Bret Hart Calls Kliq "Cancer": Slams Shawn Michaels, Kevin Nash & Scott Hall

Bret Hart has never been one to hold back what he's feeling. In the early 90's he was open about Shawn Michaels being nasty in the locker room, and recently, he said that Hulk Hogan shouldn't return to the WWE. His latest target comes in the form of wrestling's Kliq. Hart went off on them when asked about the latest Kliq DVD and according to the Hall of Famer and former World Champion, the group was a "cancer." In the interview Hart went after Michaels, Kevin Nash and Scott Hall specifically. When it came to the part about Michaels though, he said the Heartbreak Kid has been apologetic about what went down earlier in their career.

 (Thankfully he was absolved from the Hitman's wrath.)

"They were literally a cancer in the dressing room, all of them. I don't doubt that Shawn Michaels is sorry for a lot of that kind of behavior," Hart said. "Kevin Nash was a great wrestler and a good guy, but I don't think he could be that proud of that association. It was a cancerous environment in the dressing room with those guys and they certainly did more negative than positive to the business. Scott Hall, all you have to do is just look at him."

Out of the three wrestlers Hart went after he hit Hall hardest. He said Hall was a self-destructive individual who took his angst out on everybody else. Hart said if you were around him long enough, his unhappiness would spread to you.

"He's a train-wreck with his own life and he was a malcontent, or a guy that when you were close to him long enough you start to feel the same way he did; you just felt so self-destructive and unhappy with your life and your job and everything. He was a guy that was infectious with his bad, bad sort of moods and unhappiness in his own life that would spread to all the other wrestlers."

In vintage Bret fashion, he finished up his statement on the Kliq by saying he was a good guy. The Canadian in him kept him friendly.

"And you know, I'm glad I'm not remembered for that kind of stuff. I'm remembered – I think if you talk to different wrestlers from that era, the Savio Vegas and those kinds of wrestlers that were on my cards – they're all pretty proud of how I conducted myself, how I related to them and how I may have been the top guy but I didn't act like a superstar; not to my friends and not to my peers," Hart continued.
