Steve Gerweck had a chance to interview former WWF and WCW World Heavyweight Champion Bret Hart. This is the second session of the interview.
Bret Hart talks about his meeting with Vince McMahon in Calgary after Owen Hart's death:
"Yeah, he begged me to meet him. I met him at this park bench that I had sat at for town years thinking about why he screwed me. I had talked to Martha's lawyers and was told, whatever I do, don’t talk about the incident. I just asked him if he knew anything more than what the papers were reporting, and he said no. I asked him why the show continued and was told there would have been a riot if the show had stopped. I asked him why he screwed me, and he said it was the biggest mistake he ever made and he regretted it every day and wanted me to end my career in the WWF."
He speaks out about the 1997 WWF Survivor Series in Montreal:
"...Vince said that (he had) this idea for (me) to drop the title in Montreal and then win it back at the next pay-per-view in the States, and I was like 'Why would I do that?' "
"The sad thing about it is that it should have been (a work)"
He talked about when Vince locked had locked himself in his office at the Molson Centre in Montreal:
"...The Undertaker, as I remember it, went down and actually got Vince out of his office and ordered him to get in the dressing room. I was in the shower when Rick Rude told me that Vince was standing in the dressing room. I told (Rude) to just tell McMahon to go. I told Vince that if he didn't leave by the time I was finished dressing, that I would knock him out."
He was asked if he knew for sure if Shawn Michaels was in on the double cross:
"Yeah, I know for sure"
