WWE Hall of Famer Bret Hart is regarded as one of the greatest pro-wrestlers to ever step foot inside the squared circle.He is known for his technicality in the ring and he is considered to be the benchmark when it comes to the quality of classic wrestling. It turns out that was not satisfied with fellow WWE Hall of Famer Goldberg and WCW trainer Sgt. Buddy Lee Parker. He believes that Parker didn’t put enough focus on safety in the ring while training stars like Goldberg.
Goldberg is criticized by Bret Hart
Goldberg has been often criticized for being a risky worker in the ring and pro-wrestling’s one of the main focus to keep the opponents safe. In the latest episode of UnSKripted with Dr. Chris Featherstone, WCW trainer Sgt. Buddy Lee Parker was asked about training Goldberg in WCW. The Sarge stated that it was good working with the former Universal Champion, who he felt was a genuine athlete.
According to Sgt. Buddy Lee Parker, some WCW stars were afraid to get into the ring with younger, inexperienced stars. Bret Hart told Sarge that he had to train WCW stars to protect their opponents in the ring. The Sarge further stated that The Hitman was upset with both him and Goldberg for not being safe in the ring:
“I had him (Goldberg), Big Show, Kevin Nash, and all of them at the same time. We had four rings, I was jumping ring to ring every day. People were scared of them because, you know, they’re green, you know, whatever. Actually, Bret Hart put me down for that, he said I had to put my emphasis on people protecting themselves. I was like, ‘Bret, you come from the Hart Foundation and you don’t know how to get your hand up? My gosh, he’s getting the biggest push ever and the biggest push since Hogan. If you don’t how to get your hand up when he kicks you, shame on you,'” said Sarge.
