Other News: Bret Hart interview part 3 - Interesting back-story on why Hart recorded events from his wrestling career Jan 14, 2009 - 1:39:14 PM
As detailed in part 1 of the Bret Hart interview recap, Hart is content going home and "being normal" outside of the public limelight to work on some novel ideas and attend film school in California this summer.
He said everything he needed to say about the wrestling business in his autobiography, which he says was the product of keeping a verbal diary on his now-famous micro cassette tapes for 16 years to record everything he saw and heard while in the wrestling business.
Hart says the reason why he started doing that when he first joined WWE in 1984 was because he didn't think his WWE career would last much longer than a brief run as a prelim wrestler, and he wanted to put down his thoughts and feelings while it lasted.
"When I first joined WWE, I didn't think I would be there very long," said Hart on the Ringside Live radio show. "Didn't think I'd be there more than four, five months."
Hart says having a record of the information from each time period of his career made it easier to provide accurate details for his book. He says he didn't have to wonder who was at the dinner table or what Andre the Giant said after a show that otherwise would be blocked from his personal memory.
"Have it on tape," he said. "I can assure you that everything in my book is pretty much accurate down to the last detail."
