Also, that 3 million a year was sure worth it in retrospect, wasn't it?

What harm did it actually cause WCW to pay Bret Hart that amount? None. WCW were willing to pay him that much, you can't blame Bret for getting a good deal. It wasn't his fault that Goldberg ended his career either.
Saying that Bret Hart never drew is a lousy path to go down in order to slag him off. He drew great numbers internationally and did decent enough domestically.
And what's with the Lanny Poffo example? Fuck's sake almost everybody in WCW was on a 6 figure salary. Bret was earning 6 times the amount that Ric Flair was earning - he wouldn't have been earning so much if he wasn't of value.
