In an interview with Forbes, Bret Hart continued to take aim at Seth Rollins for the injuries that John Cena and Sting suffered in matches against him. He called Rollins ‘reckless’ and compared him to Goldberg. Here are highlights:

On Rollins injuring John Cena’s nose: “He [Rollins] knees him the face so hard, and so recklessly, and so dangerously. He could easily kill somebody with a knee like that to the face. It’s a testimony to John Cena. A, he finished the match and b, that he didn’t get a shotgun and shoot Seth Rollins when he came through the curtain.”

On how Cena’s injury compares to Goldberg kicking him: “Bill Goldberg kicked me in the head and ended my career because he didn’t know what he was doing. You get guys that cost me millions and millions of dollars, cost me my career, probably led to my stroke, and so many things that happened all because somebody didn’t know what they were doing.”

On how good wrestlers don’t injure opponents: “The best wrestlers don’t hurt anyone for real. I wrestled 23 straight years all over the world. My greatest boast is I never wrestled one single wrestler in my career. The safety of my opponent was critical to me.”

On Rollins’ possibly ending Sting’s career faster: “[He] did things to a guy that kind of ended his career a lot faster.”

On Shane and Stephanie McMahon not understanding sports injuries: “They don’t understand that when you do these kinds of things, you can kill somebody. It may look great but you really need to think twice with what you’re doing.”
