Bret Hart: Hulk Hogan Made Sure WCW Didn’t Do Anything With Me, Eric Bischoff Was An Absolute Moron

Bret Hart joined WCW in 1997 after the infamous Montreal Screwjob. Hart made hs presence felt at WCW Starrcade 1997, preventing Hulk Hogan from retaining the WCW World Title after feeling referee delivered a fast count against Sting. The fast count is questionable.

Hart’s run with WCW was less than memorable, and Hart didn’t hold back when reflecting on his time with the promotion while speaking on the Masked Man Show.

“[Hulk] was a great guy and a great star and I got along really good with Hulk for years. I was one of his first matches. I helped make him from day one when the only move he knew how to do was a bear hug. I remember going out there and making him. I was a young guy and I was happy to do for him. I was good friends with Hulk. I was in Japan with him. In WWF, I always worked his undercards. I had so much respect for him and was always a friend to him. He was on top from 84 to 94. That’s a long time wearing the crown. I will always shake my head and wonder what it was as to why he was such a roadblock for me. He wouldn’t do anything for me. He made sure, and I know this for a fact, he made sure when I was in WCW that they didn’t do anything for me. ‘Don’t do anything with him. Just leave him. Let him sit on the bench in the dressing room.’ WCW would fly me down in first class, first class car rental, first class hotel, and when I got to the building, they would tell me I was off and I’d just fly home. That’s how stupid they were. They were a stupid bunch of idiots. Eric Bischoff, he was an absolute moron. I can’t say anything about WCW and how stupid they were. They were the dumbest idiots I ever had any involvement with,” said Hart.

Elsewhere during the interview, Bret Hart gave more thoughts on Hulk Hogan.
