Twitter CAN Be Fun!
Bret Hart has joined Twitter.
Now normally this wouldn't be worthy of more than a "oh that's cool" and moving on, but! Bret had a little Q&A; to get himself into the
Twitter flow and ended up bad-mouthing Hogan. Hogan didn't take too kindly to that and now it's on:
HitmanBretSHart
@kevmtaylor71 Hogan's nothing but a two-faced, backstabbing, steroid freak who deserved everything he got.

Listen to where Bretts speaking from,it's funny he's done everything he's saying I did. HH

@HulkHogan4Real That's not what John Graziano thinks, dickhead.
LETS GO BRET! LETS GO BRET! LETS GO BRET!

have to admit that they're the equivalent to hard-working people who've earned legitimate acting careers? Fuck that noise, junior. -

Haha, holy shit, that's awesome. Bret's pulling no punches.
Is everyone mad here?
Of course they are, and you are too... otherwise, you wouldn't have come here.

I just love how Hogan's reply was akin to "I know you are but what am I" and then Bret just went for the quick low blow.

The lesson: Don't grow up idolizing wrestlers, they're ALL children.
I can't stop laughing, however.
At least this makes more sense than Aimee Mann vs. 50 Cent.

I think Bret went nuclear way too fast. I mean why did he start tweeting shit about HH to begin with - is there more backstory or did Bret just
decide to flame him out of the blue?
Last I heard Bret's kids were all meth heads or something, and the Hart family is pretty damn dysfunctional from Stu all the way down - not sure
bringing family into it is smart.
What's next - "Hey Hulk your ex-wife is banging a 20 yr old and spending all of your money"?

He was doing a Q&A; to twitter fans and someone asked him his thoughts on Hogan, so it wasn't a flame out of left field.

Someone also asked earlier what his thoughts were on TNA (I think they asked what he would do to improve TNA) and he said he would tar and feather
Hogan and Bischoff. Someone else asked him if he watches TNA though, and he said he doesn't.
And someone asked what he thought about Charlie Sheen. He said that unfortunately, he reminds him of Teddy Hart.

I assume this is legit, take it for what its worth

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
Thoughts on Hulk Hogan: Hogan s nothing but a two-faced,
backstabbing, steroid freak who deserved everything he got.
Would he open a wrestling school?: I think about it. Maybe one of
these days.

It was funny. It's been 4 years; a little bit of black humor is OK. I mean, OO has been using a gif of Benoit flying into the WTC since about a
week after that whole thing happened so I think this is the wrong place to get pissy about Bret making a relatively tame joke about it.

I think it's more the fact that Bret knew and worked with Benoit, as opposed to some random person joking about it here. If a friend of mine
went psycho and murdered his family, I don't think I'd ever make a little "haha" reference about it, regardless of how much time had
passed.
Anyhow, I'm not saying crucify Bret for it, but I do think it was a questionable thing to say.

I think it could have been funny but the delivery was off. The "no pun intended obviously" makes me wonder if he was trying to be funny or just used
the "killer" adjective and then couldn't figure out what to.
Obviously with the graziono joke he's not above dark humor and that's fine. If I knew he was being funny I'd laugh along. I'm
not pissy about it, I'm just not sure he meant it as a joke. Maybe it's the whole tweet thing I'm not used to or maybe I'll
just blame Canada.

Awesome. Bret went straight for the death blow. Bret and Owen always struck me as the most normal and level headed Hart family members.
I am surprised that Bret has not kept in touch with his nephew and niece. I assume Martha cut off all ties with the rest of the Hart family. I guess
we will never see Owen get inducted into the HOF because of Martha.

I never understood Martha wanting to Keep Owen out of the HOF, or to keep blocking the WWE from doing any DVD's/toys/SD vs Raw vg characters...
ect.
I mean I get that the family probably got a good settlement out of things, but I'm also sure that the window's closing on fans who'd
remember Owen enough to spend money on him. Hell, why not license it to go to a charity as I'm sure the WWE would be willing to sign away their
profits just for the good ink it'd get them.
As to a lot of the guys loving Orton I think Rick said something about this before as relayed by one of his insiders that the reason why the
guy's so liked by the "boys" is that he works a very low impact type style and usually plays nice with others enough to make them look
good.
I thought aside from airing his obvious problems with his brother Bruce, that this was something a little diffrent and refreshing from Hart as he
seems a lot happier and is putting a lot of guys over isntead of it being a 50/50 thing.
I did notice that outside of Macho man everyone he loves seems to be Canadian or Texan though (Piper, Harts, Benoit, Jericho,, Edge vs Austin, HBK,
and Taker). Its funny to see that for such small places (population wise) how many talents come out of there and how they all seem to stick
together.
Loved the Cole snipe too.

I have nothing to back this up, as I don't know Martha Hart, or anyone in the Hart family, but I always got the sense she thought wrestling was
beneath her, Owen, and her family and that she's embarrassed that's how her husband made his living.

Damn good, straight-to-the-point Q&A;, Benoit joke included. I think, if anything, Bret's close proximity to that whole tragedy means he should
be able to joke about it now. Lighten up people.
And the dual thoughts of him inducting HBK into the Hall of Fame as well as a Hart Foundation made up of him, Edge, Christian, Trish, Jericho, and
The Hart Dynasty almost made my head explode from awesomeness.

I'll say this much: The Hitman is my favourite wrestling of all time and Hogan is my least favourite wrestler of all time! Having said that,
after viewing their Twitter exchange they're both making themselves look like fourth graders
