Like The Rock, WWE Hall of Famer Bret Hart had real-life heat with Triple H in the early 1990s. On his Confessions with the Hitman Podcast, the former claimed that Triple H and Shawn Michaels wanted him out of WWE.

The Hitman has taken several shots at The King of Kings in the past few years. Earlier this year, Hart stated that he always thought that Triple H was an overrated wrestler. The Hall of Famer also claimed that the WWE Universe remembers Triple H only because his father-in-law is Vince McMahon:

"There’s always some guys that no matter what they do with them, you always wonder how they got there. I never thought Triple H ever had an idea, original idea, for anything. I I always thought he was overrated. The only reason people even know him or remember him today is because (of) daddy, daddy-in-law," he told The 81 Podcast.

Bret Hart made up with Vince McMahon after years of animosity following the Montreal Screwjob incident. Nonetheless, his relationship with Triple H does not seem to have improved much in the past few years.

In an interview with Arda Ocal a few years ago, Hart disclosed he and Triple H do not speak and only greet each other formally when they meet.
