Listen up, because The Hitman’s only gonna say this once.I turn on WWE in 2025 and I don’t even recognize the place anymore. It’s a cartoon. It’s a three hours of bad comedy sketches, TikTok dances, and guys who couldn’t lace my boots doing the same five moves over and over while the announcers scream like they’re calling a bingo hall on fire.
Where’s the wrestling? Where’s the excellence? Where’s the pride in this business I damn near died for?
Back in my day, we went out there and we fought. We bled. We told stories in that ring that made grown men cry. Now? Now it’s a corporate circus where the inmates are running the asylum and the only thing sharper than the booking is the decline in quality.
And don’t get me started on the so-called 'creative genius' running the show. They’ve got more holes in their storylines than Bill Goldberg had in his streak when he finally ran into somebody who could actually wrestle.
This isn’t the WWE anymore. This is a three-ring reality show with a wrestling ring slapped in the middle for tax purposes. The Hart Family built this industry on blood, sweat, and respect. What you’re watching now is a cheap imitation wearing the logo like a Halloween costume.
I’m Bret 'The Hitman' Hart: the best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be. And right now, watching what they’ve done to my business… it makes me sick
