Bret Hart was a guest on the latest episode of “The Ross Report”, Jim Ross’ podcast, and among discussion of other topics Bret confirmed the WWE DVD being in the works. Both he and JR shared that WWE has not yet interviewed either of them for the documentary, however Bret suggested that other family members were about to be interviewed. It was reiterated again that Martha Hart are her children are in no way attached to the project and are not happy about it, while most others in the family are supportive. Bret believes Martha to be on the “wrong track” with her approach to the situation and has the opinion that she wishes to “erase everything he did in wrestling” in a “childish” and “selfish” manner. Responding to Martha’s recent public statement to WrestlingDVDNews.com, in which she implored WWE to “just let [Owen] rest in peace”, Bret said that there’s a lot of people that miss him and would love to remember him fondly with a DVD and the stories it could tell. “I think it’s important to remember what Owen accomplished in wrestling and I disagree with her position about Owen. There are so many happy memories tied in with Owen and I wish his kids could hear the stories”, he stated on the podcast.

Originally Posted by PWI We noted before that Samoa Joe has been added to this month's WWE NXT live events in Columbus, Ohio and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. WWE also has Ric Flair booked for those shows but we don't know what he will be doing.

TNA officials are hoping that Jeff Hardy will return from a broken leg in August. We noted in early May that there was talk of Hardy being back in the ring in two months but nobody wanted to rush the return.

Originally Posted by PWI As Dave Scherer noted earlier this morning, Tyrus (the former Brodus Clay) was pulled from the forthcoming Global Force Wrestling events later this month after having been advertised for several weeks after being informed by TNA he was not allowed to do the dates. GFW is operated by TNA minority owner Jeff Jarrett, who publicly split from the company several years back. Obviously, there is some bad blood remaining there. According to a TNA source, Tyrus could not make the dates as TNA contracts prevent their talents from working for companies with TV deals. The mindset within TNA is that since GFW announced they would be taping TV, that put the promotion out of bounds when it came to using TNA talent. Ring of Honor is in a similar situation with Moose but is allowing him to work the GFW house shows, but not the TV tapings. Tyrus, who was being billed by GFW under his real name George T. Murdoch, was not scheduled for the GFW TV tapings.

"It started out as just a little character, then it kind of evolved from that. Then I'm like 'If I'm not going to be this Dare Wolf character, let me make this Bunny really f-cking cool. Me and Adam Rose sat down and wrote out stories to make this bunny and evil bunny, because he wanted to be a heel so bad. We wanted to do like the Donnie Darko thing. We had an awesome mask made by the people who do The Walking Dead makeup, the same people who make Kane's masks. We had things filmed, and all of these ideas to turn this bunny into an evil, sadistic character. Adam Rose was going to be like a Marilyn Manson character. Everything got shot down. Each time I'd come up with something or Adam would come up with something, it'd get shot down. An idea that I thought was great and everyone thought as It's more frustration, it gets disheartening. It makes you lose passion for what you're doing." "They were just doing it week-to-week. I think they wanted it to end up being someone who was returning. Someone like Kurt Angle or Jeff Hardy, somebody cool like that. Anyone else on the roster, it wouldn't have been cool. It wouldn't have been a shock. I came up with an idea for the bunny to become really hardcore, he has dried blood all over him, sitting backstage grumpy smoking cigars. It's like when people hit their all-time low. The bunny should be going through ladders, tables, and coming close to winning championships, but doesn't because he's too f-cked up. Then maybe the bunny gets knocked out backstage, and a ref shows up and it's Vince. That's the only shock factor it could be, if it's someone on the roster. Then Vince wakes up and just goes 'I don't know what happened. I put the suit on and I just blacked out.' Everyone loved the idea, it just never came to fruition."
