Bret Hart Says WWE Invited Him To SummerSlam, Then Told Him They Don’t Have Any Seats; Doesn’t Feel Appreciated By WWE
Bret Hart is widely considered to be one of the greatest wrestlers ever, praised by fans and peers for his in-ring skills.
Despite his historical career in WWE, which includes main eventing WrestleMania and multiple world championships, Bret doesn’t feel appreciated by WWE due to a recent incident at SummerSlam.
“I went to SummerSlam. They invited me down this year and told me that they wanted me to be in the crowd. Then they told me once I got there that they didn’t have any seats. I noticed Kevin Nash got a seat. I don’t feel like WWE, maybe I finally realized that they I don’t think they ever really fully appreciated me, even after Hulk’s passing. There is no certain appreciation for anything I did. Someone told me there are only three wrestlers alive who main evented one of the first ten WrestleManias. Sgt. Slaughter is one and Million Dollar Man [Ted Dibiase] is the other one. I don’t plan on going anywhere for at least another 30 years,” stated Bret at Vaughn Comic Con.
WWE did name Bret Hart vs. ‘The British Bulldog’ Davey Boy Smith from SummerSlam 1992 as the best SummerSlam match of all time.
While making the media rounds, Bret commented on the current state of pro wrestling. You can find his full comments here.
