It doesn’t get bigger than WrestleMania when it comes to WWE. This is still the case in 2023, when major events are more common than ever before – and was especially the case thirty years ago.
Back in 1993, Hulk Hogan was still one of the top names in the company, though Bret Hart was quickly rising to that top spot. There was issues between the two, and when Hogan would swoop in and take the main event moment away from Hart – things only got worse.
Hulk Hogan Gives His Side Of Issues With Bret Hart
Speaking on the Full Send Podcast, Hulk Hogan would give his side of the story when it comes to his issues with Hart – claiming they’re mostly on Hart’s side, with Hogan never having a major issue with Hart on a personal level. Hogan had the following to say.
“I don’t know. It’s just different. Some guys see things differently. Like the Bret Hart thing, I really didn’t understand because when he got pissed at me, I won the belt from Yokozuna at a WrestleMania, where Bret lost and Bret told me to go in the ring and wrestle, and then I won the belt right after Bret wrestled. The deal was for me to drop it back to Yokozuna. Then Bret got in my face, like ‘Hey, you were supposed to drop the belt to me.’ I said, ‘No, I’m not.’ He goes, ‘Yeah you are.’ I said, ‘Let’s talk to Vince, then.’
So we both went in and sat down and talked to Vince, and Vince looked at Bret and said, ‘Bret, that’s what you thought you heard.’ Ever since then, he hated my guts and wanted to kill me. Then when Eric Bischoff asked me if I could work with him at WCW, I said, ‘Hell yeah, bring him in. I can work with anybody.’ All of a sudden, we had about eight or nine great matches. We got along great, we traveled together, we had eight or nine good matches, and then when WCW’s over, he hated me. I said, ‘Okay. Whatever.’ But it’s just stuff like that,”
