Mr. Hart what was was your father's relationship with Bruiser Brody? Did Gary like Brody? Also did your father ever make any comments on Brody's death? Did he hate Jose Gonzales for what happened?
Also what did your father think of Mike Graham? Surely they must have met at some point, if not then never mind. Did your father have an opinion of Graham?

Please call me jason.dad and brody were the best of friends and brody's death affected dad deeply.it saddened him and it also angered him because of the way it went down.he very rarely would talk about what happened for that same reason,yes he hated jose,but he never talked about him.it still bothers me to this day some 24 years later.
as far as mike graham goes dad wrestled him alot in florida during his run thier in '74 and liked mike.

Thank you for responding Jason. Was there ever a wrestler whom your father did not care for? Was there someone in wrestling whom had dis-respected your father?
On the other hand, was there anyone whom your father would not work for? Certain promoters or territories? Thank you for your time Jason.

pretty much if dad knew he could draw money with you he would work with you,like Raven said top guys have little quirks that makes them different..i guess i just quoted the Raven so your not going to be best friends with everybody but if you can draw with each other you over look a lot of stuff.and by the way dad liked Raven..
about the only promoter dad would not work for was one that didn't want to pay the guys.

Always heard that Gary Hart never got along too well with Jerry Jarrett, because of some differences in Atlanta in late '73, when Jarrett was booking there.

Jason was did your father think of Jim Herd?
We all know the stories of how everyone hated him for being someone who did not deserve to even watch a match much less run a wrestling company.
So how did Gary view Jim Herd?

And keep in mind, Jerry Jarrett didn't have a reputation for paying well-it's all about money in any business.

well said sikki nikk....the best way i can answer the herd question is that dad considered herd to be the most incompetent person that has ever been put in charge of anything..and you are right when you say that guy should never have been allowed to even watch wrestling let alone decide how it should be presented..ask Ricy Flair he will tell you..

Your pretty cool Jason. So i have to ask....did you ever consider getting into the business? Perhaps you have already have, if you did sorry.
Would you try to get in the business now? as what? Wrestler? Booker? Referee? Sheet-Writer?

Just ordered your Dads DVD. I look forward to seeing him on GB. Also Jason, did your dad have any working relationships with the Harts(of the Calgary variety of course)?

Mr. Hart also did not care for The Sting, as he liked to call him. If you haven't read Mr. Harts book, I can't say enough about it. You're doing yourself a disservice my not trying to find it. He says basically Sting tried to treat everyone like his personal job squad, even Mr. Hart. Also said Sting would always make fun of mentally challenged/handicapped people.

The strange thing about it was that i was a big sting fan,and normaly if i took a liking to a wrestler they normaly got over pretty big..i know that dad realized that..and i know for sure that dad saw a lot in sting and was very impressed with him.,that explains the frustration,i never saw anyone frustrate the old man as much as he did.
