I love that you wore that shirt! I know it was WWE merch in 1997, because I bought it back then and have kept it in airtight storage. Yours looks to be in mint condition as well. Did you bring it out just for this?
People always say Bret is bitter but I have always just taken it as him being candid and honest. Sure he might shoot on Goldberg and others but he goes out of his way to praise guys like Taker and Austin,
I think a lot of it depends on how much (or how little) he respects the person. You can tell here that he's got a lot of respect for Taker and Austin, not just as in-ring workers but as people as well.
I agree with u about Bret. I have seen four of six episode of documentary of Vince on Netflix. I really think that Vince, even without him we would not have WWE today, and people who worked behind scenes (poor ring boys) and some wrestler at that time was doing a lots bad stuff. Bret look like he was one of few there who is a good guy in real life. In documentary Vince lying about "I wanna push Owen Hart career" that is bullshit. Vince punish Owen and gave him a silly gimmick because he wanted to hurt Bret. I can see Vince lying a lots at that time.
Yeah I see him as honest who doesn't sugarcoat things to please the masses. He thinks WCW and Goldberg stink, 90s Shawn as a good wrestler but a degenerate, HHH as a lackey and he loves wrestling.
Sadly their match at RR 96 was a bit crap, overly long and boring. Their matches after Mankind's debut were excellent though as Taker changed his style by then.
Controversial opinion here but Undertaker doing the character is the only reason why I liked any of his matches with Bret. All respect to Bret, I was bored by wrestling unless Mark was doing his Deadman antics. Not sure why Bret speaks about it with a bit of disdain. I didn’t care for wrestling at all but for The Undertajer doing that character made me Uber love it. As soon as he turned into the Biker, u stopped watching.
I feel ya. It also didn't help that Taker, up to 96-97 or so, was basically 'invincible'. As a kid I hated how he slowly 'lost' the invincibility over time. Kid me couldn't understand that it just wasn't good for business in general to have someone who flat out couldn't lose despite that being how his character started off.
@@Synthetic-Rabbit Bret who had way more experience than Steve at that point? Yeah 80-20 doesn’t sound far fetched. Bret has had way more technical matches than Austin too so it makes sense.
The shirt the interviewer is wearing? Is an antique/classic. I got that shirt in 1997 and have kept it in mint condition. Look at the skull logo. Bret hasn't used that version for a very, very long time. I'm impressed the interviewer brought it out for this.
Even including the three members added on to the Hart Foundation, Bret is the only one living. Bret Hart (July 2, 1957) Jim Neidhart (February 8, 1955-August 13, 2018) Owen Hart (May 7, 1965-May 23, 1999) Davey Boy Smith (November 27, 1962-May 18, 2002) Brian Pillman (May 22, 1962-October 5, 1997)
He's brutally honest and that's a lot to take for any wrestling fan. I had been putting off buying his autobiography, waiting for an audio version, but this video made me order it. He was my favorite as a kid and he does not mince words, I'm sure I'll love it.
The funny thing about Bret Hart is that he often says things that could be construed as narcissistic in regard to his contributions in the ring. And there may be some accuracy to that. BUT he's also good enough that he might simply just be telling the honest to goodness truth. (At least the way he sees it.)
@@Devypocalypse Exactly. He's one of those guys who says something that sounds like hubris, then you watch, and it's like "Wow, he might simply be right."
Whether you like Bret or not he was technically one of the best wrestlers in the world. A fact other wrestlers fully admit to, he's confident in his ability as he should be. There's nothing wrong with being proud and confident of your achievements.
Bret got a good match out of Diesel at Survivor Series. Not too many people can say that. Also, his match with Owen to open WM 10 will always be one of my favourite matches of his, and my favourite opening match to a WM. Maybe because of the story arc thoughout the PPV. Maybe because it was him and his brother, together.
I love one story Bret mentioned before, when they rehearsed that, he thought he wouldn't work because Owen was doing so many good looking moves, the crowd would love him. So Owen was adlibbing acting bratty during the match, otherwise Bret figured Owen was gonna turn face and he'd be a heel. He said he wishes that had happened at one point: Face Owen vs. A heel Bret.
Started watching wrestling since 1979. And it took a cage match with the 4 horse men in a steal cage match to find out that wrestlers called there moves. For me was flair asking if a wrestler was ok then the wrestler asked flair to put on the figure 4. I was like "but why"!. Have such a respect to wrestlers who put there bodies threw that to entertain us. Nothing but respect.
Bret hart is critical about every Wrestler including big names such as Hulk Hogan, Rick Flair & The Undertaker. One person he never criticised is himself. He is perfect human-being with zero imperfection right.
When you have never hurt anyone in the ring after 20 years of wrestling, won multiple championships and wrestled in the US, UK, Japan… you can criticise anyone in wrestling.
Taker literally referenced that same kick out and how much it meant to him and pushed him up on his podcast. I cant get enough of old pros like this who took as much pride in the wrestling as they did in the mic.
Always loved the matches between Undertaker and Bret Hart. They just seemed to click in the ring and it was the same whenever both guys wrestled Shawn Michaels too.
I was 6 years old at the time. Wrestling was real. There was totally a 7 foot zombie fighting a 6 foot hitman. There was absolutely a 6'6 bad guy fighting the Hitman! It was a hell of a time to be a 6 year old
Enjoyed WCW very much but I fully understand how Bret hated his run there. I wish he stayed in WWF until like Wrestlemania X8 and then worked as a coach or producer for a few years.
IDC what anyone has said about Bret, I love the guy. He's blunt, he's honest about how he feels about certain people, but he also has no issues with putting guys over in real life, not just in the ring. My favorite Bret Hart match will always be WM13 with Austin, but another amazing one would with Owen at WM10. If you have never seen them, I highly recommend giving them a watch.
Big Sexy always complains about Brett only getting paid 400k and keeping the belt. Which then holds down what the other wrestler could get. No one ever talks about how much Brett made in merch because he was CHAMP!!!!
@@donaldsalkovick396Bret had amazing technique and style and always protected his fellow wrestler in the ring. No major injuries ever in a match with Bret.
Shows how good bret was by making Austin look like a good fighter. Now Austin is my favorite wrestler but let's be honest he wasn't known for his wrestling skills, it was the character that made him the greatest
I know there's a question about his bitterness... and I do respect Bret Hart as a wrestler. But it's extremely hard for me not to believe he's bitter. There's an air of arrogance about him. No one can ever take away from his in-ring abilities, but regardless if they're true, it doesn't mean you have to mention how good you are when speaking about every match. This particular case is more tame than other's I've seen, but it's always there. He talks about the Austin fight all the time, and I don't think there was one time he didn't sound arrogant to me. I don't know. Most wrestlers have a high opinion of themselves, but I think Bret always felt like he never got the respect he deserved (which could certainly be true), so he almost feels obligated to remind everyone.
He almost answered an entire question without accusing someone of being stiff and at 6 minutes he just couldn't hold it anymore. Bret the hurt man Hart ladies and gentlemen.
you can see by bret's words, how much respect those 2 men had about eachother, 2 of the very ever greats if you ask me, maybe 2 of the 3 very best ever, along with randy savage. Curt Hennig (Mr Perfect) comes close as 4th.
I like this practice. Because I get to catch these in my timeline at random, never seen these snippets, so it is a good way to see fresh content at least in my situation.
Bret isn’t obsessively bitter but every time some random stranger brings it up online people act like it’s Bret himself standing on their front lawn with a megaphone shouting about Bill Goldberg and Montreal.
Bret Hart vs British Bulldog was the best match in WWE in that time...Randy Savage vs Ricky Steamboat was before the best in the first WWF years..when we talk about wrestling in ring skills storyline...
And TrueGordie is telling this man to "grow up" after watching the Mr.Mcmahon documentary... People need to have more respect for what this man did for the business as a whole. Bret is the best there is,the best there was and the best there ever will be.
Yeah, Bret comes off narcissistic, but he's really not. Listen to how other wrestlers talk about the matches, and he truly is the beststory teller in a match. The match itself is a story and the simple things he does like when Taker sat up his head dropped in frustraition thats perfect in telling the story of the match and Brett was the best at it
I would honestly put the HBK/Taker Hell In A Cell (HIAC) above this match as well. jut below their WM streak matches; which if as I recall was the 1st Place Runner-Up for match of the year in 1997, losing to the Bet v Austin WM 13 match
Wish Hart wouldn’t have spoken about the Deadmab gimmick with such disdain. I think he comes across a little egotistical in this interview. The only reason I even liked wrestling was because of the Deadman gimmick
I never believed the Davy Boy match story. If i went out drinking, just drinking(beer and maybe a couple of shots) from 10pm to 3am. Then slept from 4am to 11am, i would STILL be shot the whole next day. My eyes, facial features would be distorted, my movements would be limited the whole day and night, its called a hangover. Davy Boy looked fine. Eyes, face and movements. He was supposedly on a three day crack binge with no sleep? Bret called the match yeah, but I'm convinced it wasn't under those circumstances.
When you watch the promo Davey did before the match....it was awkward you can tell he's "off". (Not that Davey was ever great on the mic) was it a 3 day binge? maybe not, But it is known Davey had his problems so it wouldn't surprise me if he was a little "fooked" as he would say.
@@marcpower4167 According to Bret Hart himself. Davy Boy and Neidhart, 3 day pipe session, no sleep leading to Wembley. I dont buy it either. He looked fine in that match. I dont remember his promo and cant find it. I did see an unrelated promo on the Repo man, talk about weird.
If you pay close attention. His "praise" isn't. "70/30, well Shawn maybe contributed 20 or 25... That isn't a jab at Shawn". "80/20 for Austin" - After mentioning him bringing a "stump puller" Then the "50/50" thing about Undertaker. First off: he's talking about "contribution" to making the matches great. Brett Hart and Shawn Michaels have a long history. And a bitter rivalry. The Montreal Screw job being top of the list. Austin, not so much rivalry there. But just on those two alone. He's speaking a "tongue in cheek" message of "I contributed way more to those matches then those guys". Even with the "champ controls the matches" bit. And with the "50/50" on Undertaker. He's talking about one of the most fan loved wrestlers in the history of wrestling entertainment. For him to even try to pose himself as greater than Taker. First off: isn't likely to be believable. Second: Undertaker would simply shred up everything Hart could say in a different interview. One issue Hart has is that even as far back as during the old WWF days. Hart was a bit of a fan favorite wrestler, who had been a second stringer to more popular, and fan pulling wrestlers like Ultimate Warrior, Undertaker, etc. He was retconned to wrestling other second stringers like Benoit, Jake the Snake, etc. And I think it pissed him off to no end. Which lead up to him leaving for WCW. But, his speech is underpinned with the subtle message of "I'm better than them"... If you also pay attention to when he starts talking about Undertaker. He looks like he's pausing to be careful with his words. And doesn't loosen up until he talks about how great of friends they were. Basically, Brett Hart is bitter. And he's trying to build his fan appreciation back up. Pinky just needs to give it already.
Bret is cocky, but he’s honest. All the things I hear him say that come off soooo cocky and like his ego is inflated…none of it is dishonest. He was one of the best workers ever and anyone who says different is lying. He could also shoot, cuz he was a hart 😂
That wasn't a shoot on Taker in fact he was praising him but at the same time he sounds pretty full of himself like Shawn and Austin just contributed 20-30% in matches, not buying that!
Poor Bret had to watch guys from his era wrestle in their late 50's and he didn't get to wrestle to late 40's. If wcw sent him to the doctor right after the kick, he probably could've
If he never faced Goldberg at all he'd have wrestled more probably longer than 2005 and compete in tna for a few years then retire going into the 2010 hall of fame
As a Mexican-American, I am curious what a "Mexican Wave of applause" is. I'd like to clarify that I'm not offended by this statement, but I don't think I can identify the particular aspects of applause that make it Mexican. I'm open to trying to understand this sentiment. Anyone care to explain?
@@SRC267 I'm a white American, and I've only heard it called "The Wave." Is there a difference between a "Mexican Wave" and the one people most commonly done in the US? Genuinely curious about that.
@@eyellgeteven9928Not sure about differences as i only heard of the former. All i know is it started in the 1986 World Cup finals in Mexico City. Possibly it based on the same origins, just not socially called that in the US.
Who has the best overall character gimmick in wrestling?
Let us know who YOU think!
I love that you wore that shirt! I know it was WWE merch in 1997, because I bought it back then and have kept it in airtight storage. Yours looks to be in mint condition as well. Did you bring it out just for this?
Undertaker has the greatest gimmick

Taker and bret had some classic match's
*matches

Bret Hart forever, watched him as a young girl,51 and still love it❤
Man, it's so cool hearing Bret having such high praise of Taker and Austin. Those 3 are my top 3 GOATs right there.
That Summerslam match in 1997 was HUGE. Everything went perfect and so many successive events occured due to that match.
i believe thats the night the tide turned
Taker and Bret were my 1 and 2 growing up. I hated when they were against each other bc I didn't want either to lose.
I feel ya. It also didn't help that Taker, up to 96-97 or so, was basically 'invincible'. As a kid I hated how he slowly 'lost' the invincibility over time. Kid me couldn't understand that it just wasn't good for business in general to have someone who flat out couldn't lose despite that being how his character started off.
Owen VS Bret at WMX. Best one, and the one that got me HOOOOOOKED.
The .gif of Bret hard-selling Taker's pure strikes is one of the best in wrestling.
Brett is just honest when it comes to wrestling and some can't handle the truth
80/20 with Austin, though?
@@Synthetic-Rabbit Bret who had way more experience than Steve at that point? Yeah 80-20 doesn’t sound far fetched. Bret has had way more technical matches than Austin too so it makes sense.

Bret’s matches were epic,

My two favorite wrestlers Brett and undertaker
Post the date recorded on future videos please.
Bret vs Razor KOTR 93 was a very good match. I believe Corny reacted to that one. I wish I was old enough to watch those live.
I was 6 years old at the time. Wrestling was real. There was totally a 7 foot zombie fighting a 6 foot hitman. There was absolutely a 6'6 bad guy fighting the Hitman! It was a hell of a time to be a 6 year old
MY favorite poster ever, which I have up in my house, is the SS '97 Hart&Soul. Bret with his arms crossed and Taker in the backround.
Enjoyed WCW very much but I fully understand how Bret hated his run there. I wish he stayed in WWF until like Wrestlemania X8 and then worked as a coach or producer for a few years.
Then maybe we could have had that dream match we were denied: Bret vs. Kurt Angle.
Bret and Shawn had great chemistry too because they both were perfectionist in the ring and great artists in the ring.
The best there is, the best there was, the best there ever will be. That's Bret "The Hitman" Hart.
"How did it feel to be in the ring with Undertaker"
"Let me tell you something about Bill Goldberg"
Bret drinking a Guinness!!!! NICE
91-96 were the best of Undertaker & Bret during the glory years of professional wrestling.
My favorite Bret match was against Mr Perfect at Summerslam 91’

Damn right
Unfortunately for God the champion dictate the pace and God was chasing 😂

Why does everyone on here call him Brett? Fact check his name it's fucking BRET

Nice you make me feel like watch it now
Bret had said once in an interview that he and HBK split the work on the Ironman match, so it’s odd hearing his take on it now.

First video ever without any mention of Goldberg.
You just mentioned it… it’s ok, you’re not to blame tho, we all know who is 😂
Might as well wrestler an actual gorilla. Bret is funny with his Goldberg digs sometimes.

@brucedaboss6316 that's fair I'm not a massive fan of hell in a cell in General so that's just me
Super disrespectful of the audience to go crazy every time Bret takes a drink. Can wrestling fans just act normal for 30 minutes?
Maybe they're just Irish?
Super disrespectful of you to cry about people having a good time. Can youtube commenters just act like they're not on their period for 6 minutes?
😂 agreed , why is there a dying need to feel offended on behalf of someone else? Exhausting personalities i tell you@@giannipuface9441
Even the Ultimate Warrior likes Bret Hart.. surprisingly Warrior looks like he never like anyone
I thought Hit Man vs taker was great .
Wish Hart wouldn’t have spoken about the Deadmab gimmick with such disdain. I think he comes across a little egotistical in this interview. The only reason I even liked wrestling was because of the Deadman gimmick
Listen to how Taker etc talk about Bret
Bret is still conceded about his wrestling skills. I mean he had mad skills but all that 80-20 me stuff paints him in a bad light...again.
Not if you actually listen to what he's saying. Had nothing to do with wrestling skills. He's talking about coming up with the ideas for the match

Davy Boy looked fine. Eyes, face and movements. He was supposedly on a three day crack binge with no sleep? Bret called the match yeah, but I'm convinced it wasn't under those circumstances.
When you watch the promo Davey did before the match....it was awkward you can tell he's "off". (Not that Davey was ever great on the mic) was it a 3 day binge? maybe not, But it is known Davey had his problems so it wouldn't surprise me if he was a little "fooked" as he would say.
@@marcpower4167 According to Bret Hart himself. Davy Boy and Neidhart, 3 day pipe session, no sleep leading to Wembley. I dont buy it either. He looked fine in that match. I dont remember his promo and cant find it. I did see an unrelated promo on the Repo man, talk about weird.
Best Bret Match is 13 with Steve Williams
If you pay close attention. His "praise" isn't.
"70/30, well Shawn maybe contributed 20 or 25... That isn't a jab at Shawn".
"80/20 for Austin" - After mentioning him bringing a "stump puller"
Then the "50/50" thing about Undertaker.
First off: he's talking about "contribution" to making the matches great.
Brett Hart and Shawn Michaels have a long history. And a bitter rivalry. The Montreal Screw job being top of the list.
Austin, not so much rivalry there.
But just on those two alone. He's speaking a "tongue in cheek" message of "I contributed way more to those matches then those guys".
Even with the "champ controls the matches" bit.
And with the "50/50" on Undertaker.
He's talking about one of the most fan loved wrestlers in the history of wrestling entertainment.
For him to even try to pose himself as greater than Taker.
First off: isn't likely to be believable.
Second: Undertaker would simply shred up everything Hart could say in a different interview.
One issue Hart has is that even as far back as during the old WWF days. Hart was a bit of a fan favorite wrestler, who had been a second stringer to more popular, and fan pulling wrestlers like Ultimate Warrior, Undertaker, etc.
He was retconned to wrestling other second stringers like Benoit, Jake the Snake, etc.
And I think it pissed him off to no end. Which lead up to him leaving for WCW.
But, his speech is underpinned with the subtle message of "I'm better than them"...
If you also pay attention to when he starts talking about Undertaker. He looks like he's pausing to be careful with his words. And doesn't loosen up until he talks about how great of friends they were.
Basically, Brett Hart is bitter. And he's trying to build his fan appreciation back up.
Pinky just needs to give it already.
😂 yup..Bret the shitman start at it again
@@Cherubim666999 yep basically
Bret* 🤦🏻♂️
@@StarwarsfanArmy issues?
Bret is cocky, but he’s honest. All the things I hear him say that come off soooo cocky and like his ego is inflated…none of it is dishonest. He was one of the best workers ever and anyone who says different is lying. He could also shoot, cuz he was a hart 😂
That wasn't a shoot on Taker in fact he was praising him but at the same time he sounds pretty full of himself like Shawn and Austin just contributed 20-30% in matches, not buying that!
That’s not what he was saying at all
Poor Bret had to watch guys from his era wrestle in their late 50's and he didn't get to wrestle to late 40's. If wcw sent him to the doctor right after the kick, he probably could've
If he never faced Goldberg at all he'd have wrestled more probably longer than 2005 and compete in tna for a few years then retire going into the 2010 hall of fame
How do you kickout of the sharpshooter? You don't kick out of a submission...
If you watch it, it's a kickout. Not in the pinfall sense, but in the manner in which he broke the submission.
@@Costas22 I see.
Brett Hart is a legend in his own mind!
He's a legend in a LOT of people's minds.
Bret Hart vs Ric Flair
He couldn't say shit against taker even if there was a reason to. Taker would make that last concussion look like nothing
I get depressed listening to this legend lately. He's still bitter about so much, and it sucks to see one of the best like this.
He's just honest. I like that......
I always thought Undertaker kicking out of the sharpshooter was bullshit!
Undertaker talks about keeping finishers protected, but kicks out of Hart's?
As a Mexican-American, I am curious what a "Mexican Wave of applause" is. I'd like to clarify that I'm not offended by this statement, but I don't think I can identify the particular aspects of applause that make it Mexican. I'm open to trying to understand this sentiment. Anyone care to explain?
The Mexican wave is done in football matches. Crowds simulate a wave, this crowd didn't do it, but the host just mentioned it sounding like one.
@@SRC267 I'm a white American, and I've only heard it called "The Wave." Is there a difference between a "Mexican Wave" and the one people most commonly done in the US? Genuinely curious about that.
@@eyellgeteven9928Not sure about differences as i only heard of the former. All i know is it started in the 1986 World Cup finals in Mexico City. Possibly it based on the same origins, just not socially called that in the US.
@@SRC267 I didn't know that, thanks for the info.
What? No love for El Dandy?
