Former WWE Developmental Manager Takes Credit For The Montreal Screwjob
In the video above, former OVW manager Kenny "Starmaker" Bolin talks with Bill Apter of 1wrestling.com. Bolin managed many stars during their WWE developmental days including John Cena, Carlito, Eugene, Mark Henry, The Miz and others. Bolin is coming out with another edition of his book this October and will be telling the story of how he says he came up with the infamous Montreal Screwjob with Vince McMahon, Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels at WWE Survivor Series 1997. Bolin said:
"I'm the one that came up with the program to screw Bret Hart," Bolin said. "I gave Jim Cornette that info. I fed it to him for weeks and Vince McMahon never accepted my idea until the last minute. I never got an ounce of credit for it, Cornette didn't want any credit for it because he was scared to death of Bret Hart, he was scared to death of Shawn Michaels, Triple H and everybody involved. Cornette was basically the relay man for me. It was my idea and I'm going to put it all, the entire story, in a new version of my book already coming out in October – 'I Probably Screwed You and Bret Hart Too.'"
Bolin says the book cover will be pink for breast cancer awareness month and that 100% of proceed will go to The Bolin Foundation to help with cancer research.
