Bret Hart On WWE Inducting Owen Hart Next Year, Why He's Upset With Owen's Widow Martha, More
As noted, WWE Hall of Famer Bret Hart did a Q&A with Off The Record's Periscope account this week. Regarding his brother Owen Hart going into the WWE Hall of Fame, Bret said Owen should be in the Hall and he's hoping the induction happens during WrestleMania 32 weekend in Dallas next year. Bret said the induction is way overdue and he will be sorely disappointed if it doesn't happen.
Bret also said he's looking forward to WWE's upcoming "Owen Hart: Hart of Gold" DVD set but said he has reservations because it feels like it was too controlled with WWE "tip-toeing" around so they didn't offend Owen's widow Martha. Bret said Martha has made an ass of herself and pissed him off. He believes Martha has done more to erase Owen's legacy and career, and doesn't want today's fans to enjoy Owen. He said Martha is "very anal" about not getting over what happened to Owen.
Bret later said if Owen isn't inducted next year, he won't attend another Hall of Fame ceremony until he and Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart are inducted as a tag team, The Hart Foundation. He also added that he hopes WWE inducts the whole Hart Foundation next year in Dallas – himself, Owen, Anvil, Brian Pillman and British Bulldog.
