On a recent edition of his “Tuesday with The Taskmaster” podcast, former WCW booker Kevin Sullivan expressed his doubt over the truth about the infamous Montreal Screwjob between Shawn Michaels and Bret Hart at WWE Survivor Series 1997.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On the Montreal Screwjob: “I have my doubts about Bret’s screwjob. The documentary people, they [gave them] free access everywhere … except when Bret came back from the ring and went in to see Vince. Wouldn’t they [have] pushed in the camera just to get that?”
On how WWE never should’ve let the company be put in that position: “I go back and forth with that, but I also say to myself, they never should’ve got in that position. They knew he was leaving and here’s the thing that I question about this: Vince helped him get that contract with Turner.”
The Montreal Screwjob was featured in the documentary, “Wrestling With Shadows.” The event was also highlighted in the first season of “Dark Side of the Ring.”
