Raw on 17th. Is Bret Hart Drunk??

[pssteve]

On tonight's Raw in Toronto Hart had a major faux paus when he referred to WWE as WWF which probably will cost Vince with the Wildlife Fed and then after winning his match with The Miz Hart went to jump onto the middle rope to hold up the belt for the crowd and he missed and fell onto his knees. He recovered with help but he was either drunk or just too old. Anyone else notice this??

You're talking about a guy who has survived a stroke. Drunk? I doubt it. I was there last night and while it was AWESOME to see Bret win the US Title, I knew this wasn't the Bret of the early 90s. He's older, he's slower, he's not as agile as he used to be. Then again, which of us are?

This match was a hometown feeder match to give Bret a good sendoff at home and a title win in front of Canadian fans. I doubt his title reign lasts a few weeks.

Good grief, he's not drunk, he's just old and, as Triple B pointed out, had a stroke. He just can't work a match or take bumps anymore, but if anyone was really expecting him to, they were kidding themselves. It was great to see him win the US Title, even if all he did was put the Sharpshooter on the Miz. Unless they decide to retire the belt, I'm sure he'll drop the title next week or pretty soon.

Ok I guess age is catching up with all of us. It was a nice touch by Vince to have him win the title in Canada but the cynic in me thinks Vince will screw Hart again in the near future. The story line requires it.

 

[deanengemoen]

Nah; Vince has apparently retired the "Mr. McMahon" character so I don't think another screwjob is in the works. Bret will probably drop the title back to the Miz, probably with interference from Jericho, and that will be that.

I wonder if this means that Brett has signed an extension with the WWE. He has been saying that his last apperance for the WWE would be RAW in Toronto.

Im going to Smackdown here in Ottawa tonight, hoping that Bret will be there. He's not as physically able as he used to be, but it's nice to see him back in the WWE

How was the show?

 

[DaveLefebvre]

It was pretty good, was hoping for more Canadian wrestlers to make an appearance, but the only one was Christian, no Undertaker either was disappointing.
