Bischoff’s Claim About Bret Hart’s WWE Return True?

- You may remember a few weeks back, Eric Bischoff said on Facebook that he heard Bret Hart had a Lloyds of London insurance policy that was going to affect what he could do in his match at WrestleMania 26.

According to one person in WWE creative, this story is true. WWE apparently found out about the policy right before Bret appeared on January 4th. This news had everyone from Stephanie McMahon on down to other officials worried.

The plan was to do Bret Hart vs. Vince McMahon in a singles match from the start but they started to tease a tag match with Batista and John Cena for a few weeks. It’s possible they started to tease the tag match because of the Lloyd’s policy and a few weeks later they “bought out the problem”, as Bischoff said, or made some kind of agreement with Lloyd’s and then went back to the original plan of Vince vs. Bret in a singles match.

    im sorry but this is a pointless article and story. who really cares. and screw bischoff on this one its not a big deal. let it go. tna will never beat wwe in ratings. tna might have better creative it might not but its not going to beat wwe. not unless they make some bigger changes like venue being one.

    its very relevant actually truskill. if lyolds of london decided to not let the match happen and wwe went ahead with it bret would be massively sued. he got thousands out of them years ago for claiming permanent disability due to wrestling.

    Bret talks about his Lloyds of London insurance policy in his book and about how long it took them to pay out, WWE must have known about it
