Two-time WWE Hall of Famer Bret Hart recently released the 29th episode of Confessions Of The Hitman. The Hitman answers the questions from the fans. The show is available is Bret Hart’s website. On this episode Hart discussed in great detail that how he developed his signature move, The Sharpshooter.

While discussing the signature move, Hart acknowledged the fact that he learned about The Scorpion Deathlock in Japan. WWE CEO and Chairman had asked him around the same time to come up with a new signature move. The Scorpion Deathlock was mentioned in the discussion, and McMahon asked whether Hart could pull off the move. Hart simply hoped that someone on the WWE roster could teach him.

After searching for long, he found a teacher in Konnan. Hart still remembers that Konnan taught him the move in a shower. Konnan was a Mexican wrestler who worked at WCW. He learnt the move and now says, “Rest is history.” It was Hart himself who renamed the move to The Sharpshooter. Hart even acknowledged the rumor of his father teaching him the move when he was a kid as funny.

Rumors about Hart

Bret “The Hitman” Heart

Another interesting question that the fans asked Hart was to reveal the most ludicrous rumor that he had heard about himself. The Hitman was quick to point out that it was relationship with Sunny. Hart confessed that he wished to have a relationship with her, but it never actually happened.

Hart pointed out that he was on good terms with not only Sunny, but all the women working for WWE then. That’s why he never knew from where these rumors were coming from.
