While Bret Hart was giving his acceptance speech due to being inducted as part of the Hart Foundation, a crazed fan attacked Hart and took him down, even landing a punch. While Bret Hart was not injured, the attacker was then pulverized by members of the WWE roster, including Dash Wilder and Ronda Rousey's husband, Travis Browne.

He was referring to All Elite Wrestling (AEW), a professional wrestling startup by Tony Khan, featuring Cody Rhodes, Kenny Omega, and the Young Bucks, which has attracted a lot of interest of late.
Here's the full exchange of the fan attacking Bret Hart. Travis Browne (Rousey's husband and former UFC fighter) and the New Day both reacted very quickly and deserve a lot of praise. #WWEHOFpic.twitter.com/T0fzLq5grz
