Bret Hart did a Q & A on his twitter (@HitmanBretSHart), here are some

highlights:

Influence for him in wrestling: Probably Dory and Terry Funk or my

older brothers

Current wrestler that has the most promising ability: Daniel Bryan

Current status with WWE: We re on excellent terms but no plans for

anything right now.

Still holding a grudge with Bill Goldberg?: Never had one. I have

great respect for Goldberg. What happened to me was an accident.

Favorite angle he was involved in: Canada vs USA angle with the Hart

Foundation

Is Melina still his favorite female wrestler?: Her, Nattie Neidhart,

Beth Phoenix, and Gail Kim are the best female wrestlers today

Thoughts on Randy Savage: Of all the wrestlers I know, I probably

miss Randy Savage the most. He s a hero of mine.

Does he feel Hulk Hogan avoided a match with him?: I know he did

Would he induct Shawn Michaels in the WWE HOF?: I would like to

induct Shawn but Triple H makes more sense.

Which of the Hart Brothers, who were never in WWE, could have been

successful in WWE : Smith

Best all around in ring performer in WWE: Right now Orton, Sheamus,

McIntyre, and Mysterio. Super dedicated.

Most rewarding aspect of his return last year: Reuniting the Hart

Family in a concerted effort with a joyous ending.

Thoughts on MVP: Great wrestler and a great guy and I look forward to

his return someday.

His favorite period as Champion: 1997?

His closest friend in wrestling: Roddy Piper

His match with Diesel at Survivor Series 95: It s always been one of

my personal favorites. Pretty solid match. And the table wasn t

gimmicked.

Do any of his brothers still train wrestlers?: My brother Bruce

pretends to, but it s more a school where you learn everything not to

do. My brother Smith has a school in Barrie, Ontario

Thoughts on the Miz: I like him. Always liked him. Just wish he d

give me a title shot.

Does he regret his time in WCW?: I wish I never left WWE, if that s

what you mean

Thoughts on Tyson Kidd: He had a strong year but it looks like he s

going to have to work his way back around.

Thoughts on John Cena: One of the hardest working guys in the history

of the WWE.

Last time he spoke to Owen s kids: It s been so long, I can t

remember. Maybe six months after he died.

Thoughts on CM Punk: I think he s uniquely gifted. By the time his

career is over, he ll be recognized for his greatness.

Best Canadian wrestler: I still count Benoit. But Edge is killer. no

pun intended obviously

Does he watch TNA? How he would improve their product?: I don t watch

TNA. I d have Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff tar and feathered.

Any regrets?: I wish I reached out a little harder to Bulldog, Crush,

and Test.

Least favorite move to take: A Powerbomb

Thoughts on ROH: Nothing but respect. Some of the hardest workers in

the business.

Who created The Sharpshooter?: Sure as hell not my brother Bruce.

Thoughts on Wade Barrett: I thought he was the hottest heel in the

business. As a fan, I hope they didn t drop the ball.

Thoughts on David Hart Smith: I m patiently waiting for him to find

his greatness. HIs time will come. Mark my words.

Favorite match: vs. Austin @ Wrestlemania.

Least favorite: vs. Backlund @ Wrestlemania (not my opponent, the

match itself).

Favorite opponents: Perfect, Owen, Austin, and the Bulldogs.

Toughest opponents: Vader and Goldberg.

Least favorite opponent: Bad News Brown. He never understood how to

make anyone. Zero psychology.

Who he d wrestle today: I d like 20 minutes with Orton, Cena, Sheamus

anytime.

Favorite PPV he was part of: The In Your House Calgary Stampede pay

per view in 1997?

Thoughts on Alberto Del Rio: A unique, classic Mexican heel that s

easy to hate. Which means he s doing his job.

Will we see Owen in the HOF?: I sure hope so.

Thoughts on the Iron Man Match with Shawn Michaels: I was concerned

with the difficulty but I never had any doubts about my ability.

Thoughts on Michael Cole: Michael Cole does a piss poor job of

putting over a lot of the talent. He couldn t lace Jim Ross shoes

up.

His relationship with Shawn Michaels: Shawn and I are on good terms

and we stay in touch.

Still holds a grudge with Ric Flair?: No, I just feel sorry for him.

It s too sad to see a guy work so hard and have nothing left.

Thoughts on his match with Vince McMahon last year: It s far from my

greatest match but it was beautiful all things considered.

Thoughts on The Undertaker: Undertaker is one of the most consummate

professionals inside and outside the ring.

If he could, who would he reform the Hart Foundation with: Christian,

Edge, Jericho, Trish, and the hart dynasty

Working as a heel against Jerry Lawler in USWA: Working with Lawler

was fun and easy.

Thoughts on Tiger Mask: Tiger Mask was ahead of his time. Next to Rey

Mysterio, he was the best lightweight

His relationship with Triple H: I m on decent terms with HHH, too.

Favorite match he was not involved in: Lesnar vs. Angle at

WrestleMania

The best Japanese wrestler: Tatsumi Fujinami

Would he open a wrestling school?: I think about it. Maybe one of

these days.

That bit in bold is for you Marsh

The more I read from Hart the more I think the whole Screwjob thing was a work.

Never used to believe it but I do now.

Nash think it was a work to, therefore it was a work, that's my view on it anyway.:P

Anybody else watch Last Call with Scott Hall? The best thing in wrestling today. For those of you who don't know it's basically Scott Hall's youtube channel. Scott's a funny guy as it is and most videos consist of him and Larry Zybszko reviewing matches.

A notable one to start of with is the Hogan vs Warrior match at WM. Larry had never seen the match before and he laughs his way through the whole match. Credit to Hogan on that match because they do show you just how much Hogan carries Warrior in the match.

You see there has been a bit of a war of words with Hogan and Hart over twitter? Hart made some very tasteless comments about that car crash Nick was in and the guy that has brain damage now.

Yeah, I seen that. Not got much to say about it to be honest, other than the two of them should grow up.

Oh,

So much for the fake Impact spoilers. :lol:

I did say that I didn't realise that both last night and last week's impact were taped in North Carolina. I was under the impression that last night's was gonna be a proper live event, lies I was told.

It wasn't a pretty shit show tbh. I missed the first 15 minutes but I don't think I missed much. I can't even be arsed doing a review.

I'll do one for you;

Bischoff talks shit for ages

Jarrett and Karen segment

Flair talks shit but is unintentionally amusing when doing so. He talks for a long time

Jarrett and Karen segment

A womans match

Jarrett and Karen segment

Bubba/Bully talks shit about D-Von

Jarrett and Karen segment

A tag match featuring Guuner and Murphy

Jarrett and Karen segment

Some match that will feature some or a mix of the following (Morgan, Jeff Hardy, Matt Hardy, RVD, Anderson)

Jarrett and Karen segment

Kurt cries

Lots of ref bumps. Some swerves

I've taken your suggestion and struck out what didn't happen.

Can't remember how many Jarrett spots there was but there was a few. The women's match(Sarita vs Velvet Sky) last about a minute, Velvet won but it made that feud pointless.

Morgan beat Hernandez via DQ.

Sting beat Hardy for the title.

Aye, I watched the ones he's done before, will have to catch up if he's put some new ones up. Good to see him doing summit at least. The one's with him and Nash are great, he should do more.

Can't see anyone getting sufficient rights to release one. Might be a few bootlegs on the go. Where, f**k knows.

Did anyone notice that after Jonny Curtis NXT win last night Josh Matthews referenced how he had dreamed of this moment since being in an orphanage. In Curtis victory speech he then dedicated the win to his father sitting at home who worked 16 hour days to support him. Hmm...

f**k it, I'll finish making my own. I don't know why I didn't think about them needing the rights.

He could've been in an orphanage until he was like 10 then got adopted, probably considers his adopted father his real father.

Why is Booker T so hilarious? Seriously.

Get rid of Josh Matthews and just have Booker and Cole commentating Smackdown.

Every reasonably impacted move is a "big (insert move)" according to him. Seriously look out for it, annoys the hell outta me.

I didn't think SD was too bad, just a solid show. Missed the first 25-30 minutes though, might try and catch it online.

Looks like Riley's gonna be the special guest referee. Christian looks increasingly more likely to be involved in the WHC match.

Aye but he thinks Edge is the best Canadian wrestler ever and that Randy Orton is the best in-ring wrestler in the WWE today.

Bret Hart obviously knows more about wrestling than I do, but how anyone can rate Edge higher than Jericho I have no idea.

He might know more about HOW to wrestle, but some of his opinions on wrestling border on hilarious. It's like saying Pele knows about football.
