Goldberg takes massive shot at WWE legend Bret Hart
WWE Hall of Famer Goldberg recently took a jab at his former rival, Bret "The Hitman" Hart. He referenced one of the most controversial moments in professional wrestling history.
In a WCW match at Starrcade 1999, Da Man delivered a misjudged superkick to The Hitman, causing a severe concussion. This injury forced Hart to retire from in-ring competition.
While the former Universal Champion has acknowledged the accident and expressed remorse, Bret Hart has publicly criticized Da Man over the years, calling him dangerous and reckless.
Speaking on a recent episode of The Von Erich podcast, the 57-year-old WWE legend expressed concerns over how past wrestling stars are often overlooked in today's wrestling landscape. Goldberg then seemingly took a massive shot as The Hitman, using the phrase "the moron I kicked in the head."
"The current generation and the next, they’re completely dependent on what people tell them and what they see on the internet. It’s a shame that these morons that didn’t feel the excitement or can understand the excitement when my music hit, when I blow smoke out of my nose, and nine times out of ten, you really had to question whether I was hurting the guy, and that’s the fine line that you have gotta walk."
The former WCW World Heavyweight Champion added:
"Granted, unfortunately, a couple times, Steiner, I’m not even gonna mention his name, but the moron I kicked in the head, but unfortunately, things like that happen. It’s a rough business." [H/T: Fightful]
