Nearly two decades ago, WWE Hall of Famer Bret Hart’s pro wrestling career ended just three weeks after Bill Goldberg dropped him with a stiff kick to the head, causing the Canadian legend to suffer a severe concussion. Since then, “The Hitman” has often been very critical of wrestlers whom he feels are reckless in the ring. Based on his recent comments, it appears he still has some ill feelings toward Goldberg — himself a WWE Hall of Famer — for concussing him during their time in World Championship Wrestling (WCW) and allegedly injuring a number of other wrestlers in the past.
As quoted by Fightful on Monday, Hart recently appeared on former WWE announcer Sean Mooney’s podcast, where he blamed Goldberg for prematurely ending his career and suggested that the NFL-player-turned-wrestler doesn’t deserve to be in the Hall of Fame because of his perceived reputation as an unsafe worker.
