“You know, it’s always amazed me is that, you know, I’ve never been forgotten at all and people still remember me and, you know, compare me. I think in a lot of ways for you, I look back on my career. It’s other wrestlers that have faded like Ultimate Warrior and Hulk Hogan and stuff they’ve faded more from, from people’s minds. Whereas I still stand out people still remember my performances in my matches,” he said.

Many believe that Hart’s comments may have come because of the creative difference The Hitman had with Hogan. Some wrestling fans believe that Vince McMahon had wanted Hogan to be the face of the company more than any other wrestler and that affected people like Hart.
