He said that to a girl? That's pretty weird especially if she was young and genuinely interested in wrestling. We're only laughing at the "Archie Bunker" nature of Bret, but it's really uncool to answer a young woman's question like that. Who would have thought all those years ago that Shawn Michaels would be the one to end up with all the class? Shawn ends up with class while Bret wants all the ass! It's the reverse attitude era lol. I am a girl (hunner), and don't necessarily congratulate him for what he said, but I am entertained by the thought of him saying it like it's a common fact. Haha. That's the way I look at it. I think it's funny in a "Seriously, Bret?" kind of way, but it couldn't have been fun for the girl who wanted a serious answer.

That girl needs to watch NXT then. Bailey and Sasha Banks got signed without any family members pushing for them.
Both are thoroughly cute and pretty women but certainly not in the "model" bracket they usually go for so there is some hope for normal women these days. Hell, Summer Rae is getting in one of their movies and look at her nose.

I was not criticising her nose, just highlighting that in a company such as WWE with their history of body shaming women, the fact Summer Rae is getting strong support shows that they maybe, just maybe, are being a bit less judgemental on the women's appearance now. Maybe.

Maybe. I guess we'll agree to disagree. I think your heart is in the right place. However, you've been "body shaming" in your last two posts, but somehow only think it's bad when WWE does it. The scary part s you don't seem to notice it at all.

Not for nothing Bret, but I'm sure there was a time when she raised quite a few tents!

That's a pretty gross, sexist, disrespectful thing to say about women's wrestling and I'm pretty bummed out that so many of you are congratulating him for saying it. I think most of us were just really entertained that he'd said something so ridiculous.

Bret Hart married a black woman? huh?
What happened to his wife...in Italy?
Remember he used to always give interviews and refer to his wife (pause) in Italy.

I never said that and all my messages were on topic about looks and appearance in WWE for female wrestlers. I commented on Summer Rae, Bailey and Sasha Banks all being pretty women who don't necessarily fit the WWE's stereotypical model playbook and how the young woman who questioned Bret should take inspiration from that and I was told I'd die alone. I am glad I signed up to this forum....

Fair enough. Duly noted. Agree to disagree with all involved.
I note Bret waited until Mae Young had passed before dropping this Moolah insult. She'd have slapped him back to the screw job if she'd heard something like that.
