Bret Hart has been critical of Seth Rollins in the past. He has called him
unprofessional and reckless after John Cena and Sting were injured in matches
with him. The injury to Finn Balor after taking a power bomb into the barricade
against Rollins at SummerSlam caused Bret to comment again. Bret told Nick
Hausman: "I take no great pleasure in saying 'I told you so,' but if you’re a
professional wrestler and you keep hurting opponents and or yourself, clearly
you’re doing it wrong. I wrestled a very realistic and physical style and not
once in 23 yrs did I ever hurt one opponent ever. Seth Rollins needs to improve
his technique and become the safest wrestler in the business. I have great
respect for Seth. I believe he’ll improve and hopefully stop hurting the talent
before someone gets killed. Wrestlers have to trust one another. If a wrestler
holds the life of another wrestler in his hands for the sake of his family, wife
or children you plain and simply cannot drop it! I saw this coming, if anything
WWE producers are negligent for not speaking up about it to him already, instead
they’re probably gushing with joy, slapping him on the back telling him 'great
job!' Bill Goldberg was similar. When I think of Samoa Joe nearly killing Tyson
Kidd, then see him continuing to use that deadly finish of his, I just shake my
head. It’s not real, it’s only supposed to look real; wrestlers are not crash
test dummies!" |
