In a recent interview with the Sam Roberts Wrestling Podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Bret “The Hitman” Hart revealed that he offered to work backstage for the WWE several years ago, but that the schedule was the main issue when it came to the talks.

“I hesitated on that for a long time; it was about four years ago I went up to them and threw the ball at them, made that pitch that I would give them ideas and help with the writing of the shows, creation of the matches and how storylines would go and so forth.

I think I would be really good for them, but I sort of made the offer, but the way it was thrown back at me was about the schedule; I was letting them know that I didn’t want to be on the road everyday but that I could fly in for TV, and I think I left with letting them know that I can fly in for TV and never heard from them. Vince and Triple H thanked me for the offer and we left it at that.”
