New Owen DVD Coming Out! Martha DOES NOT Approve

I think you just hit the nail on the head. I do feel sorry for her. Losing her husband in such a horrible and needless way. Her life was forever altered because the WWF wanted to do a goofy bit for the ing Blue Blazer. If there ever was something not worth dying for, that's definitely it. But this bitterness isn't helping anyone. I hope someday she realizes that's she's only hurting herself. Although I didn't know Owen and was never fortunate enough to meet him, I'm positive that he wouldn't want this.

This is why I don't get my hopes up when it comes to Martha. It seemed too good to be true.

I'd kill to see those 5 in a boxed set from Mattel. Hopefully.. Someday..

It's a shame she is still holding on to a 15 year grudge

I'm sure if Owen had lived and stayed with WWF he would be the butt of several jokes for a few years to come, at least until Bret started to come around with the DVDs and the return.
I get that we, as fans, want to celebrate Owen's life but perhaps the best way is to leave his family and his memory in peace. Enjoy the Hasbro and Jakks figures, enjoy the matches on DVDs that are already produced. At some point not everything is about the money and in some way, Martha has a value on her husband and family's life and that value seems to be no amount of money WWE could ever throw her way. Personally, I admire that and if I were to get married I'd want a wife who is true to her convictions like that.

Actually, I do have understanding left for Martha, forget about fans and everyone else, what Martha is doing is very unhealthy for her. I hate to see how she was apparently destroyed by Owen's death, she should have tried to move on, but I guess not everyone can. I know if I died on a woman I would want her to be able to move on, maybe remarry, that doesn't mean betray a memory, just that I would want health and happiness for her. With Owen being such a fun-loving playful guy, I think it's safe to assume he wouldn't wanted this either, he'd want the best for Martha, his kids and the fans too. 

I know it's stupid, but Owen was so good, I was busy disliking him the way he wanted me to when he died. His death might have been the total end of kayfabe for me, I really wanted him back to cheer for the first time.

I have to laugh at all of you who are so quick to call this widow "selfish" for not being supportive of the company her husband worked and died making money from his image in the same post as saying how you're most disappointed that this means there won't be a Mattel figure made for YOUR collections. Think about it for a second... She's absolutely in the right here. Sure, maybe OWEN would do anything for the fans, including putting himself in life-ending situations for a mid-card gimmick, but why should she be expected to compromise her convictions so that you can buy more toys to play with/put on a wall? Be honest with yourselves, this isn't about "honoring his memory" or "celebrating his life and contributions to wrestling" (hint; that was done back in the 90s when he passed away), this is about you wanting more things for you collections. If you really want to honor Owen, watch the tapes and videos that he was a part of when he was alive, wear the old t-shirts, collect the Hasbros and BCAs, encourage others to do the same, and stop berating his poor widow who has said everything she has to say on the matter.


May he rest in peace.

Honestly I really have no idea who owen hart really is I know nothing about him.I mean I know who he is and he's a hart and stuff but there's a whole new generation including me who would love to know who he was.Maybe not realese it on DVD but how about just a short documentary on the WWE Network?.I understand martha is upset but we Need something new from the owen team to keep his memory and legacy alive and I think this would do it.
