But Bret said he wasn't going to watch WM 32.

Bret has a podcast? I love Bret. He's my favorite ever. But that podcast must be boring as hell. He's so monotone and talks so slow.

I haven't listened to it but everything he said about the ladder match in the written part of the article was right.

For anyone who can't be bothered listening to it, I found notes someone else made on another site which basically sums up everything he said. - Disappointed with WrestleMania booking. Says "logic didn't prevail" and the booking "wasn't up to snuff"
- Says he was the man who brought ladder matches to the WWE and can't believe what a "piece of crap match" it's turned into
- Disappointed in the IC Title ladder match. "A lot of bullcrap, a lot of wasted moves, too much laying around". Calls it a prop match. "Stupid spots that make no sense". Still calls the match the best match on the card
- Says he'd line all the bookers up against the wall and shoot them
- "Real wrestling is almost dead. CM Punk, Daniel Bryan and Bret Hart, that kind of wrestling is almost dead"
- Thought AJ was going to win against Jericho. Called AJ one of the better wrestlers in the company right now, but said the match seemed too choreographed
- Says he hates the Styles Clash. "Looks like you just gently brush someone's stomach on the ground". However, he calls it the Calf Crusher (got the two moves confused)
- Thought New Day's entrance was pretty cool, even though he didn't understand it that much
- Thought it was great to get HBK, Mick and Austin on the show, but thought it was insane to have the babyfaces lose and then have the legends beat both the heels and the babyfaces
- "Real mistake" to put LoN over New Day. Win at WrestleMania for New Day would have been great for them. Jokes that maybe Stephanie's kids booked the segment
- Really likes Barrett. Says he's done the best with the lame gimmicks he's been given. Thinks Japan may be "his cup of tea". Compares Barrett to Drew Mcintyre. Both really good talents that were never used correctly
- Said he'd really like to work with Rusev and Sheamus in the ring. It meant a lot that they cited him as a "dream opponent" and "inspiration" at Axxess
- Said he liked Ambrose vs Lesnar because "it did what it was supposed to do". Also says Kendo Sticks hurt. "Wasn't the most exciting, but it was credible and real so points for that". Thinks blood would have made a huge difference
- Nakamura vs Zayn was the best match of the whole WrestleMania weekend. Asuka vs Bayley was better than any match on the WrestleMania card
- NXT is bringing "real wrestling" to the surface. RAW and WM is "a bunch of morons that sit around creating wrestling. Just writers from Hollywood who don't know anything about the business. Just Vince Russo's in a different uniform"
- Everything about Nakamura vs Zayn (from entrances to handshake) was "beautiful wrestling". Made Bret stand and salute. Said the finish to Asuka vs Bayley was also beautiful
- The Diva's tag match on the WM pre show was "awesome". Everyone worked hard and got their spots in and he really enjoyed it
- Thought Sasha Banks should have won the title. It was her night and it was another bad booking decision
- Becky and Sasha Banks were great in the ring and were carrying the match. Constantly refers to Becky as "the Irish girl"
- "Charlotte had a lot of holes in her work and you can tell that she's still really green. She's NOT the world's champion. I love Ric Flair and I love Charlotte, she's a great girl but she is SO green and if you know wrestling you know she is not the best one out there. She's there because of her father"
- "Nattie is strictly there to groom [Charlotte] and teach her and give her great matches. Charlotte will eventually get there."
- "I like Shane, but the reality of it is that he's not a wrestler". Says his little punches were terrible
- Said he predicted the finish of the match easily
- Liked the Shaq cameo in the Battle Royal. Doesn't know anything about Baron Corbin, but didn't have a problem with the Battle Royal at all
- Regarding The Rock's segment: "For me it was just another example of dweebs sitting around a table writing wrestling". Called the whole segment "overly scriped bullcrap"
- "Truth is The Rock probably showed up and got a bigger paycheck than all the girls, all the midcard guys. You could probably stack up all the paychecks of all the girls and all the Cody Rhodes' in the back and it wouldn't come close to Shaq's pay or The Rock's and that's bullcrap. These are the guys and girls on the road 300 days per year, not The Rock"
- Says HHH's entrance was like some weird fantasy, including Steph in black spandex
- Wasn't offended by the main event, but nothing made him say "wow, I have to watch this again". Cites Shawn vs Taker as a match that made him do that
- Finish of the match was "phony bullcrap wrestling" and lacklustre. 5/10 for the match
- Says the 2 Japanese wrestlers (Nakamura and Asuka) had the best matches of the weekend and those 2 are so far ahead of everyone else in WWE. Says The Rock and Shaq should give their pay to Nakamura, Asuka, Zayn and Bayley
- "There was magic this weekend, but it wasn't at WrestleMania"

I'm sure if Nattie wrestled for the Women's title, Kidd and Cesaro fought for the tag titles, and they had a 20 minute tribute to Bret, then he would say it was one of the best ever.

The thing is, if anyone on here said the exact same stuff Bret said, everyone would be agreeing and saying, "oh absolutely true!" Yet, because Bret Hart says it, we have to find fault in everything and mock Bret.
A lot of the stuff Bret said wasn't wrong.

I mean Bret wasn't totally wrong.
Though it's odd that he made a big deal about not watching the show recently.

I just imagine him sitting at home with reading glasses on, drinking tea with Renee while reading about the sasquatch.

Ambrose vs Lesnar "Did what it was supposed to do?" I mean...if it was supposed to suck, then yeah, he's right. Was it supposed to only go a minute longer than the 10 diva tag? Was it supposed to have 2 minutes of Ambrose throwing chairs into the ring, only for Brock to attempt a German suplex and miss every single chair? Hmm.

He said blood would've added to the match, but he didn't believe Ambrose would beat Lesnar. He also says it's believable that F5 on a stack of chairs finishes off Dean.

Thanks for that. I agree with every single point there. Every last one. Well done, Bret.

They spent over 7 weeks building a match that only went a minute longer than the 10 Diva tag. It should have been given 20 minutes at least. I'm not saying I know more than Bret, but he's putting down matches that were clearly better than Lesnar vs Ambrose.

I thought it should've had double the time it got. The match was a disappointment and was far too short, but what we got wasn't bad. It was actually very good IMO, just far too short. I would put Charlotte/Becky/Sasha, Ladder match and AJ/Jericho above it, but I understand his complaints with regards to the ladder match and AJ/Jericho.

I didn't watch the NXT stuff, but he was right about everything else. Only thing I disagree with is that Reigns/HHH justified a 5/10.
