Watching this made me sad. Owen Hart’s death had so much collateral damage. It traumatized people,and even to this day, it’s tearing apart families. I feel incredibly badly for Bret, for Martha, the entire family, and all his friends.
It’ll be interesting how Bret could handle straight shooting straight back at him. I would argue that just like the click he lobbied for his brother Owens spot. Owen was smaller terrible on the mic, and never had any stand out matches to the level of Shawn or Bret
Bret Hart is clearly a Mark for himself! No one in pro wrestling actually beats anyone. It is all a work! For someone to be as bitter as he is about losing a pre determined match in Canada is the most childish thing possible.
People call this man bitter, can you blame him ? He lost his brother, brother in law, close friends and got screwed In Montreal which haunts him to this day. Atleast he’s honest and still a straight shooter when asked questions 💯
This human piece of trash can't forgive Goldberg for an honest mistake but wants Martha to forgive the evil company that KILLED her husband. No wonder social media loves this loser.
Bret Hart is a man that is so incredibly proud of his career and work ethic. To some it comes across as arrogance but it really isn't. He is brutally honest about literally everything, and calls bullshit with no hesitation. I could listen to his wrestling stories all day. What an absolute legend.
@@DanielJohnson-ko7pi the Owen Hart foundation tournament is tiers above anything WWE has produced in years. And it's on free TV.

Bret Hart hates Shawn Michaels, Triple H, Nash and Hall - the whole Kliq. Can't stop laughing, he's an asshole and so bitter, it's crazy calling them cancer.
+Krillep He's the only one out of all those names you mentioned that isn't an asshole. And if he's bitter so what? He's allowed to be bitter after all the shit he's had to go through and put up with. He's just speaking his mind now and it's great.
JamalTheTitan LOOL 6:25 - He calls them cancer. He's an asshole, stop being biased and take him in defence. Make up, move on, show grace. Life is about forgive and forget.
+Algieron Papadopoulos Great post and I really appreciate the way you dismantled his arrogance with information and examples and then blasted him with some strong insults. Very well done! I don't troll UA-cam insulting people and picking fights, but some turds just ask to be smacked and you smacked this tool.
+Algieron Papadopoulos look, there IS such thing as a real wrestling fan. and I have nothing against any little cena fans cuz my son is 8 and he likes him. no one is claiming to be better than anyone, but the wrestling era Bret came up in is far and beyond anything they have now. that's not being petty or arrogant, that's fact. it was during a time where WWE had serious competition and put on the best shows possible. now they have no competition and most of the matches and content is garbage compared to those days. that is FACT. so to us, that's the real deal, not what's out now. but I am looking forward to seeing sting at night of champions.
+Algieron Papadopoulos also you sound a little bitter there. maybe your just jealous cuz your too young and you missed out on the golden age of wrestling. that's fact my friend, 80s and 90s were just plain better. and that's why almost every wrestler from those times is revered as a LEGEND like Bret Hart. they were the trailblazers, the ones that paved the way. put their bodies on the line with moves that are banned now, took REAL chair shots to the head, not put their hand up like a damn pussy. if you don't like Bret then don't watch this, but don't come in here trying to talk shit about older wrestling fans cuz you think you know better or that we are arrogant, you weren't there in those times I guarantee it or you would be singing a different tune. good wrestling died when ecw and wcw went under. period end of convo, say whatever you want. cry baby
@@playinragz It should not be upto only Owen's wife. Bret should also have a say. Bret had a lot to do with the most important thing after Owen's death : That is that the kids grew up in a financially stable environment. That had a lot to do with winning the law case against wwf. Bret being someone who worked at wwf had insider information of wwf and I am sure that was crucial to win the case. How else do you win a case against Vince ? He is friends with Trump n as much as you do not beleive it , that Trump is the president of the USA. Therefore without the support of Bret who was the most famous person in the industry, I do not see Martha wining a law case against Vince.
My favorite era of wrestling was when Brett was running as champion. His skill was world class. It's amazing how well he could work with other wrestlers of such various size, shapes, and ability.
Good Lord. Every Bret Hart interview, I listen and I think he's absolutely right. But I am constantly clearing my throat the entire time, because he never does.
@HARM The_OG Sorry tell you,but yes, yes a stroke can change your personality. I have seen it in my family. Please read here. It is very enlightening. www.upmc.com/services/rehab/rehab-institute/conditions/stroke/after-stroke
That's Bret for ya. Putting over the greatness of the little people that helped him. I love the guy, but wow he seems super bitter about so much. Although he did praise Piper.
Old school wrestling fan here. Amazing interview. No dumb questions and you handled Bret’s answers professionally. Bret, you’re always one of my fav’s...I never knew you and Roddy were that close. RIP the Rodster.

I have never watched professional wrestling and never cared for it, but I've always had a great deal of respect for Bret Hart and his family. He's a great guy and a very decent man. I wish him all the best in life.
+CommentatorDeluxe Well, I've kind of always known about him or at least since he became famous, back in the day. So, when I see an interview with him online I'll usually watch it. He's a very interesting guy to listen to and he has a lot of great stories, and he also has a great perspective on life. I think he's a decent, honest, humble guy and he's very family oriented and those are qualities that I admire. So, I became a fan of the man, not the wrestler. Oddly enough, I just finished re-watching "Wrestling With Shadows." It's a great documentary and it shows Bret and his family in a really good light. I don't know how someone could watch it and not like Bret and his family.
+CommentatorDeluxe my parents lived in Calgary in the 80's and the Hart's were well known. My father never liked wrestling, nor do I but he would tell stories about hanging out at corner store and the Harts would walk in with no shirts on, chest all stuck out bragging about fights they got in the night before. This was before they got famous in wrestling, not sure what they did before but apparently they were infamous in Calgary during the 80's
***** Bret wrote it himself in his autobiography, he constantly slept with women on the road while having a wife and kids at home. He loved cheating on his wife.
funny how this pops up on my feed after listening to Martha on Talk is Jericho and hearing even more what a disgusting and vile person Vince and WWE is
@@thewaker34 Both are right in their own philosophy. Martha wants everyone to remember Owen as not only good wrestler but also how good of human being he was... And how helpful he was... By Owen Hart Foundation
@@plshelpmeawkdough WWE HOF is a joke though... Money making scheme... WWE have no right to feel anything here... I understand why Bret feels it... But WWE can go fuck themselves... Especially Kevin Dunn
I met Bret once, he was so nice to me. He has so much integrity. HHH and Vince were wrong for doing Bret wrong, especially since he already completed all his contractual dates.
It's not that clear cut. Bret was done in, absolutely, but Bret contributed to some of the actions of the screwjob. He didn't ease the traditions as well.
Kendall Fleming, Bret had creative control on leaving the company. In a sense he was doing Vince a favor by wrestling Shawn at Survivor Series. Bret would have dropped it to Taker, Austin or Shamrock. He still would lost the title, but not Shawn.
@@nanobluelectrobuzz9227 Did you not see how that attitude worked out? Shawn was being a prick, no doubt, everyone said it plain as day. However, Bret was being difficult as well on where to drop the belt. It was about Bret and not what's best for business. I don't know how old you were at the time, but keep in mind what was happening. Monday night wars, Brett was leaving and getting 2M a year so he was winning regardless, Vince had witnessed not too long prior, Alundra Blaze dropping the women's championship belt in the garbage can on WCW television. Tension was high, you think Vince was going to chance Brett taking the belt to WCW? Now they go over all these finishes and etc and Bret says no to all of it. Bret of course was doing this to middle finger Shawn for Shawn middle fingering Brett for the lost my smile move. Yet, Shawn was staying, he was an A hole but he was Wwe's A hole as Jim Cornette stated. A time honored tradition is on your way out you do favors and job and drop the belt to the next guy. Brett said na, so others behind him wouldve pulled the same stunt. Shawn tried it on Austin but Taker said, na. As far as Survivor Series goes, Bret was contractually obligated to wrestle Shawn. If Bret wouldn'tve it wouldve been breach of contract. Creative Control means you have control over how your character is used and booked but not where he can show up under contract. Now you can say all of it with CC but back them it had its limits. It was fucked all the way around but when you have Jim Cornette, Nash, Hall, HHH, Jim Ross, Austin, Taker, Mark Henry, all saying Bret was being a baby too, guess what I'm inclined to belive them
@@davemustaine6694 You're being intellectually dishonest, you picked one name out of all the names I mentioned and said well if HHH said it, then, I'd belive anything. Absorb all of the context, I said if Cornette, Austin, Hall, Nash, Taker, HHH, Henry, and throw in Hebner were all saying Brett was being a baby, then, I'm inclined to belive them. Brett had a lot of love back stage, even the people that really liked him said he was being a baby. You went nope, he said HHH name, it's a lie. Stop it! It wasn't him who said it alone
@@squadabingo9113 I just thought he was cool. I first saw him as the Blue Blazer and later with the New Foundation , his offense was unique. I really enjoyed his King of Harts gimmick, it was the shit to six year old me. I thought it was hilarious when he would rip the glasses and taunt children in the audience.
@@th3gr81 thats awesome. Him and his brother were definitely something special. Always stayed loyal. I wonder why they had him come down on a zip line/ cable. Probably because Sting was doing it in wcw like every week and Sting had crazy ratings
I was always an NWA/WCW guy. Bret was the one WWF/WWE guy I liked and followed. In a company of cartoon characters, he was one of the few who at least pretended that the company was more than just a vehicle for selling toys to kids.
I’m so proud to say I have met Bret twice in person. The first time I arrived at the event he was going to be at roughly 9 hours before the doors opened since I got a cheap seat and thought I would have to get there mega early if I wanted to have a prayer of meeting Bret. It turned out Bret wasn’t there yet, and when he was driven to the venue, instead of sneaking Bret through a back entrance, they took him to the front, and I got to talk with him briefly and shake his hand before anyone else there that day, as I was still the only fan waiting at the door at that time. I didn’t get a picture or autograph until later that night when he was actually signing and meeting fans, but it was so cool of the people in charge of the promotion to let me have that minute or so of time when he didn’t have to talk with me at all until it was time to meet fans. That’s a memory I will treasure forever for sure.
My hero since childhood, now I am listening to him after 25 years, and I couldn't be more proud to have chosen him as my hero! very honest and real to the core! I hope he lives happy for a very long time because the day he passes away I will probably cry myself to death...
@@heather1872 It should not be upto only his wife. Bret should also have a say. Important thing is the kids grew up in a financialy stable environment.

Bret is totally right about Martha and how she handles Owen's legeacy,etc. Bret personally should have full control over anything related too Owen instead of her.
Heretic Life it’s true. She may have been his wife and the mother of his children but man she’s indirectly shitting on Owen’s legacy. Bret is his BLOOD, I’m sure Bret would agree that Owen would have wanted it that way too. You stupid dick-head.
@@miamibrando3471 Owen really wouldn’t have cared about his wrestling legacy because he didn’t want to be a wrestler. Owen said this himself in a shoot interview.
After, Owen passed Martha stopped being a Hart . Period. She is legally allowed to remarry now. She is not blood related, like kids are, and she has brainwashed the kids to in my opinion.
They lived wrestling it was in their blood. I can understand martha's feelings, but Bret is the greatest to perform in the ring, Owen could easily have stepped in his place when Bret left, but WWE failed him. Do not allow this man's greatness be forgotten, Owen was a great performer just like his brother.
If anyone can beat Cancer, Bret Hart can. He put the Stroke in a headlock, young as he is. You (Bret) are a hero. We are not important, you and your family are but we all love you. Fight hard. You are an inspiration.
Bionic EIbow clearly hes pointing out how much he resembles his dad at old age which alot of ppl do like when u say to a kid, “u look exactly like ur mum”.
Bret was my favorite growing up, still probably the best tactician ever. Owen was always an exciting to watch. Bot Owen and Bret are top 10 all time in my opinion.
That's not entirely true. H had to deal with all the fallout of the Kliq when everyone left. He had to go town a pitiful losing streak down to the bottom tier and work his way back up. To say he didn't earn a lot of what he became is wrong. He was smart and bit the bullet until he leveraged himself to where he is now. That takes a lot of commitment and strategizing. Do I think he married Steph for favor and position? Oh yeah, goes without saying. Has he done horrible things to other wrestlers and to his ex Chyna for personal gain? Absolutely. From a business standpoint he's one of a kind. For that I respect him. But as a person he's a less than noble person. Although he has shown a soft side for kids. He's like anyone else. We all have good and evil. It's not my place to judge him.
There are times when I go back and watch some of his stuff and I think I underrate HHH at times. But the quote "He is the guy, that works with the guy that is drawing all the money" is very true. Also, Austin said it as well "He is not as over as someone who gets all that face time on TV should be". I think HHH benefited from there not being any competition from a rival wrestling organization. When he booked himself over Sting it was a reminder he (and Vince) are selfish pieces. Even HHH's good buddies weren't on board with that move LOL.
Not even close this guy is my hero but I have to say he has balls to speak his mind, even if I disagree with him sometimes, he's honest and down to earth.
no, you wouldn't be saying that if it was someone in your family. her husband died because of wwe's stupidity, if Vince would've let Owen go to wcw with his brother like he asked he would be alive because they wouldn't have had him 70ft in the air on a harness. on top of all that wwe didn't even have the respect to stop the show and i don't wanna hear about the show goes on because of Shane or Stephanie fell from there you can bet Vince would've stopped the show then.
i don't think she should. wwe has fought with her on everything, they didn't wanna pay her royalties, they used footage in other dvd's she originally said she didn't want to be used, these fucking pricks need to leave her alone. if wwe are so good why don't they take all the money they are trying to make off these dvd's and give it to Martha and her children? what they kill someone and wanna make money off the guy really?
no they didn't cut the cable or anything like that i'm not saying that, they had a guy up there in a situation he was not comfortable with and Vince didn't bother going up and asking him if he was okay with doing it.
I watched the Vice interview of Owen first. I got the strong impression that Martha was going over the top with her anger towards the WWE. The biggest wrestling family in history has the biggest thorn in its heel. Hope she sees the light, and lets the world see how great he was.
If Owen was alive nobody would suggest he should be in the hall of fame. Or even have a best of dvd of him Ham n eggers don’t get in the hall of fame. Owen wasn’t great he was Bret’s little brother that’s how he got a spot. Shot on the mic. Shorty characters the blue blazer? Nugget Owen. He sucked and just got degraded his last several years
Owen was a great worker, heel, babyface, singles, Tag. He literally crushed anything sent his way. I truly believe if he didn't die he should've got the push HHH got.
Great interview and an excellent interviewer asking pointed, relevant questions that Bret didn't shy away from answering. I worship Bret, my favourite in-ring presence of all time, rivalled only by his brother and Kurt Angle for the ability to tell a story in a match. He is bitter about the SJ and rightfully so, it started his life on the road to hell, if that didn't happen, I don't think Owen would be dead, as the course of history and Owen becoming the Blue Blazer may not have happened. Bret however does have a tendency to judge a wrestler on what he did for him rather than wrestlers in general, he calls out Hulk, Warrior and Jake (had no idea he had an issue with Jake or that Jake didn't help others) for the first and foremost not helping HIM...then others in that order, that's the only thing that bugs me in an otherwise brutally candid interview full of raw emotion
@@jkdunk20001988 Watch his RF Video shoot interview (if you can get it for free) from the early/mid 2000s. He's clearly came up with some signal with his foot or something else off camera to have Rob Feinstein remind him of his train of thought. And even then he just asks directly to be reminded a few times. It definitely took a toll on him, but it does seem like he's recovered at least a lot.
This is a prime example of why Shane McMahon should be put in charge of WWE when Vince finally gives it up because obviously older superstars wouldn't respect Triple H and wouldn't have that much to do with the WWE in the future.
Bret is always candid in interviews, I sure hope he and Martha have been able to settle differences. This is an older interview, best of luck on your channel.
It's interesting to see Bret talk about Owen and his widow Martha, it's an interesting question about allowing the company responsible for his death to celebrate or indeed profit from his career, that aspect seems to be his wife's main contention whereas Bret wants to celebrate the career of a great wrestler which far predates his time in WWE, regardless of who it profits. It's hard to choose a side in this instance as both have legitimate gripes.
What Bret is failing to realize is that Martha was Owen's wife and if my wife was killed due to the company she works for negligence I wouldn't want to be involved with that company nor would I want my wife's legacy tainted with her former employers shitty way of an apology by trying to put my wife into a bullshit hall of fame that isn't even real to begin with or any other bullshit memorabilia they can think of. So, after watching this and the owen hart episode of dark side of the ring I've come to the conclusion that Martha is right and Bret has his head up his ass.
Exactly, I understand him wanting his brother to be recognized for his wrestling but WWE is not the way to do that. Vince wants to do that so he can make money. As soon as Owens name is attached to the HoF he will be trying to make a buck by selling collector editions boxsets for his matches, action figures, video game character models, etc. The HoF is simply a contract selling away your character and likeness for the rest of your life. Look at what happened to Sting. So I totally understand Martha not wanting Vince to make even a penny off of Owen, and I’ll be honest I don’t think Owen would want Vince to make money off him either. I think he is content that his wrestling, and his commitment to being an amazing dad speaking for itself and will live on forever.
@TheMk002 in the dark side of the ring documentary about owen hart certain hart family members actually helps Vince McMahon in his lawsuit case so they knew what Martha was going to be throwing at them.
You’re a complete idiot if you think bret is failing to realiZe Martha is owens wife. Bret was at Martha’s side for two years when the rest of the hart family wasn’t. Just cause they had a falling out later and bret did this interview doesent mean Bret failed to realize maths was owens wife. Who was there to hug Martha when she saw her dead husband for the first time in the casket? It was bret. So don’t listen to one interviewer and sound ridiculous like bret isn’t thinking of Martha when for two years he went against his own family through the lawsuit to back her. Do a little reading before talking like an idiot.
Owen Hart really needs to be in the WWE hall of fame, I mean Owen was one of the best wresters of all time in my opinion despite never winning the world championship, he always made sure he wrestled a great match and I know Martha still misses her husband and that's understandable and Owen was a family man but she needs to realize that she really is indeed erasing Owen's legacy and what better way to honor Owen's career by inducting him to the hall of fame!!
No one can argue that Owen deserves to be in any pro wrestling HOF, but the WWE HOF is a joke, no independent committee, no voting, not even a location, just a Boss that picks and chooses who he can profit from and if he changes his mind he can kick them out, that's no real HOF in my opinion.
Allowing the WWF to induct Owen would be capitulating to Vince, which is what he is used to having happen. Why let McMahon off easy for ultimately being responsible for Owen’s death? That would be a bitter pill for her (and their kids) to swallow, after all she has done in his name to uphold his name, memory and legacy. I love Bret Hart but side fully with Martha.
Bret Hart used to annoy me in his interviews because he's so bitter but now that I'm older I appreciate him. I love the brutal honesty. Bret Hart is a great man.
I see both sides of this one: Yes, I''d love to see Owen's legacy honored, but I also understand Martha's not wanting McMahon to profit off the memory of a man who died needlessly because he hired an inexperienced rigger using equipment never designed for the task all to save about 2 seconds of airtime!
Based on the downward spiral WWE stock is on, it's plummeting ratings, and the inside speculation that Vince might be looking to sell... will there still be a WWE by the time she passes?
@Andre Ricardo Bryant Watch the "The Dark Side of the Ring" episode on Owen's death. Both Oje and Athena share their mother's opinion that they have no interest in allowing the company they feel killed their father to EVER benefit off him. If Vince is serious about a video collection of Owen's life/career, he'd offer to donate 100% of ALL profits, (as established by an independent auditor), to the Owen Hart Foundation... but, of course, we all know he'd never go for letting a nickle go... and, as I said, the HoF is out, period!
@Andre Ricardo Bryant Hense the suggestion to donate 100% of the profits; WWE can recoup it's costs, but not a penny more... but knowing how Vince does business, (and the criminal element in a position of power his wife is working for), that's why I said the project would require an independent auditor to keep everybody "honest".
@Andre Ricardo Bryant Well, than Vince better look elsewhere because those kids aren't interested and God himself (who is probably still mad about losing to Vince and Shane at Backlash 2006) wouldn't be able to change that.
Bret is by far the best wrestler of all time! In and out of the squared circle... Always classy... i was a kid and i gave up on wrestling after Wrestlemania X... After the Hitman, real pro wrestling was over...
I like Brett's honesty. Today, the "behind the scene's", is controlled, and fans that follow everything from the shows, to where are they and what's next, still question what's true. This interview and many more from Brett, leave no questions and straight honesty, like it or not, it is what it is.
Two so stark and contrasting viewpoints on the same issue Bret views Wrestling as something that gave him and his family everything Martha views Wrestling that took away everything from her and her family So viewpoints differ..but no doubt both of them love Owen Hart
Martha has NOT done anything to Erase Owen's Career, she just DOESNT want the WWE to make Any More Money off his Death, which is what this Documentary was gonna do. I like Bret, but this right here, this is just a Shitty Attitude. He wasnt married to Owen, he didnt live with Owen every day. In my Opinion I hope that Martha CONTINUES to keep this Out of WWE hands.......
I understand completely Bret Hart my father had a stroke too 2003 I know it’s very difficult to see someone u love struggling to get back to normal it’s not an easy road to travel god bless you Bret Hart one of my favourite legend wrestlers ever
What I love about Bret. He’s not afraid to tell it like it is. He don’t give a fuck about the backlash or what WWE might do to him or not call him. He don’t care, he’s a good guy and he doesn’t bullshit you!! Much respect!!
Not allowing Owen's image on anything WWE related isn't erasing him. WWE is a fucking joke, and them putting him in some bogus hall of fame completely dictated by the performers relationship with Vince...what would be the purpose? would it legitimize Owen anymore than he already is? How would it benefit anybody besides the WWE?
+Sub Dork Some cheesy award show completely dictated by Vince is only a celebration of publicity for WWE. If they could negotiate a deal for an Owen Hart documentary that would be great but I really don't see how people think this corny Hall of Fame has any legitimacy
+Jesot X if guys weren't in or out entirely based upon how well they currently get along with Vince...then it would have some legitimacy. But this is the WWE hall of fame...not the professional wrestling hall of fame. and talking about a wrestlers career accomplishments through the lens of somebody as biased towards his own company's performers as Vince is, I don't know why anybody would take that shit seriously.

Not to mention his career was ended by a muscle bound dangerous worker in Goldberg, and also suffered a stroke
He has every reason to be bitter.
This human piece of trash can't forgive Goldberg for an honest mistake but wants Martha to forgive the evil company that KILLED her husband. No wonder social media loves this loser.
And all of it was indirect results of him being greedy.
From watching his documentary it’s probably how he was raised by his dad… like harsh truths and tough love kinda mentality a little maybe
Bret Hart is a man that is so incredibly proud of his career and work ethic. To some it comes across as arrogance but it really isn't. He is brutally honest about literally everything, and calls bullshit with no hesitation. I could listen to his wrestling stories all day. What an absolute legend.

JamalTheTitan LOOL 6:25 - He calls them cancer. He's an asshole, stop being biased and take him in defence. Make up, move on, show grace. Life is about forgive and forget.
And hes still a HERO to the American fans... the REAL fans... Old School
damn right.
+Algieron Papadopoulos pro wrestling fans are the worst actually. Very fickle and petty.
+Algieron Papadopoulos Great post and I really appreciate the way you dismantled his arrogance with information and examples and then blasted him with some strong insults. Very well done! I don't troll UA-cam insulting people and picking fights, but some turds just ask to be smacked and you smacked this tool.
+Algieron Papadopoulos look, there IS such thing as a real wrestling fan. and I have nothing against any little cena fans cuz my son is 8 and he likes him. no one is claiming to be better than anyone, but the wrestling era Bret came up in is far and beyond anything they have now. that's not being petty or arrogant, that's fact. it was during a time where WWE had serious competition and put on the best shows possible. now they have no competition and most of the matches and content is garbage compared to those days. that is FACT. so to us, that's the real deal, not what's out now. but I am looking forward to seeing sting at night of champions.
+Algieron Papadopoulos also you sound a little bitter there. maybe your just jealous cuz your too young and you missed out on the golden age of wrestling. that's fact my friend, 80s and 90s were just plain better. and that's why almost every wrestler from those times is revered as a LEGEND like Bret Hart. they were the trailblazers, the ones that paved the way. put their bodies on the line with moves that are banned now, took REAL chair shots to the head, not put their hand up like a damn pussy. if you don't like Bret then don't watch this, but don't come in here trying to talk shit about older wrestling fans cuz you think you know better or that we are arrogant, you weren't there in those times I guarantee it or you would be singing a different tune. good wrestling died when ecw and wcw went under. period end of convo, say whatever you want. cry baby
Old school legend… when he came to South Africa he signed autographs for everyone and he spoke to everyone… my all time favorite
Bret, you proved to be the ultimate warrior in the ring. You proved to be a warrior in life with your stroke. *You can do it again* Beat the *Cancer*
8:00 mark if you here to hear of Owen. It's a great interview though so you should listen to it all.
Thank You ☺️
Thanks, almost clicked, but I do want to listen to the whole thing
Richard Sejour thank YOU!
how can anyone doubt what bret has to say? he's such a straight shooter.
+Cameron Huff I see what you did there
@John Druin right, getting acolade for an oversight.
He's a pos. Always in business for himself
"It's The Shits"
He’s such a jam up guy
That interview was worth it, everything in that was straight up, no sugar coating anything.
Go watch the video of his dad. How Bret fucked the family outs $93 million! He needs to go away, sorry.
@@playinragz Smith Hart isn't Bret's dad, moron. And that $93 million is made up BS from Smith Hart.
"Sure there's an Owen Hart DVD but it's the shits" Absolute gold
@@playinragz It should not be upto only Owen's wife. Bret should also have a say.
Bret had a lot to do with the most important thing after Owen's death :
That is that the kids grew up in a financially stable environment. That had a lot to do with winning the law case against wwf.
Bret being someone who worked at wwf had insider information of wwf and I am sure that was crucial to win the case. How else do you win a case against Vince ? He is friends with Trump n as much as you do not beleive it , that Trump is the president of the USA.
Therefore without the support of Bret who was the most famous person in the industry, I do not see Martha wining a law case against Vince.
That 90s Show oh you know the family? Shmuck
LOL bret just doesn't care. i love it. the straightest shooter in the business.
My favorite era of wrestling was when Brett was running as champion. His skill was world class. It's amazing how well he could work with other wrestlers of such various size, shapes, and ability.
Good Lord. Every Bret Hart interview, I listen and I think he's absolutely right. But I am constantly clearing my throat the entire time, because he never does.
🤣🤣🤣

I love how this bitter, intense interview is happening at a nonprofit barbecue.
He always complaining..is he ever happy??
@HARM The_OG Sorry tell you,but yes, yes a stroke can change your personality. I have seen it in my family. Please read here. It is very enlightening. www.upmc.com/services/rehab/rehab-institute/conditions/stroke/after-stroke

Lol

I have never watched professional wrestling and never cared for it, but I've always had a great deal of respect for Bret Hart and his family. He's a great guy and a very decent man. I wish him all the best in life.
+Brian Cox Where do you know Bret Hart and his family from when you never watched wrestling?
just asking
+CommentatorDeluxe Well, I've kind of always known about him or at least since he became famous, back in the day. So, when I see an interview with him online I'll usually watch it. He's a very interesting guy to listen to and he has a lot of great stories, and he also has a great perspective on life. I think he's a decent, honest, humble guy and he's very family oriented and those are qualities that I admire. So, I became a fan of the man, not the wrestler. Oddly enough, I just finished re-watching "Wrestling With Shadows." It's a great documentary and it shows Bret and his family in a really good light. I don't know how someone could watch it and not like Bret and his family.
+CommentatorDeluxe my parents lived in Calgary in the 80's and the Hart's were well known. My father never liked wrestling, nor do I but he would tell stories about hanging out at corner store and the Harts would walk in with no shirts on, chest all stuck out bragging about fights they got in the night before. This was before they got famous in wrestling, not sure what they did before but apparently they were infamous in Calgary during the 80's
+Bunch Marketing Where'd you hear that now? -_-
***** Bret wrote it himself in his autobiography, he constantly slept with women on the road while having a wife and kids at home. He loved cheating on his wife.
10:00 "Its the shits" **Bret Hart music plays for 2 second**
🤣🤣🤣🤣
funny how this pops up on my feed after listening to Martha on Talk is Jericho and hearing even more what a disgusting and vile person Vince and WWE is
The way Bret talks, she's the piece of shit in the situation.
@@thewaker34 Both are right in their own philosophy. Martha wants everyone to remember Owen as not only good wrestler but also how good of human being he was... And how helpful he was... By Owen Hart Foundation
I no right
Jeff no ones talking about the Owen Hart foundation like they are with him getting in the HOF or whatever lol
@@plshelpmeawkdough WWE HOF is a joke though... Money making scheme... WWE have no right to feel anything here... I understand why Bret feels it... But WWE can go fuck themselves... Especially Kevin Dunn
I met Bret once, he was so nice to me. He has so much integrity. HHH and Vince were wrong for doing Bret wrong, especially since he already completed all his contractual dates.
It's not that clear cut. Bret was done in, absolutely, but Bret contributed to some of the actions of the screwjob. He didn't ease the traditions as well.
Kendall Fleming, Bret had creative control on leaving the company. In a sense he was doing Vince a favor by wrestling Shawn at Survivor Series. Bret would have dropped it to Taker, Austin or Shamrock. He still would lost the title, but not Shawn.
@@nanobluelectrobuzz9227 Did you not see how that attitude worked out? Shawn was being a prick, no doubt, everyone said it plain as day. However, Bret was being difficult as well on where to drop the belt. It was about Bret and not what's best for business. I don't know how old you were at the time, but keep in mind what was happening. Monday night wars, Brett was leaving and getting 2M a year so he was winning regardless, Vince had witnessed not too long prior, Alundra Blaze dropping the women's championship belt in the garbage can on WCW television. Tension was high, you think Vince was going to chance Brett taking the belt to WCW? Now they go over all these finishes and etc and Bret says no to all of it. Bret of course was doing this to middle finger Shawn for Shawn middle fingering Brett for the lost my smile move. Yet, Shawn was staying, he was an A hole but he was Wwe's A hole as Jim Cornette stated. A time honored tradition is on your way out you do favors and job and drop the belt to the next guy. Brett said na, so others behind him wouldve pulled the same stunt. Shawn tried it on Austin but Taker said, na.
As far as Survivor Series goes, Bret was contractually obligated to wrestle Shawn. If Bret wouldn'tve it wouldve been breach of contract. Creative Control means you have control over how your character is used and booked but not where he can show up under contract. Now you can say all of it with CC but back them it had its limits. It was fucked all the way around but when you have Jim Cornette, Nash, Hall, HHH, Jim Ross, Austin, Taker, Mark Henry, all saying Bret was being a baby too, guess what I'm inclined to belive them
@@LanternEnergy you'd believe the sky was falling if hunter told you that
@@davemustaine6694 You're being intellectually dishonest, you picked one name out of all the names I mentioned and said well if HHH said it, then, I'd belive anything. Absorb all of the context, I said if Cornette, Austin, Hall, Nash, Taker, HHH, Henry, and throw in Hebner were all saying Brett was being a baby, then, I'm inclined to belive them. Brett had a lot of love back stage, even the people that really liked him said he was being a baby. You went nope, he said HHH name, it's a lie. Stop it! It wasn't him who said it alone
Can't believe this is already 4 yrs. Ago. This is the most honest Interview i've ever seen 😲
at the start the guy tries to make joke about 'ribs' but it just flew over Brets head lol
Fay Umtoy I think he got it he just didn't think it was funny or clever.
Bret Hart never really had much of a sense of humor, from the beginning of his career to now. So I'm pretty sure he got it still
Nick Corvello I still like Bret was one of my favourite wrestlers but he seems like a cranky old fucker
Probably because ribbing people was Owens thing, probably makes him think of Owen when someone uses the term 'rib'
Fay Umtoy I think he got it but totally no sold it, he does that a lot.
Popped me for sure!
Everyone could tell the kind of person Brett was. Him and Owen were great wrestlers back in the day of legends and when wrestling was actually good.
Brett over time has become my all time number 1 wrestler. He truly is “The best there is, The best there ever was, and The best there ever will be”.

I just thought he was cool. I first saw him as the Blue Blazer and later with the New Foundation , his offense was unique. I really enjoyed his King of Harts gimmick, it was the shit to six year old me. I thought it was hilarious when he would rip the glasses and taunt children in the audience.
@@th3gr81 thats awesome. Him and his brother were definitely something special. Always stayed loyal. I wonder why they had him come down on a zip line/ cable. Probably because Sting was doing it in wcw like every week and Sting had crazy ratings
I was always an NWA/WCW guy. Bret was the one WWF/WWE guy I liked and followed. In a company of cartoon characters, he was one of the few who at least pretended that the company was more than just a vehicle for selling toys to kids.
This guy is good interviewer.n respects the sport.
I’m so proud to say I have met Bret twice in person. The first time I arrived at the event he was going to be at roughly 9 hours before the doors opened since I got a cheap seat and thought I would have to get there mega early if I wanted to have a prayer of meeting Bret. It turned out Bret wasn’t there yet, and when he was driven to the venue, instead of sneaking Bret through a back entrance, they took him to the front, and I got to talk with him briefly and shake his hand before anyone else there that day, as I was still the only fan waiting at the door at that time. I didn’t get a picture or autograph until later that night when he was actually signing and meeting fans, but it was so cool of the people in charge of the promotion to let me have that minute or so of time when he didn’t have to talk with me at all until it was time to meet fans. That’s a memory I will treasure forever for sure.
Thanks for sharing! .. amazing story !
I wasn't ever really a Bret Hart fan, but I love watching his interviews. I respect anyone who's not afraid to speak their mind.
Sad to think that Owen, Bulldog, Anvil and Pillmam have been gone for so long
My hero since childhood, now I am listening to him after 25 years, and I couldn't be more proud to have chosen him as my hero! very honest and real to the core! I hope he lives happy for a very long time because the day he passes away I will probably cry myself to death...
Weird making someone you never met your hero

Owen was a phenomenal talent. It's a shame that the rivalry with "The Steiner Brother's" didn't last long. A prolonged rivalry would have been remembered for ages to come.

Heretic Life it’s true. She may have been his wife and the mother of his children but man she’s indirectly shitting on Owen’s legacy. Bret is his BLOOD, I’m sure Bret would agree that Owen would have wanted it that way too. You stupid dick-head.
@@miamibrando3471 Owen really wouldn’t have cared about his wrestling legacy because he didn’t want to be a wrestler. Owen said this himself in a shoot interview.

I got to meet Bret after a show in 1988 , he hung around signing autographs for kids . Great wrestler and great person.
I'll say one thing about the Hitman he don't hold back not even a bit
Yes

If I was Martha, I wouldn't let WWE to make money off of him either. I don't blame her one bit.
Amen to that. If they cared enough about him then they would’ve gave enough of a damn to ensure his safety.
Yea it’s a tricky one because at the same time you kinda want people to see the guys life
@@tbonepumper5623 yes. Furthermore Bret has a right to say in this matter.
I agree
After, Owen passed Martha stopped being a Hart . Period. She is legally allowed to remarry now. She is not blood related, like kids are, and she has brainwashed the kids to in my opinion.
Martha doesn't want her husband's killers profiting off his legacy and Bret still can't see past wrestling
If she didn't that $18 million settlement she would let them do anything to make money off of Owen
They lived wrestling it was in their blood. I can understand martha's feelings, but Bret is the greatest to perform in the ring, Owen could easily have stepped in his place when Bret left, but WWE failed him. Do not allow this man's greatness be forgotten, Owen was a great performer just like his brother.
It's just a different point of view. Both want Owen to be remembered, they just disagree on the ways.

anyone starting to see Stu in Bret's face these days?
Of course it's his father numbskull
Naw Bret looks like the mom... Owen looks like stu
Everyone in the Hart family has that Stu Hart look.
Bionic EIbow clearly hes pointing out how much he resembles his dad at old age which alot of ppl do like when u say to a kid, “u look exactly like ur mum”.

THE EXCELLENCE OF EXECUTION
"it took a man in my day to wear pink."
Most perfect pro wrestler to ever live
Triple H is a garbage wrestler who builds his career on burying talent, Legends, and being married to Stephanie. I'm glad Bret tells it like it is.
That's not entirely true. H had to deal with all the fallout of the Kliq when everyone left. He had to go town a pitiful losing streak down to the bottom tier and work his way back up. To say he didn't earn a lot of what he became is wrong. He was smart and bit the bullet until he leveraged himself to where he is now. That takes a lot of commitment and strategizing. Do I think he married Steph for favor and position? Oh yeah, goes without saying. Has he done horrible things to other wrestlers and to his ex Chyna for personal gain? Absolutely. From a business standpoint he's one of a kind. For that I respect him. But as a person he's a less than noble person. Although he has shown a soft side for kids. He's like anyone else. We all have good and evil. It's not my place to judge him.
A garbage wrestler yeah you know nothing triple h is a student of the game he is one of the hardest workers ever in the buisness...
There are times when I go back and watch some of his stuff and I think I underrate HHH at times. But the quote "He is the guy, that works with the guy that is drawing all the money" is very true. Also, Austin said it as well "He is not as over as someone who gets all that face time on TV should be".
I think HHH benefited from there not being any competition from a rival wrestling organization. When he booked himself over Sting it was a reminder he (and Vince) are selfish pieces. Even HHH's good buddies weren't on board with that move LOL.
What did Hunter have to do with the screw job??
MANGUKAHA AOTEAROA Name me a great hhh match against anyone not named shawn michaels.
The best there is, the best there was and the best there ever will be!
Not even close this guy is my hero but I have to say he has balls to speak his mind, even if I disagree with him sometimes, he's honest and down to earth.
"Sure there's an Owen Hart Dvd but it's the shits"
+Declan O'Rourke yeah don't blame wwe because kids don't get to see their father because of them.
yeah that's wwe's fault. she doesn't wanna work with them because they killed her husband.
no, you wouldn't be saying that if it was someone in your family. her husband died because of wwe's stupidity, if Vince would've let Owen go to wcw with his brother like he asked he would be alive because they wouldn't have had him 70ft in the air on a harness. on top of all that wwe didn't even have the respect to stop the show and i don't wanna hear about the show goes on because of Shane or Stephanie fell from there you can bet Vince would've stopped the show then.
i don't think she should. wwe has fought with her on everything, they didn't wanna pay her royalties, they used footage in other dvd's she originally said she didn't want to be used, these fucking pricks need to leave her alone. if wwe are so good why don't they take all the money they are trying to make off these dvd's and give it to Martha and her children? what they kill someone and wanna make money off the guy really?
no they didn't cut the cable or anything like that i'm not saying that, they had a guy up there in a situation he was not comfortable with and Vince didn't bother going up and asking him if he was okay with doing it.
I watched the Vice interview of Owen first. I got the strong impression that Martha was going over the top with her anger towards the WWE. The biggest wrestling family in history has the biggest thorn in its heel. Hope she sees the light, and lets the world see how great he was.
If Owen was alive nobody would suggest he should be in the hall of fame. Or even have a best of dvd of him
Ham n eggers don’t get in the hall of fame.
Owen wasn’t great he was Bret’s little brother that’s how he got a spot. Shot on the mic. Shorty characters the blue blazer? Nugget Owen.
He sucked and just got degraded his last several years
He was asked about Jack Brisco and then went into a long monologue about Montreal. I love it.
"Bret, eat a hot dog?"
"Why?"
"Because you can't stop shooting when you're hungry......better?"
"Ric Flair can only wrestle one kind of match"
"...oh"
lol
Lmao 😂😂😂
I love this comment.
I will always love the Excellence of Execution
Owen was a great worker, heel, babyface, singles, Tag. He literally crushed anything sent his way. I truly believe if he didn't die he should've got the push HHH got.
They both had the nose for it 👃
Great interview and an excellent interviewer asking pointed, relevant questions that Bret didn't shy away from answering.
I worship Bret, my favourite in-ring presence of all time, rivalled only by his brother and Kurt Angle for the ability to tell a story in a match. He is bitter about the SJ and rightfully so, it started his life on the road to hell, if that didn't happen, I don't think Owen would be dead, as the course of history and Owen becoming the Blue Blazer may not have happened. Bret however does have a tendency to judge a wrestler on what he did for him rather than wrestlers in general, he calls out Hulk, Warrior and Jake (had no idea he had an issue with Jake or that Jake didn't help others) for the first and foremost not helping HIM...then others in that order, that's the only thing that bugs me in an otherwise brutally candid interview full of raw emotion
i definitely agree with what he said about the Owen Hart DVD! The fans miss Owen!
That "ribs" joke went right over his head.
@ERIC JAMES what video did you just watch? This one features Bret Hart at a BBQ.. right at the start🤦♂️
I thought the same thing but you gotta remember he had a pretty bad stroke
@@jkdunk20001988 Watch his RF Video shoot interview (if you can get it for free) from the early/mid 2000s. He's clearly came up with some signal with his foot or something else off camera to have Rob Feinstein remind him of his train of thought. And even then he just asks directly to be reminded a few times. It definitely took a toll on him, but it does seem like he's recovered at least a lot.
sammmm87
I think You should learn basic manners.
Same here honestly. I thought Bret's response was great.
This is a prime example of why Shane McMahon should be put in charge of WWE when Vince finally gives it up because obviously older superstars wouldn't respect Triple H and wouldn't have that much to do with the WWE in the future.
Turd Ferguson Well who doesn’t lmao
Good observation
Great interview. Great role model. Putting his glasses in those kids before matches. He is a good man
I love his honesty. Says it how it is
Top 5 90s memories: Super Nintendo, Street Fighter 2, Nirvana, Jean Claude VanDame, Bret Hart.
Bret is always candid in interviews, I sure hope he and Martha have been able to settle differences.
This is an older interview, best of luck on your channel.
She's said she forgives the family, but don't think they want anything to do with each other.
It's interesting to see Bret talk about Owen and his widow Martha, it's an interesting question about allowing the company responsible for his death to celebrate or indeed profit from his career, that aspect seems to be his wife's main contention whereas Bret wants to celebrate the career of a great wrestler which far predates his time in WWE, regardless of who it profits. It's hard to choose a side in this instance as both have legitimate gripes.
What Bret is failing to realize is that Martha was Owen's wife and if my wife was killed due to the company she works for negligence I wouldn't want to be involved with that company nor would I want my wife's legacy tainted with her former employers shitty way of an apology by trying to put my wife into a bullshit hall of fame that isn't even real to begin with or any other bullshit memorabilia they can think of. So, after watching this and the owen hart episode of dark side of the ring I've come to the conclusion that Martha is right and Bret has his head up his ass.
Exactly, I understand him wanting his brother to be recognized for his wrestling but WWE is not the way to do that. Vince wants to do that so he can make money. As soon as Owens name is attached to the HoF he will be trying to make a buck by selling collector editions boxsets for his matches, action figures, video game character models, etc. The HoF is simply a contract selling away your character and likeness for the rest of your life. Look at what happened to Sting. So I totally understand Martha not wanting Vince to make even a penny off of Owen, and I’ll be honest I don’t think Owen would want Vince to make money off him either. I think he is content that his wrestling, and his commitment to being an amazing dad speaking for itself and will live on forever.
Superman23 yeah she’s his wife but Bret is his brother.
So you'd be selfish and do what you wanted not what they wanted?
@TheMk002 in the dark side of the ring documentary about owen hart certain hart family members actually helps Vince McMahon in his lawsuit case so they knew what Martha was going to be throwing at them.
You’re a complete idiot if you think bret is failing to realiZe Martha is owens wife. Bret was at Martha’s side for two years when the rest of the hart family wasn’t. Just cause they had a falling out later and bret did this interview doesent mean Bret failed to realize maths was owens wife.
Who was there to hug Martha when she saw her dead husband for the first time in the casket? It was bret.
So don’t listen to one interviewer and sound ridiculous like bret isn’t thinking of Martha when for two years he went against his own family through the lawsuit to back her. Do a little reading before talking like an idiot.
Owen Hart really needs to be in the WWE hall of fame, I mean Owen was one of the best wresters of all time in my opinion despite never winning the world championship, he always made sure he wrestled a great match and I know Martha still misses her husband and that's understandable and Owen was a family man but she needs to realize that she really is indeed erasing Owen's legacy and what better way to honor Owen's career by inducting him to the hall of fame!!
It won't happen tho as his wife won't let them, bret even said that in the past that she won't let them.
No one can argue that Owen deserves to be in any pro wrestling HOF, but the WWE HOF is a joke, no independent committee, no voting, not even a location, just a Boss that picks and chooses who he can profit from and if he changes his mind he can kick them out, that's no real HOF in my opinion.
@andre Wyatt If Koko B Ware is in the HOF then Owen should be
"What better way to honour Owen?" More like what better way to let WWE profit from his death one more time.
Allowing the WWF to induct Owen would be capitulating to Vince, which is what he is used to having happen.
Why let McMahon off easy for ultimately being responsible for Owen’s death? That would be a bitter pill for her (and their kids) to swallow, after all she has done in his name to uphold his name, memory and legacy.
I love Bret Hart but side fully with Martha.
Bret Hart used to annoy me in his interviews because he's so bitter but now that I'm older I appreciate him. I love the brutal honesty. Bret Hart is a great man.
Id listen to bret complaning all day long
This really is one of the best interviews ever given Bret really is telling that hard cold truth.
Interviewer asked like 2 questions. In a 17 minute interview.
I see both sides of this one: Yes, I''d love to see Owen's legacy honored, but I also understand Martha's not wanting McMahon to profit off the memory of a man who died needlessly because he hired an inexperienced rigger using equipment never designed for the task all to save about 2 seconds of airtime!
Based on the downward spiral WWE stock is on, it's plummeting ratings, and the inside speculation that Vince might be looking to sell... will there still be a WWE by the time she passes?
Jeffery, because Sting's boss hired people who knew what they were doing and used the proper equipment for the task
@Andre Ricardo Bryant Watch the "The Dark Side of the Ring" episode on Owen's death. Both Oje and Athena share their mother's opinion that they have no interest in allowing the company they feel killed their father to EVER benefit off him. If Vince is serious about a video collection of Owen's life/career, he'd offer to donate 100% of ALL profits, (as established by an independent auditor), to the Owen Hart Foundation... but, of course, we all know he'd never go for letting a nickle go... and, as I said, the HoF is out, period!
@Andre Ricardo Bryant Hense the suggestion to donate 100% of the profits; WWE can recoup it's costs, but not a penny more... but knowing how Vince does business, (and the criminal element in a position of power his wife is working for), that's why I said the project would require an independent auditor to keep everybody "honest".
@Andre Ricardo Bryant Well, than Vince better look elsewhere because those kids aren't interested and God himself (who is probably still mad about losing to Vince and Shane at Backlash 2006) wouldn't be able to change that.
Bret is by far the best wrestler of all time! In and out of the squared circle... Always classy...
i was a kid and i gave up on wrestling after Wrestlemania X...
After the Hitman, real pro wrestling was over...
+Mark Bradley
me too
Mark Bradley LOL
Mark Bradley he is a soar loser just like stone cold Hogan etc
Same here. I watched wrestling only because of him
Mark Bradley 😂😂😂
I like Brett's honesty. Today, the "behind the scene's", is controlled, and fans that follow everything from the shows, to where are they and what's next, still question what's true. This interview and many more from Brett, leave no questions and straight honesty, like it or not, it is what it is.
I really liked what Bret had to say about Roddy Piper... very classy and honest on how Piper helped his career.
Two so stark and contrasting viewpoints on the same issue
Bret views Wrestling as something that gave him and his family everything
Martha views Wrestling that took away everything from her and her family
So viewpoints differ..but no doubt both of them love Owen Hart
Martha has NOT done anything to Erase Owen's Career, she just DOESNT want the WWE to make Any More Money off his Death, which is what this Documentary was gonna do. I like Bret, but this right here, this is just a Shitty Attitude. He wasnt married to Owen, he didnt live with Owen every day. In my Opinion I hope that Martha CONTINUES to keep this Out of WWE hands.......
Good interview! Bret is my favorite wrestler of all time!!!
I understand completely Bret Hart my father had a stroke too 2003 I know it’s very difficult to see someone u love struggling to get back to normal it’s not an easy road to travel god bless you Bret Hart one of my favourite legend wrestlers ever
Did this ever come out ? I notice this video is 4 years old. Thanks!
hahaha 6:20 "praised by who? Triple H?"
I wish Bret would talk more about his "sunny days."
Damn lol i get the joke pretty funny
can't wait to watch Dark Side of the Ring's season finale tomorrow.
Why would someone give this video a thumbs down
What I love about Bret. He’s not afraid to tell it like it is. He don’t give a fuck about the backlash or what WWE might do to him or not call him. He don’t care, he’s a good guy and he doesn’t bullshit you!! Much respect!!
Not allowing Owen's image on anything WWE related isn't erasing him. WWE is a fucking joke, and them putting him in some bogus hall of fame completely dictated by the performers relationship with Vince...what would be the purpose? would it legitimize Owen anymore than he already is? How would it benefit anybody besides the WWE?
+Springfeeeel Hall of Fames are great moments for the individuals and their families, but HoF's are mostly for the fans.
+Sub Dork Some cheesy award show completely dictated by Vince is only a celebration of publicity for WWE. If they could negotiate a deal for an Owen Hart documentary that would be great but I really don't see how people think this corny Hall of Fame has any legitimacy
+Jesot X if guys weren't in or out entirely based upon how well they currently get along with Vince...then it would have some legitimacy. But this is the WWE hall of fame...not the professional wrestling hall of fame. and talking about a wrestlers career accomplishments through the lens of somebody as biased towards his own company's performers as Vince is, I don't know why anybody would take that shit seriously.
Springfeeeel what are you yapping about?
