Bruce Prichard Reveals Who Was Originally Scheduled To Have Owen Hart's Role For Bret Hart Feud

The 1993 Survivor Series was the topic of conversation on a recent episode of the Something To Wrestle podcast. Former WWE producer Bruce Prichard revealed plans that were scrapped for the match between the Hart Family and Shawn Michaels and his knights.

Bret Hart entered into a feud against his brother Owen after the event. Prichard said the original idea was for Bret to feud with Bruce Hart, but Bret personally requested to have the angle changed to a rivalry with Owen.

"In addition to that, so much of this genesis of the whole Hart Family being together was Bruce Hart had written a letter to Vince about an angle between him and Bret. The angle was pretty good, and it pretty much runs in line with what we did with Owen Hart. Bret Hart came up to us that he agreed with us, he liked the angle idea but he didn't want to do the angle with Bruce Hart he wanted to do the angle with Owen Hart," Prichard said. "We all agreed because one of Vince McMahon's dilemma was that he wasn't sure about bringing Bruce Hart in and it was Bret Hart was the one who brought Owen Hart up and we were all excited, which is when we started to bring up the whole Bret Hart and Owen Hart angle."
