Bret Hart spoke with Forbes for a nbew interview. Some highlights are below:
On the amount of non-wrestling segments on WWE TV: “If you watch wrestling like I do, you watch for the wrestling. There’s so much talking. There’s some ‘twit’ back there with a pencil behind his ear writing down all these things for wrestlers to say…It all starts to sound the same…I switch channels as soon as I hear someone going into a big monologue.”
On the writers coming up with the Stardust gimmick: “They are wrestling fans but they don’t understand wrestling. The only way they can understand wrestling is to be a wrestler and that’s not going to happen.”
On promos falling flat: “Somebody writes down a bunch of lousy things for you to say and it comes across flat, it’s not your fault…They come up to you at six and say it’s all changed. Here’s this, you gotta remember this now.”
