Owen in the WWE Hall of
Fame:
I sure hope [Owen goes in]. I
think the fans deserve it because they loved Owen. I know Martha [Hart] and her
family have their reasons, but the ones who suffer in all of this are the fans.
Regardless of Martha's animosity for the WWE ... With WWE putting Owen in the
Hall of Fame, I don't think they're trying to disrespect Martha. I think that
they're trying to do the right thing. Martha has her feelings and - like all of
us - we're heartbroken when we lost Owen. We all did lose Owen. Not just one
person or one family. We all lost Owen. I know it means a lot to the Owen Hart
fans ... I know Martha has her reasons [but] I really don't know what the holdup
is ... I don't think it's tit-for-tat, I believe it's a lot more complex than
that ... It has to be a melting on both sides. For a long time, I thought it was
one side holding back and not the other, but I think that both sides need to
work it out and do it for Owen's fans. But I understand Martha's position on it.
There are things that need to be addressed before she's ready to give it her
blessing.
On The
Bret-Davey IC Match Main-Eventing SummerSlam:
I think a lot
of people were mad, not at all Vince McMahon or the people promoting the show. I
thinks some of the wrestlers were mad that the Intercontinental belt was being
showcased as the main event. I will go to my grave saying that ... the main
event was Davey and Bret. That's why they put them as the main event. And part
of the reason they broke the record ... of selling over 80,000 seats in less
than 11 hours was Davey and Bret ... I think if you did a poll or a survey
[asking] who are your favorites in 1992 at that time, it's not Ric Flair, it
wasn't Curt Hennig, it wasn't The Ultimate Warrior, it wasn't the Legion of Doom
... it was perfectly right to have Bret and Davey as the main event for that
show. Even though it wasn't a world championship match.
On
Wrestling Dominating Her Life:
It's
overwhelming when I'm not in wrestling. I'm a part of it in pretty much every
exponent you could think. I'm a daughter of it, a sister, a wife, a mother, and
I do a little bit of it myself. I didn't wrestle [but] I ... did the managing
with Davey and Owen ... I pretty well covered every aspect of it ... I was
really involved in it, and now I'm overwhelmed by what is the real world for
other people. Sometimes I feel like I ... can't do anything outside of
wrestling. I struggle with what is considered the normal life, trying to work a
9-to-5 job, work in an office, I just feel like I'm so far out of my
element.
