  • Stills from last nights match between Bret Hart and Goldberg.

  • Kevin Nash came out and said one of the codes the wrestlers live by is the boys never screw one of the boys. He said the boys and office are separate entities. He said the boys come out night after night and give their bodies. They cover for themselves and the office is all about the almighty dollars. He said the office doesn't care about them. They have no benefits and the office doesn't pay their social security. He said if the office can find a way to screw the boys to make a dollar the boys are going to get screwed. He said he doesn't give a damn about Goldberg. He said the boys were all about surviving and the office will take until there’s nothing left and they will throw them to the curb. He said Bret screwed one of the boys for personal gain.

He told them to call him when they want a real fighter and told everyone to grab their son and kiss them, don't hit them and tell them how much you love them. He said he quits, and that's it. Goldberg approached him on the ramp and his son told him he loves him. Goldberg said he stayed up all night trying to make sense of this crap. He looked up to Piper until last night. He said he was faced with a decision and he made the wrong decision. He says Piper sold out and Goldberg would never do that. Piper wished him all the best and asked him not to be a phony either. Bret came out and said there was no point blaming anyone as he knew more than anyone what its like to get screwed by the office. He said as far as he is concerned the title is vacant and he is gonna go tell the office to stick the belt up their ass. Goldberg said eveyone makes mistakes and he understands as Piper picked his son up and left. Bret went into the Powers office and called Russo a piece of sh**. Russo says he tried to make up for his past screwing and Bret told him what to do with the title but finally the censors edited out some language.
