. When Bret said "a big giant pile of penises" I legitimately laughed out loud. A nice, big, hearty surprised guffaw. That's some good stuff.
Loved the hitman ❤❤❤
Why this man always showing these old interviews 😂😂😂😂
Would love to see Bret do those drawings live
The reason I have an easy time believing Bret Hart is because he is honest about himself.
I just watched an interview where Hulk Hogan is now claiming he came up with Bret's catch phrase 'best there was...'
That doesn't surprise me whatsoever, lol.
@@jenny5309-k3j I know, right?
He'll literally lie about anything and everything.
He said it on WWF before Butt Hurt. Back when the jabroni was in the midcard before the nepotism push.
@@RG-lr4pk Ok, Hulk. Hey how much did you make for Suburban Commando?
This shit was hysterical
Drawing his black coworker hanging from a tree? Based.
Who would have ever imagined bret being a jokester
That's so good to know. It can take years, but you eventually figure out how mad these silly bastards really are. How appropriate that Brett was the guy doing that.
What was that line about Virgil? Lol 🤨

God damn, how long is this one interview? I feel like I've been seeing clips from it pop up on my front page on and off for years now.
bret looks handsome than anyone on his age group. he have that rock star aura
He has aura lol
I guess I've been a fan of wrestling nearly for nearly half my life. I can't say I follow it anymore but I really do enjoy watching these older guys talk about stories from the, "good ol' days". When I first became a fan it was probably because of Hulk Hogan and Hulkamania that had swept the U.S and Canada (where I live). What kept me interested in those days (I was about 8 or 9 or 10 or 11 at the time) was watching and listening to Rowdy Roddy Piper - who remains one of my absolute favourite wrestlers of all time. When the Ultimate Warrior became their "big guy" I lost interest and stopped watching. The Ultimate Warrior was absolutely HORRIBLE!!! Boring as shit!!!
What brought me back was the WWF (or now WWE) when they went into the "Attitude Era". The Rock entertained me like no other wrestler and I couldn't get enough of his promos at the time. I loved Mankind too! I wasn't huge on Steve Austin but I did like his war with McMahon...after that faze faded out - I lost interest again and have only gone back in retrospect out of a sense of nostalgia...I do like watching documentaries on those older guys from the '80's though - like this one...
It takes more of an actor to be a heel and Bump. "Know your role" says the rock.
Steve Lombardi was gay. When I was 17 we went to watch the WWF in Fresno we were leaving and saw Steve driving next to us so being dumb kids we followed him and he pulled into a gay bar. So of course it’s the 80’s and we started calling him names. He got so pissed off. We laughed all night over that.
Considering how stuck up serious his is about the business this is hilarious. I wouldn't have watched this video if Greg Valentine hadn't talked about this in another video.
