Here is a couple small excerpts from Bret Hart’s Book “My Life in the Cartoon World of Professional Wrestling”.

Bret on Working with Owen:

“I arrived home on September 3 for five days rest before heading over to Europe again. I had one important thing to do. I saw Owen enough on the road that I rarely visited him at home, but this time I drove over to his house. We both loved our coffee, so I’d brought him a cappuccino machine, which I left on his front steps along with a note.

It has truly been a pleasure working with you and I’m sure going to miss all the fun and high energy you brought with you to each and every match you had. I always knew you were a great and gifted worker and I’ve very proud of you. I’m happy to have helped in any way to bring your talent to the forefront were it always belonged. Owen, you’re all pro! Good luck in the future, call one me when you need me, and come home in on piece. Love, Bret.”

Bret on Ribbing Owen:

“Owen and Yoko lost the belts to a young cowboy team called The Smoking Gunns. Owen was now the proud father of a brand-new baby girl, Athena. For all those times he’d pulled pranks on me, I’d told everyone, straight faced, that he named her after Stu! It was kind of funny how mad he got when everyone kept congratulating him on the birth of his daughter Stuella. I enjoyed finally paying him back.
