Hart had been led to believe by McMahon that Hogan would be dropping the WWE Championship to him at Summerslam. Previously, Hart claimed that following WrestleMania 9, Hogan had told "The Hitman" that he would be happy to return the favor down the line and put Hart over.

Shortly before King of the Ring, in what Hart summarized as some twisted game of political chess, he founded out that Hogan was apparently reneging on that promise. McMahon had told Hart that Hogan was refusing to do the honors.

After Hogan returned to his dressing room following his loss to Yokozuna, Hart stormed in and confronted him over Hogan's apparent change of heart. As Hogan "stood there speechless", Hart finished off his verbal torrent by telling Hogan that he could, "go f--k himself."
