"We're never going to get along" - Eric Bischoff on his relationship with WWE icon

WWE Hall of Famer Eric Bischoff has opened up about his relationship with Bret Hart and how it may never be mended.

Eric Bischoff and Bret Hart were a part of WCW in the 90s, and the two have not seen eye-to-eye, with the latter alleging that Bischoff killed his career after he joined the promotion.

On the "After 83 Weeks with Christy Olson" podcast, the former RAW GM discussed his relationship with Hart. Bischoff wished that the two could "break bread" and call a truce on their real-life rivalry.

"I respect Bret. We're never going to get along, we're never going to sit down and break bread - unfortunately. I would. I have nothing against Bret. I like Bret. There's things that Bret says and does that I wish he wouldn't say and do, but that's Bret," said Eric Bischoff.

Bret Hart on Eric Bischoff

Hart has been very critical of Bischoff, who was the head of WCW in the 90s. He has called the latter a "maggot" in the past and stated that the Hall of Famer had "zero ideas for wrestling".

"Eric Bischoff is an idiot. Total, complete idiot. Maybe the single stupidest idiot that ever got into wrestling. I could sit here for too long and talk about all the stupid things... a guy who never came through on anything he said," said Bret Hart. (H/T Wrestling News Plus)

Bischoff has brushed off Bret Hart's criticisms, calling him a "negative" person who can't have a conversation without burying, criticizing or blaming someone.
