#3 “Bret screwed Bret.” – Vince McMahon
Trending
McMahon’s second entry on this list is, somehow, more bemoaned in wrestling circles than the previous entry. For starters, it was a slap in the face of millions of Bret Hart fans, at a time when McMahon had legitimate heat with them, on the heels of the Montreal Screwjob.
Add the fact that, the exact opposite happened by most accounts, and you have a quote that would live in infamy for some time, though it has been quelled somewhat, by the relationship between McMahon and Hart thawing out in the 19 years since.
While it was used to create the Mr McMahon ‘character’ and was probably never meant to be taken as truth, it was taken as such and helped fuel the negative reactions McMahon would garner for at least the next decade to come.
