Bret Hart On Easiest Wrestlers To Work With 

Legend says that Macho yelled at Shawn Michaels and Scott Hall for going over their time in a PPV match, and they had to cancel several undercards where young guys didn't get to wrestle. Macho wasn't afraid of anyone

I could listen to Bret Hart tell stories all day and never get bored.

Whenever he's asked who he liked working with the most he always says Curt Henning... thats respect...

Love that he mentioned Sting... Always feel like their feud in 98 was like I was living in a dream.

Man, Hennig was so good. I could’ve watched Bret vs Curt on any card.

I could listen to Bret Hart all day

As someone who is a massive fan of Bret, Kurt Hennig, and Randy Savage, I love how much respect these three guys had for each other. You'll never hear Bret badmouth either one, and neither did Kurt or Randy.

Bret is such class act. He’s always honest. Bret is the GOAT!

Bret loved wrestling, professional and cared for fellow wrestlers, making sure he didn't injure anyone. HOF the best there ever was!

Bret vs Macho on SNME in ‘87, the one where Macho beat Bret on one leg, is one of the best matches I’ve ever seen. Two of the greatest ever, both at the top of their game, telling an incredible story in the ring.

It's a shame that we didn't get Bret vs. Macho Man at Wrestlemania 9. That was the logical match

Bret Hart was blessed with a great memory. The kind of man who has stories for days.

Whether he knows it or not, Bret Hart has a dungeon. Indy wrestlers all over the world look up to him. They watch tape and try to emulate without copying him. His attitude, safety in the ring, and legit toughness influence guys to this day. Living legend.

You'll never see another Macho Man, Mr. Perfect, Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels again. These guys were fabulous athletes who could do it all.

I'd give anything to see the Macho Man cutting an unscripted, unprepared 30-minute promo.

People think Brett Hart buries everyone. So not true. He always speaks very highly and respectful of the talented wrestlers.

Great to hear Bret give Sting some major credit there as one of the safest and fun performers in the ring.

Bret may be a bit honest and critical but I also love his modesty truly. He just never cares what he has to lose or gain but simply tries to tell stories how he recalls then and seems pretty damn genuine!

I knew right off the bat that the first two names he would mention were "Mr. Perfect" Curt Henning and Owen Hart. Love you Bret!

Goldberg makes excuses for hitting Bret Hart too hard, and then also cries about what William Regal did to him.

I enjoy every Bret Hart match, and Randy Savage as well. Those 2 guys are among the most underrated superstars in wrestling history. Hart was a more technical and wasn't as in your face, Randy could bang a bit more and fly high but they were both among my absolute favorites to watch. I like how Bret always tells it how he thinks and doesn't hold it back to possibly not offend someone out there.

No one has a bad word to say about Randy Every one says he was the most professional they ever dealt with

Curt Hennig was the best. He executed all his matches perfectly.

Not surprised Perfect was the first name.

Remember Bret and Owen helped and protected the Rock when he was bit green.

Bret Hart was my favourite wrestler, the screeching to start his music, the manly pink gear. The cool shades, and that swagger. And the most beautiful submission, the sharpshooter. Bret made Pink cool.

I can listen to this man's stories all day. Class act. Phenomenal wrestler and human being.

Holy crap, you talking to Bret Hart! Congratulations.

People say Bret is bitter, but he’s more than willing to give guys credit when they deserve it.

Macho Man is one guy who always put a good match on with anyone, WWF/E really screwed up by making him an announcer for a period of time which gave him the reason to jump to WCW so he could get back in the ring.

I caught Bret-Owen at a house show for the title. Those two came out and still put on a clinic even if it wasn't televised.

Mr Perfect was/still is one of my all time favourite wrestler. This was the height of the WWE I watched in the early 90s in the UK. His matchup with Bret Hart at SummerSlam 91 for the Intercontinental belt, to this day still one of the best wrestling matches I've ever seen. Two of the best technically gifted wrestlers (until Shawn Michaels made it three!) If I remember, Perfect had the longest reign with the belt until Bret beat him at 'Slam. *RIP,* Curt Henning.

I stopped watching WWF in 1997 but before i did Bret Hart was one of my favorites...

My all time favorite wrestler. The GOAT of wrestling psychology

The Harts, Bulldogs, and all the Calgary boys in the early 80’s were awesome. Much ❤️

Brest hart was my hero! Growing up in the 90s ❤️😀

Bret was definitely good enough to be a main eventer. Anytime, anywhere.

Bret Hart is living his best life, he seems happier than he's looked in a very long time seemingly, it's a beautiful thing to see

Machp man and Bret Hart two of the best to ever do it.

Bret and Owen Hart, Macho Man, Curt Hening, Jake Robert's and Kerry, Kevin and David Von Erich off the top of my head maybe the only 2nd generation wrestlers that were good and understood the business.

Very first live wrestling show I went was in Edmonton in about 1978 or 79 and Bret was in the opening match of the night. It was a ton of fun! He won the match with the figure four.

Bret Hart they say he's dry. But I love him, a true gentleman.

Watched a lot of wrestling since the 70's but my personal opinion is that a Bret Hart vs Macho Man match is the most athletic, skillful, entertaining, making fake look real (I say this with the greatest of respect and honor to ALL wrestlers) match of any two combatants. My two personal favorites of all the great wrestlers who've entertained us over the years.

Love Bret, him and Sting had cool matches. Two of the best to do it and they did look natural. I love his passion for wrestlers not hurting people. Owen did hurt Austin so surprised he said Owen but cool on Sting and Macho

It's wild to hear Brett talk about matches with Owen being "easy", when I remember their steel cage match and Bret performing a superplex off the top of the cage, into the ring, and wondering "how did that not hurt?"

My favorite wrestler of all time I live in Maine so never got to see any wrestling back when I was a kid. One bucket list item is to meet Bret but sadly it will never happen. My second is the undertaker. Bret Hart truly the best there is, the best there was and the best there ever will be!

Curt Henning and Bret Hart.. Style and characters very similar. "Perfect" and "Best". 2 of my favorites of the late 80s/early 90s.

There was some match where kayfabe one of the opponents' flight was late and he came running into the ring in his street clothes and his luggage to beat a DQ and immediately started wailing on the other guy. The absurdity of this tickled my late father-in-law so much; it's a fond memory of mine. Wish I could remember who was competing.

Curt Hennig Sting Macho Man Shawn Michaels Bret Hart Definitely should be in anyone's list of greatest prowrestlers of all time

What people said about Bobby Eaton was like a day off plus one of the nicest guys you will ever meet!

Who won that match with savage, & is it on video? Ty.

Loved watching the wwf from the early 90s they were all great wrestlers.

So awesome to hear people say good things about Randy Savage.

I'm not sure off the top of my head, but this might have even been the match that Hart featured on his DVD back in 2005/2006. It was a fantastic match! All their matches were! When a wrestler says that working with you "is like a day off," you know you have 100% trust.

Is anyone else really interested in hearing that 30min interview Savage did to stall for Hart?

Bret Hart was a true master of pro wrestling

Bret Hart VS Bobby Eaton was a dream Match I never got to see. Those two were smooth as butter and I bet would've put together a great match. Then afterwards been in the locker room jonesing to have another match cause neither man got hurt.

Bret vs perfect at summer slam was amazing

I knew the first one he will say is Mr.Perfect Curt Hennig

Bret Hart stars in 350 Days documentary w 3 dozen legends

As he asked the question, my brain said "I bet Curt Hennig". Sure enough....

Hardest working wrestler of his time...and a Canadian treasure.love Bret Hart

Funny that he talked about improvising with Macho Man, who’s infamous for meticulously planning every detail of his matches.

Is the match on video?

Hitman vs. Perfect at Summerslam was truly incredible.

Bret Hart is one the great ones, thanks for sharing.

I wonder if this is the Saturday’s Night Main Event match from ‘87

Everyone always talks about how Randy Savage always wanted to script the matches hold for hold until I heard this. Pretty awesome and Bret could work great on the fly so I'm sure Macho wasn't much concerned on those occasions.

Fly all the way to South bend from Detroit lol its like 3 or 4 hours away

It is fascinating that these guys can wing it and not step on each other's moves and routines

Was this story in Bret's book? I can't recall.

I still remember how OVER as hell Bret Hart was during the Survivor Series 1989 PPV when it was him in Duggan's 4x4 Team against Macho King's King's Court Team. Bret was actually the last but one team member to be eliminated and was eventually eliminated by the Macho King by his flying elbow, but I remember the crowd went nuts when Macho King was in the ring and Bret got a hot tag to get in the ring and it was fun to watch the two face off.

Detroit to South bend is 3 hour car driv and no time zone change.

My all Time Fav Wrestler

He is my Favourite,lots of Love brat for you from India 🇮🇳

Bret is referring to some 1987-1988 house show matches against Randy (the period when Hogan saved Randy from the Harts/Honky Tonk triple team...) . . . and Bret's only ever taken 3 clotheslines from Ultimate Warrior (WCW Nitro 1998) - no matches together (aside from Rumble 1988, house show tag team late 1992, and War Games 1998). The Mountie may be the only one who is technically undefeated against The Hitman. There's only a few people Bret never had a match with; King Mabel, the Steiners, Jericho, Regal, Texas Tornado... WCW had the time and chance to do something with Regal vs Hart, like a couple of US Title matches in 1998, - gotta get in those 18 minute NWO promos instead haha !!!

Was this Macho Man/Bret match on film anywhere?

Bret Hart was the safest wrestler ever and the best technical wrestler also the greatest in ring wrestler Bret was my guy 🇨🇦🤼

Has Hart told this story in fuller detail elsewhere? It sounds amazing, but I'm left with so many questions.

Awesome story!! To run in that ring cold. Only a seasoned vet could do that!

When he says Curt Henning BEFORE his brother Owen that’s saying something

Bret vs Mr. Perfect would be the match of the night, any night, any event. They put on 2 masterpieces at Summerslam and KOTR. If any wrestling fan hasn't seen them yet, please do.

I would've loved to have heard more details about this! If Bret was replacing Jake against Savage it was probably during early 1992, at which point both Savage and Bret were faces. I wonder how the crowd reacted and who they rooted more for. And of course I want to know who won!

0:20 Uh huh. Stone Cold Steve Austin may disagree.

Surprised he said Sting. I never thought they had particularly good matches together.

Wouldn't expect him to say macho man. Loved macho man's promos. He said the craziest shit.

I don’t think he meant to do that. Goldberg was new. Unfortunately it’s hard to patch some things. On a smaller scale, had a ground burst sim hit my head. Friendly. Always was different. Bret Hart was one of the best to watch. Like his foes too.

man, jimmy kimmel looks really excited to interview bret here

Nice video .

Barely two seconds in and he already blasted Goldberg, some things never change😂😂

Wow now I want to watch the match.

Look up Bret vs DiBiase matches on here. It's no surprise those two worked well together given how skilled they both were.

When he mentioned Sting❤

Bret and macho and ultimate we're my favorite wrestlers of all Time

Detroit and South Bend are in the same time zone

Bret is the most honest guy in wrestling

Pretty surprised he said he just did 20 minutes on the fly with Savage (multiple times) 'cause I've heard frequently that Randy was so meticulous on his matches that he wanted everything written down/gone over in detail prior to hitting the ring.

did bret hart ever have a match with rick rude ?

Mr Perfect and Macho Man were awesome!
