That being said though, there's no bigger Bret Hart mark than Bret Hart.
I'm willing to bet negro currency that Bret Hart still thinks about the Montreal screwjob every day to this day.

And so what if he does? I don't understand why he's supposed to not care about something that means something to him. Especially when things happen to constantly remind you of it, and especially when your brother dies and you feel responsible because you weren't around to stop the stunt that killed him.

When traumatic experiences happen to people, they think about it. Bret OBVIOUSLY takes himself and wrestling quite seriously, and what happened in Montreal is something that deeply effected him. I bet there's something that happened to you and everyone here in their life that effects them every day, and if reporters kept asking YOU about a defining moment in your life, you'd probably talk about it.

That's the thing though........more times than not, he chooses to proactively bash other wrestlers over events that happened 10-15 years ago.

His attacks on Triple H, Ric Flair, Hogan, Bischoff, etc., are all proactive in nature. Often times, reporters do not even have to ask him a question.

Yes - Bret was screwed, and he experienced an unbelievable family tragedy, but he does himself no favors by continuously bringing it up and attacking others.

Bret is and was a tremendous wrestler, but he is a highly bitter, petty, and egotistical.

Exactly this.

Also - If anything most people LIKE Cena the man. Just hate Cena the wrestler. I am just bored of him. Think hes annoying and lame on my TV. But I know Cena the man is a great person and his make a wish shit is epic.
