Hart recently spoke with Vezzy Parmesan of the Hot 106 "Rise and Grind
Morning Show" in Providence, Rhode Island about the current WWE product
and what he thinks the problem is. Here are some highlights:
On the current talent roster: "I think the wrestlers that out there
today are excellent. Some are as good as they've every been. I don't
have any issues with the wrestlers of today. But, I will say that they
all look cookie-cutter and look the same. I really wish they would just
get a King Kong Bundy here and there to change it up."
On
where the problem lies: "I think the problem isn't the wrestlers, it's
the office. It's the directors of the wrestlers. They're not doing a
good enough job - I don't think they understand the talent they have.
Sometimes I can pull my hair out watching
the TV going, 'Geez, they have so much great talent, but the shows are
the same every week. I'm so sick of all the characters they got.'"
On WWE not being proactive: "Some of them (wrestlers) are great, but
the wrestling industry, which is basically WWE, is waiting for the next
guy to pull the sword out of the stone...They're waiting for the next
big Superstar. I don't know who he is, but he's out there. He might be
some guy at a wrestling school right now hoping he's going to make it.
Somebody's got to come along. Somebody always does. It could be another
five years. Wrestling needs a new star; somebody with a new gimmick."
