Being at the top changed wrestlers personally back then.. Shawn's a great example.. later in his career he said he didn't even want to be champion because of the politics and he just wanted to put on good matches and his humility really showed in the ladder half of his career in that regard. He became the absolute best. Him and Bret were always my favourites. Them and the undertaker.

Bret "The Hitman" Hart had a passion for the wrestling business. Actually, he cared about the way he performed rather than getting big money. That's why Kevin Nash called Bret Hart, "The $400,000. dollar champion."

Bret Hart is a decent person. He hates lying and deceiving people. Guys like Hogan, Flair and Vince that is a businessman and does what's right in his mind about business and not worry about the consequences. The Hart family was always the best and Bret was screwed by Vince and Shawn as they have all agreed to it. I am happy that Bret has buried the hatchet and does other stuff in wrestling. Whats done is done and we all know who the bad party was. At the end of the day we all end up in one hole, rich and poor life cannot be bought and money doesn't matter in the end. All we have is our beliefs and the way we lived our lives to be a good person or not. Others will judge that. Bret Hart is the best.

What bothers me the most is why people think being a businessman somehow shields you from having to be judged on ethics and such. Hell, I think most politicians should be put on trial for genocide upon their people. The fact that trough poverty you've destroyed a family (think broken homes... or even murder/suicide, thus directly, human lives). Yes, under the umbrella of it being "too hard to prove", people don't even bother conjuring the thought of people like this Vince share blame, let alone call for justice. And so on, the corporate world goes on, controlling, unabated, more and aspects and liberties of the everyday guy's life, without him even bothering to notice it.

If you actually watch the video. You can see that Bret is being bitter here - and that Hogan has never done anything wrong to Bret personally. Bret inadvertently admits it - if you watch the clip carefully. Hogan may of used and abused his creative control alot. But as far as his dealings with Bret go - Hulk Hogan has done nothing wrong. Bret even admits he trashed him unfairly and that maybe he was wrong. Bret is at fault on this one

zsivaz I actually think that too. They may had differences but I do not think Hogan did anything as bad as Vince or the others did. At the end of the day is a survival of the strongest business and Hogan was well known and everybody knew that Hogan is always a winner when it comes to publicity stuff. What I like about Bret is the honesty and he just tells you how he saw it without holding back unlike most others. I was a big fan of NWO and the main reason for that is because Hogan, Nash and Scott Hall made it exiting. I prefered NWO Hogan to the red and yellow take your vitamins crap.

No, the problem was losing to Shawn. Bret had told Shawn that he was happy for him, and that he would be glad to put Shawn over any time. Shawn looked at Bret and said I appreciate that, but I want you to know I won't do the same for you. That made Bret mad, and felt disrespected by Shawn. He told Vince, I won't put Shawn over until he puts me over first. Bret was more than willing to lose the title to Austin or anyone else but Shawn. He even offered to turn the belt over the next night in Ottawa. Everyone paints Bret as the "guy who refused to do business".... but that is NOT true. He wasn't going to just let Shawn walk all over him like that, and I don't blame him. Vince even agreed Bret didn't have to lose at SS..... it would end in a DQ..... it was Vince who lied and went back on his word.

Correction. The 90s boom was due to the Monday Night War. That was because of Hogan. He made WWF big in the 80s then WCW in the 90s allowing for them to go head to head. Austin's popularity came DURING the Monday Night War thus he simply road a wave of popularity. Austin was VERY luck to be chosen as the man to beat up Vince every week because seeing Vince get beat up is what the fans liked. Vince was the key not Austin who was easily replaced in the angle by Rock then HHH.

My first reaction was that it was a shitty thing to do to Bret, but my second reaction -- my most gut reaction -- was he should've done what he was told in the first place because Vince McMahon created Bret Hart, gave him the belt, and let him run with it. When your time is up, it doesn't matter if you're in your hometown or if you're in Bangkok. "

There's a strong strong possibility that Vince lied to Bret about getting the title from Hulk. I bet Vince wanted Bret to think that he would be champ again soon, but people in creative business positions change their mind. I think Vince finally realised that Hogan couldnt work the date of SummerSlam (and that had nothing to do with Bret.)

The fact that Vince tried Bret and then took him out of the title scene until everyone else had left gives a pretty clear picture. Bret even admitted in his DVD that his first World title reign didn't go as well as he'd hoped. And everyone went to WCW for the same reason they went to the WWF: MORE MONEY. Oh, and the "next generation" angle (a major bomb) was a desperate attempt to explain why everyone was leaving.

Unless there was some obscure tournament on TV or overseas, of which I'm not aware. I'm referring to the PPV.

I'll give you a reasonable answer, Yes, it was good business for Flair to show up with the WCW Championship on WWF TV. It was Flair's belt. When someone was voted to be WCW champion when WCW was apart of the NWA, they were required to put down a $25,000 deposit, payable when they lost the championship. When Flair lost the belt to Vader, WCW REFUSED to give back Flair's deposit.

You're right, reasonable creative control is to protect his character from becoming a I don't know a pirate or jobbing all the time but doing business on your way out is very reasonable and would never hurt his character. Infact it would have shown Shawn & the rest of the boys this is how you do things even if a fellow wrestler won't act proffesionaly I will.

He was the highest paid wrestler in the WWF & WCW all because of the Monday Wars & NOT his drawing power, infact as soon as he left the WWF they made a turn for the better & later on took them over. Bret helped WCW as much as Russo did.

Part of the problem with WCW, is that they had too many stars. They were taking in everyone from WWE despite having so many natural stars. Bret hard made his name in WWE but WWE had a vendetta against Bret and wanted to make sure the fans turned against him beyond the storyline. Hogan usually has creative control so it isn't surprising that Hogan said no to dropping the title to him.

Austin never drew more money than Hulk Hogan. They can claim that only if you do not adjust for inflation. They say that the Austin 3:16 shirt sold the most in WWE. But shirts over all (Hogan always had no less than 4 shirts at a time) Hogan sold more. Plus the nWo shirt is the TRUE highest selling wrestling shirt of all time. Hogan is the man that took WWE from gymnasiums and hotel ballrooms to 93,000 + seat arenas. Austin road the wave of popularity of the Monday Night War.

It's called the Montreal Screwjob. Basically, Bret had decided to go to WCW so Vince booked him to drop the belt to Shawn Michaels before Bret left. Bret refused to do so, so Vince organized the Screwjob which saw Shawn Michaels put a submission hold on Bret, followed by Earl Hebner calling for the bell without Bret ever tapping. Earl, Vince, and Shawn were all in on it.

There is a big difference, Michaels never CLAIMED to everyone that he was "LOYAL" like Bret did. When push came to shove Bret took the WCW deal even though he had a contract with the WWF that even if Vince didn't want him, he HAD TO PAY HIM it was a written contract. Bottomline, Bret saw the writing on the wall, he would NO LONGER be the top star because the WWF was going in another direction that was a big blow to his HUGE ego so he took the big payoff in WCW.

Never once did I say he did everyting he was told. You need to read in context what I said is when he was told to JOB he would do it, like we stated before if you ask Vince if Shawn ever refused to job when Vince told him you would get a resounding NO.

There was many reasons Bret didn't want to give the belt back. Bret even said a main reason was because he knew Shawn wouldn't do the same for him. There was the respect issue, the politics he played back stage and the fact that he only cared about himself and wasn't willing to do the same for others. Heck Undertaker basically threatened Micheals to drop the belt to Austin at WM14, and Micheals couldn't wrestle after that match anyways.

Yea but you fail to point out that the boss, Vince, is the one that allows a title to vacate and there is where all you're arguments fall apart. You fail to see that the boss is Vince not Bret and he decides what happens to HIS belts whether somebody is faking an injury or not.

Bret never had a problem winning or losing, except taking a powerbomb from Kevin Nash, and except losing to Shawn Michaels.

Because, first it's Vince's call, nobody elses, second and most important those two situations happened when Vince was not on the ropes in a war with Turner & WCW who was hell bent in putting him out of business.

The WWE is a company, Vince is the owner right, what do you do in the company you work, you do what your boss tell you to do if you don't want to do it then the boss will take matters, as simple as that.

I was just summarzing what Bret said. He said in both his book and his dvd, he trained particularly hard and purposely tried to tire out Michaels to make himself look better. Considering Shawn was being put over, that was pretty unprofessional to attempt to make himself look better.

You're arguments are weak. If my boss tells me to kill cheat or steal of course I wouldn't do it but if he tells me to do something that is in the realm of my job discription of course I would do it if not I would suffer the consequences. Jobbing on you're way out is part of wrestling, something he refused to do, therefor forced Vince to take action. Vince has never denied he took the belt back by force, so I don't know why you would bring the OTR thing. One question did you buy the Bret DVD?

Actually he did, he admits it even before he wrote his book. It was well known after the fact that Bischoff & Bret had had SECRET meetings in 1996, not to mention in 1990 when he seeked a contract with WCW but didn't know his own WWF contract so he couldn't go anywhere. He went back to Vince after he had a verbal offer from Bischoff & played Vince to get him that ridiculous contract of 20 yrs. Making him the highest paid wrestler in the WWF but it was all started & schemed behind Vince's back.

dropping the title to one of them wasnt what the boss wanted. you cant just go moving belts around like musical chairs or they dont mean anything. no, i wouldnt want to job to someone who wouldnt return the favor. but its not my job. if i was getting paid to do it, i'd do what they guy who cuts the check says.

Wrong. Bret had another month or so left. Hence he didn't appear on NITRO until a month later.

Bret didn't go to WCW, WCW came to him. He was free to do what he wanted. If he hadn't given Vince a chance to counter then he'd have been wrong, but h was compeatly open about it. If you think Hart made more then Hogan you are crazy! WCW wanted him mainly because he was a draw out side of the United states. And it was WCW that dropped tha ball when they got him. Montreal was the biggest story in wrestling at the time, it's not Hart's fault they didn't use it.
