The 2019 WWE Hall of Fame Induction ceremony got a little bit wild tonight in Brooklyn, NY at Barclays Center as some unexpected action took place in the ring when they were inducting Bret Hart’s tag team ‘The Hart Foundation’ with recently deceased partner Jim ‘The Anvil’ Neidhart.
A fan with a rasta hat one was seen attacking Bret Hart pushing him from the podium as he was speaking. WWE cut the incident as the screen went black as Hart stood alongside Natalya, Neidhart’s daughter and an active WWE superstar. See some fan shot footage from the incident below. Stay tuned for updates.
TMZ.com reported that even Ronda Rousey’s husband, Travis Browne, joined in as he leaped in to the ring to help Hart as soon as the fan made his way into the ring attacking him.
Hart fortunately was unharmed by the attack, and seamlessly launched back into his story after the short delay from the fan attack. With this induction as a member of the Hart Foundation, Hart is one of only four wrestlers — along with Shawn Michaels, Ric Flair and Booker T — to become a two-time WWE Hall of Famer. Hart was previously inducted individually in 2006. The fan who attacked Hart was removed from the building as Hart finished out his speech.
This is probably the best angle of the incident involving a fan (and I use that term loosely) attacking Bret Hart. Disgusting. This guy deserved everything he got in the aftermath. Glad to hear Bret was OK and able to resume his speech. #WWEHOFhttps://t.co/6j1Rf8pkMb pic.twitter.com/pXwDdcIo6s
