Bret Hart says Hulk Hogan “would rather see the company sink than actually come back and help make the next star”

During a live Q&A event in Germersheim, Germany, WWE Hall of Famer Bret Hart said the following while discussing wrestlers that helped him out in his wrestling career…

“Everything for me started with the wrestlers that loved working with me like Mr. Perfect and Roddy Piper, and certain guys wanted to help me and prove to the office and the promotion that I could be a big star. And so I owe a lot to Mr. Perfect. He was the first guy to really go in there and just show everybody how good I was. Curt was one of my favorite guys to ever wrestle. Roddy Piper was probably the second.

When I look back on my career and I look back on wrestling, the industry, and I look back on what Roddy and Mr. Perfect did for me, I can tell you that Hulk Hogan never did that for anybody. He never helped anybody else after his time was being the top guy. He would rather see the company sink than actually come back and help make the next star, which in wrestling—that’s kind of how it always works. The next guy builds the next guy after. It’s like everybody helps each other kind of thing.”
