    1, Jim Cornette suggested screwing Bret Hart as a joke to Vince as a solution to the problem of Bret leaving. He was not actually involved in the conspiracy.
    2, it's "Kay-fay-buh" not "Kay-fob".
    3, While Brock Lesnar is a big beefy boi, there is no way they could have opened the emergency door at that altitude.
    4, "Mooluh" not "Moo-lah"
    5, Owen Hart was supposed to wrestle The Godfather, not Jeff Jarrett. Also "Jarr-ett" not "Jarr-ott".
    6, "Bruiser Brody" not "The Bruiser Brody".
    7, Chris "Ben-wah" not "Ben-oyt".
    Honestly guys, if you want someone to proofread these things, I'm more than happy to help.

    You didn't finish the Owen Hart controversy. Not only does he die in front of a stunned crowd of fans, friends and family (not that controversial on its own, it was an accident), Vince decided "the show must go on" and they kept the show going forcing the still in shock wrestlers to continue doing promos and having matches. While Owen's death was a tragic accident, continuing the show knowing he had had most certainly died is considered one of the most deplorable things Vince has ever done.
