A genuine surprise, Bret Hart interrupted the Q&A to storm on stage and cause the live crowd to lose their minds. Without doubt, nobody in attendance was expecting the Hitman to be there. That only made things feel even more special, Hart was there to add yet more value for money to the experience.

Once the crowd settled down a little, Bret was only too happy to discuss that which has been talked about as much as (if not more than) any other subject in wrestling history. Few need a refresher on the events of the 'Montreal Screwjob' at Survivor Series 1997, least of all Bret Hart fans.

Reflecting on the premature ending to his match with Shawn Michaels, Bret said that he was troubled because it was on course to become a legitimate classic. Aside from the controversy, Hart believes people would still be talking about the main event today had both men fulfilled their in-ring plans as scheduled.

Time has healed a lot of wounds for Hart, it came across that he enjoyed working with Michaels despite their personal differences.
