What happened at Survivor Series during the “Bret Hart” incident?
This one is also a mystery, but most insiders agree that Shawn did in fact know about the screwjob being played on Bret Hart. Basically, Shawn, Vince and some higher WWF officials met and decided that they would end the match in Michaels’ favor despite the fact that Bret was told a different story. Shawn put Hart in the sharpshooter, Vince ordered the bell rung even though Hart never submitted, Shawn walked off as the new champion, Bret punched Vince and went to WCW a few weeks later and the rest is history.
