WWF Superstars, Mar. 15, 1997WWF Superstars, Mar. 15, 1997BRET THE HITMAN HART
Jim Ross gets into the ring, with a microphone.
Jim Ross: Ladies and gentlemen, let me present the Hitman, Bret Hart!
The Hart Foundation music starts to play as the fans start cheering. The Hitman heads down the aisle, dressed in his pink and black singlet, leather Calgary Hitmen, jacket and his sunglasses. He slides into the ring, and holds his hands out to the fans.
JR: Now, Bret, on RAW many people verbally assaulted you, the Anvil and the rest of the Mega Powers, you asked for this time to respond to those statements.
Hitman: Thank-you JR, but the first person I wanted to respond to, is Mr. Perfect. Perfect, I accept your offer, you can teach Taylor how to wrestle and I will exellently execute Austin, and this time when he is begging for mercy, I won't let a little thing like a chain upside my head distract me.
JR: Bret, it seemed various members of the Empire attacked your bravery, saying you are hiding behind the other members of the Mega Powers, what do you have to say to that?
Hitman: First off, all the other Mega Powers members have their own minds, and decide to do things on their own. Has it occured to anyone, that maybe the Brutus, Randy, the Warrior, and LOD have gotten tired of Pillman's mouth? He has attacked every one of those people verbally, perhaps they just ahd enough. The Anvil and I just had enough first. If Pillman wants to be the most biased sports announcer in history well, he had better be ready to pay the price, and stop whining about it.
JR: But, Bret Stone Cold made some statements about sneak attacks, and not facing the Empire eye to eye.
Hitman: (laughing) JR, I have NO problem taking people on face to face, if that is what they want. But like I said they set the rules of engagement. They made the sneak attacks in the lockerrooms, they made the suprise attacks during matches. They state their next target to destroy is the Mega Powers, but we are fighting back, and they don't like it. Well get used to it. And if you have problems with suprise attacks and the like, then all you have to do, is change your tactics. Hey! If the war you declared is getting too much for you to handle, then feel free to tuck tail and run.
JR: Those are some strong words Bret, but what do you have to say about the Harlem Heat's comments about your being a whiner, and their questions about your loyalty to your fans, and their loyalty to you.
Hitman: A whiner? I think you boys have me confused with someone else. All I have ever done is state the facts. Your last match with us was rife with interferance. If I was a whiner I would demand an immediate rematch, which I did not. And the same goes for the Austin match. These things happen when you wrestle against men who would kill their own mother to get ahead in the world. I accept that, I just don't like it. So Heat if you feel we are whining about nothing, in our next match lets make our respective stables stay out of the building. That way you can defeat us fair and square and I cannot complain. Unless you are afraid you may lose, which I understand, you seem to have trouble standing on your own four feet. Now, my loyalty to the fans? I have said over and over again that the fans are the most important thing to me in wrestling. I cannot prove that, but I think they believe me. You cannot fool the pubilc, eventually they will see through all lies and subterfuges. And if I did not truely care for them they would have realized it by now, and we would not be the tag team of the month AGAIN. But don't trust me, lets ask them. Okay everyone, (he looks at all the fans) if you like the Hitman, please just stand up and yell a little so the Empire can hear you.
Almost everyone in the stands jumps to their feet, stomping and cheering, some shout "Hitman, Hitman" The noise made by the fans is almost deafening.
Hitman: AND THAT is why I am the best there is the best ther was and the best there ever will be!
(He gives JR his mic, and slides out of the ring, he climbs over the guard rail and leaves through the fans, high fiving them, by the time he leaves he has given up or lost his glasses and his jacket)
JR: Well i guess that answers that, thank you Hitman.
JR leaves the ring.
