Hulk Hogan had a controversial career in pro wrestling, and so did Bret Hart. The way Hulk Hogan sees things, Hart was responsible for his own downfall.
Bret Hart claims that he was supposed to lose the WWE Championship to him in 1993. Now, Hulk Hogan has offered his perspective on the matter.
In 1993, Hulk Hogan emerged victorious against Yokozuna at WrestleMania 9, capturing the WWE Championship in the process. According to Hart, Hogan had initially agreed to drop the title to him following the event, but he ultimately had a change of heart. Yokozuna went on to reclaim the championship from Hogan at King of the Ring 1993, and then Hart defeated Yokozuna to win the title at WrestleMania 10.
During an appearance on the Full Send Podcast, Hulk Hogan mentioned Randy Savage and Scott Steiner as individuals he had a strained relationship with in the wrestling industry. The two-time WWE Hall of Famer also alluded to his past conflicts with Bret Hart.
“The only other person was Bret Hart, who thought I basically sabotaged his career because Bret thought he should have been the greatest wrestler that ever lived, and he said it was my fault.”
Bret Hart still has a big bone to pick with Goldberg over that career-ending concussion many years ago. We’ll have to see if Bret Hart has anything to say in retaliation to Hulk Hogan’s comments, because this could certainly get under the Hitman’s skin.
