He recently talked about Vince McMahon's Lawsuit while talking to Slate, “I’m going to speak my truth. I’m not worried about Vince’s feelings. He’s never cared about mine. I don’t have any problem with everybody kicking his head around the parking lot. I’m OK with the truth coming out.”

While talking about more such cases Bret expressed, “I don’t think this is the only incident of this kind of predatory behavior, I think you’ll find that it’s everywhere in the WWE.”

The Hitman Hart further expressed he always respected Vince McMahon even after what happened between them. He considered him a father figure. 

But after learning about the things Vince McMahon has done, he lost his respect for him and what he did for the industry, and he has zero respect for McMahon now.

Hart even compared Vince McMahon with high-profile criminals like Jeffrey Dahmer, Harvey Weinstein, and even Jeffrey Epstein.

“It’s like Jeffrey Dahmer, Harvey Weinstein, or Jeffrey Epstein: Vince will be a joke, “He’ll be used for humor, and you’ll shake your head at the shock value of some joke about, ‘What did Vince McMahon do?’ He’ll always be associated with this story, especially as it gets bigger and bigger and bigger,” Hitman Expressed.
