*3:11* Bret referred to no one attempting to see if his eyes could track movements. Thank goodness Bret survived a stroke and so much more. He mentioned in his book, "My Real Life in the Cartoon World of Wrestling," that while he was in the ICU just after he had his stroke, he has "blurry memories" of his first wife Julie and his children around him and of his youngest son Blade tearfully saying, "You're the best dad that ever was!" It was very sad how his career ended yet his children could have lost their dad. Now Bret has grandchildren. He's a survivor and an inspiration.

He was forced to leave WWF by Bince McMahon. He didn’t go by choice. He even turned down WCW’s $2.8 million per year offer in October of 1996 to remain with WWF for $1.5 million. A year later in October of 1997 right before Bret signed with WCW he asked Vince for the last time to tell him that if he stays what his storylines will be. Vince told him you’ll lose to HBK at Survivor Series, lose to him again at the December PPV, lose to him again at Royal Rumble, then you’ll beat him on Raw next night for the championship, and then you’ll lose the championship at WrestleMania 14 to Austin. Bret saw 4 PPV losses in a row and understood By offering him such a crappy storyline Vince was forcing him out.

Goldberg most certainly did NOT end Bret's career. Bret screwed Bret. Had he taken a month or two off his career would have continued on. It was the repeated concussions over the next two weeks that ended his career. Bill Goldbert did NOT make Bret wrestle those matches. He got powerbombed and chokeslammed multiple times over the next couple of weeks. He admits in this interview that he had concussions in each of those matches. Thats 110% on him. I had a nasty concussion when I was in high school, and I had to take 3 days of rest at home, and then no sports or any serious physical activity for a week (and I certainly wouldn't have been cleared for anything like wrestling or football for at least a month). That was in the mid 80's. By the mid 90's they knew more about concussions and any doctor would have told Bret to take a minimum of a month off. He chose not to see a doctor sooner. He chose to wrestle those matches when he KNEW he had a concussion. Hell, after the 2nd concussion he still may have been able to come back, but he needed at least two months off at that point. And he kept wrestling and getting further concussions. Bret screwed Bret.

Only thing ridiculous is this comment. The kick looked fake yet hit with enough force to snap the muscle in his neck and give him a concussion so bad it ended his career 🤔 honestly take a second and listen to what you’re saying. Goldberg has a history of being clumsy and injuring people. He ended Brets career , why wouldn’t he be bitter when the last thing he said before they went to the ring was “don’t hurt me” . Everyone knew what he was like and Goldberg simply didn’t give a shit

@@Themaskplague You must be one of the dumbest people on the internet to beleive that he snapped a muscle in his neck and was that concussed it ended his career of that kick. I mean have you actually seen the video?!?! The guy was able to get up and walk out of there appearing to be fine. You cant "Snap a muscle" in your neck and walk it off. The guy would streight up not be able to move. It also happens to be an injury thats hard to argue with because its difficult to prove. I could say I had neck or back pain and there would be no way to tell if I was lying or not even by a doctors examination/scan. Always a go to excuse from people that and I dont beleive it for a second here. Your obviously a big fan of bret and he cant do anything wrong in your mind but really look at the kick and how he was after it and tell me that he had a life changing injury that took his career away. Come off it and open your damn eyes.

Have you been elbowed in the face by a steroid fueled 270 lbs man before? And wait, how can he have CTE if he's making up this Goldberg story? He's far from the only one to talk about how dangerous Goldberg was early in his career. Hell, he was dangerous late in his career too. Ask Taker about that one. Bret only had his career cut short by five to ten years because of Goldberg. That's at least ten million dollars in earnings he missed out on. He has every right to be bitter.

The irony being almost all of Goldbergs appeal was how real and violent his moves looked. At the time I was a teenage mark eating it up. Seriously compare Goldbergs spear in his prime to anyone else's like edge and it doesn't even look like the same move. Goldberg folded dudes up in the most brutal fashion and that's the main he reason he got so over. I'm glad we are starting to know better now but if you think Bret got it bad watch Goldbergs matches with jobbers. He nearly killed them and the only benefit they had was it was almost always short squash matches. Imagine how badly he messed up their lives to get over and how we'll never hear their story. Brets right as usual.

Concussions are scary. I sustained atleast 3 from playing football in highschool. The main thing that i remember is the instant ringing in my ears and the light of any kind become blinding. I prided myself on playing every play my team needed me so I never got checked out after any of them. In retrospect knowing what we know now about the seriousness of CTE and what it can lead too, I wish I had gone to the hospital. Tension headaches, short term memory loss and an inability to focus on tasks at hand are just some of the adverse side effects I have to this day over 20 years later.

You can see all three instances bret talks about. I know he says the kick was the injury but I think it was the accumulation of all three. However, if bret knew goldberg was green why do the figure four around the post and the kick spot anyway? The elbow, I mean that's just pure recklessness. But the other two could've been prevented by just not doing them. Not blaming bret for it, just a what if, I suppose.

I’m glad he’s living his best life and making money. Athletes get concussions. It sucks. I’m no expert and certainly I’m not Bret. That said a wrestler retiring months, and hardcore matches after a kick. Doesn’t exactly scream the kick was the culprit. Being “the best there ever was” for a wrestler with 0 charisma in a promotion that is pushing characters over talent, would be a better reason to retire, in my opinion. It is unfortunate that his concussion didn’t get him over like the screw job, and the stroke finished it.

He got concussed but recalls what he said right before going to the ring? I’ve been concussed numerous times. One time in a game I got hit so hard I don’t remember playing in the game at all.

But blaming one shot that didn’t even knock you out for a stroke you had way later after you’ve had brain scans looking for damage. Cmon man.
