Veteran wrestling personality discusses Bret Hart's scathing rant on Vince McMahon (Exclusive)
Veteran wrestling journalist Bill Apter recently spoke about Bret "The Hitman" Hart's comments on Vince McMahon.
McMahon came under the scanner after a lawsuit by former WWE employee Janel Grant, where she accused him of sexual misconduct and coercion. Former WWE Champion Hart also spoke about the issue during a recent interview with The Slate. He claimed that the allegations were sickening and probably true.
On a recent episode of Sportskeeda's The Wrestling Time Machine, Bill Apter pointed out that the Harts were very upfront with their feelings, and Bret is no different.
Bill felt that it was bold of Bret Hart, a former WWE employee, to chastise McMahon publicly and denounce him in front of the world.
"Very brutal. But Bret Hart has been a man who has spoken whatever has been on his mind. The whole Hart family was always like that. But he's saying if the allegations are true, he's not saying they are true, he feels they are probably, probably. But that's quite a statement to make. He did not mince his words."
