Bret Hart Signs short term contract with WWE

**littlebilly1** · 17th December 2009

According to a WWE source who is close to the situation, Bret Hart has signed a short-term talent contract with WWE. Dave Meltzer is reporting that contract runs from January 1st to April 10th 2010. This means Hart could very well end up being the RAW guest host on January 4th.

When asked about the contract, Bret Hart declined to comment since he doesn't want to "lie about anything." According to Meltzer, Hart wanted to keep the signing a surprise but WWE all but confirmed he was coming back with the segment on RAW this week.

Apparently, Hart had been in talks with WWE for several months now. Meltzer is also reporting that Hart will possibly wrestle one more match and has also agreed to do a storyline based on the Montreal Screwjob. For years, Hart had been strongly against doing any type of storyline in WWE based on Montreal.

seen the episode last monday was great to see him back and I wondered just how they were going to screw him over again.

Needless to say I kept waiting for the turn and thought it would have been a stone cold moment between him and mcmahon but it was the reverse.

Bret looked very tired and stiff when he moved. Guess that stroke has had a huge impact still to this day.

I am not sure based on what I saw that a wrestling match is the way to go for him I always saw him back as a manger of show or wrestler if he ever did think about coming back.

What did you all think re raw on monday there?

I havent watched WWE in over a year but when I heard that Bret was back I made the effort.

It was good to see him back... just wait for his appearance in Canada.

It is no way ring ready but I dont think he has to be. I can see this building up to a match with Vince where another old star will join the fight (Stone Cold may be)...

Lets wait and see. Might even make a suprise entryin the Rumble....
