Bret Hart is one of the top wrestlers of the 90s. Following the “Montreal Screwjob” incident in 1997, Bret departed from WWE and joined the rival promotion WCW. He signed a multi-million-dollar contract with WCW. However, Bret’s career in WCW kept short after a match with Goldberg.
In 1999, Bret Hart defended his WCW World Heavyweight Championship against Goldberg at Starrcade. During the match, Goldberg hit a thrust kick to Bret’s head. As of result, Bret Hart suffered a severe concussion and he retired from in-ring competitions a few months later.
During a recent K&S WrestleFest signing, Bret Hart said that Goldberg got into the WWE Hall of Fame by hurting other wrestlers. Bret further said WWE should remove Goldberg from the Hall of Fame.
I always thought that if Goldberg got into the Hall of Fame then Horowitz should've gone into the Hall of Fame. Horowitz can actually wrestle. Goldberg never could. I think he got in there for hurting everybody he worked with...They should [on being told that WWE should put Horowitz into the Hall of Fame]. They should take Goldberg out.- H/T ComicBook

And I will take it to my grave, because I am sure that he will never forgive me. But, hey man what else can I say? I said I was sorry and that it was unintentional, and it was the furthest thing from my mind, I don't know, a million times?
And of those a million times, he's come back with, 'Yes, it was intentional. And he's a punk. And he didn't know what he was doing and he ruined my career.' You know, it sucks.
