    Yes I know wrestling is fake and I know it sucks. I know MMA is infinitely better and I know wrestling isn't even entertaining anymore.

    All that said, for the first time in an incredibly long time, I will watch Raw is War next Monday night. Why? Bret Hart is returning after 12 years!

    Bret Hart was one of my boyhood idols, and seeing him on tv hopefully deal with the Montreal incident will be awesome. It will probably be the last time in my life that I watch wrestling, but I will watch it for sure!

    Just a heads up to everyone. Next Monday Night, the Hitman returns.

    Edit: I am prepared for the insults. Just make them funny.

    Best there was, best there is and best there ever will be...

    I used to be a huge fan back in the 90's and loved Wrestling with Shadows, really let in an audience into the inner workings of pro-wrestling.

    I'll be watching, can't wait for another classic Bret Hart/Shawn Michaels confrontation...those were awesome.

    Wrestling with shadows was good but pretty depressing. He looked old and broken down. Excellence of Execution!

    That's cool. Thanks for the heads up. If it weren't for you I probably wouldve never known. Raw is just so uninteresting these days.

    I remember applying the sharpshooter on my little sister when we were little. Good times.

    I bet he's going to be pretty hard to recognize. He looked really old and out of shape with gray hair when I saw him like 5 years ago.

    The Sharpshooter was the best finisher back in the day...easy to do on relatives and looked awesome when either Hart or Sting pulled it off.

    There's been multiple wrestling threads before so don't worry about it. The original ones are multiple pages. Then they turn into, I remember when I used to watch Houston wrestling and those commercials!


    I'm pretty excited. I'm a huge fan of vanilla midgets. Those guys knew how to work. This is basically a response to another company with that old bald fat guy, what's his name, brother!

    Imma watch next week for sure.


    Mike Tyson is suppose to host sometime in the year too. Remember Tyson/Austin from 1996/1997?

    HGH and coming off the oxycontin can do wonders for an aging wrestlers appearance.

    ever see the Rock's sharpshooter? it's one of the most pathetic looking sharpshooters in the history of wrestling. it was basically a halfass walls of jericho.

    Yep, Jan 4th.

    I don't know what he'll be doing, but he'll be back! I used to sharpshooter everyone as a kid. I also owned the glasses.

    Not to mention the fact that his career ended after getting kicked in the head by Bill Goldberg. A few months later, the Hitman suffered a stroke.

    He is physically not in good condition.

    He's not going to be wrestling. He will be the "Guest Host" of RAW is WAR. Rumors are he will be fighting Vince at Wrestlemania 26.

    McMahon about to address the situation in the next segment!

    Don't screw me Vince. I'm actually paying attention to the TV for once

    yeah, Hart has allegedelly signed a four month contract.

    12 years. This is bigger than Hogan because of the Montreal Incident.

    I would love to see Hart/Michaels 3 at WM 26 but not sure what shape the Hitman is in...
