Get Bret Hart on the Canadian Walk of Fame


Get Bret Hart on the Canadian Walk of Fame
The Issue
For over two decades Bret "the Hitman" Hart has entertained fans around the world en route to becoming one of Canada's most recognizable icons. Whether he was riling up wrestling audiences with his overtly patriotic tirades, or putting on a technical wrestling master class, you’ll be hard pressed to find a Canadian, or wrestling fan alike, who hasn’t heard of “the Excellence of Execution".
Since his retirement from active competition in 2000, Hart has become a bestselling author, an ambassador for the March of Dimes Stroke Recovery Canada program, and trainer for the next generation of Canadian wrestling Superstars. His dedication to his craft has made him one of the most dedicated and respected pro wrestlers of all time. Having already been inducted to numerous Hall of Fames all across North America, it behoves the Canadian Walk of Fame to finally induct one of Canada’s greatest athletes: The best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be Bret “the Hitman” Hart.
