Bret didnt care at all. he was just there doing nothing and you can tell he was so bored and uncomfortable and for some strange reason he was smiling a lot, it was so for some strange reason.
As bad as Ric is at least he is trying to be a heel and once in a while he yells at the crowd and supports Charlotte but Nattie was all alone last night.
Bret should have never been at Payback in the first place IMO.

Re: bret didnt give a damn.

He didn't really want to be there and given that finish, can you blame him?

I couldn't believe they were really rehashing a spot from 19 years ago just because he was there, just have Charlotte beat her for christ sake.

Re: bret didnt give a damn.

It did seem more about getting to the Sharpshooter spot rather than the two women having a big title match TBH. Bret did say he was only there to support Natty, so he was honest about it beforehand.

Oh and this fucking scewjob shit :punkout

MOVE THE FUCK ONE. Leave it as it is/was.

Yeah, I don't get why they're still obsessed with the screwjob; beating a dead horse at this point. The well has run dry. It was a scandalous and historic moment but it's 2016 now.

He had no enthusiasm at all, from the entrance all the way through until the end of the match. The finish was garbage, too. He did make it clear that he was only there for Nattie's sake anyway.

Re: bret didnt give a damn.

You know who would've liked to have been out there?

Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart.

You know, Nattie's actual father? I could've sworn I recently heard JBL refer to her as "Nattie Hart".

I mean, yeah, she's tied in to the Hart family, for sure, but they could at least properly acknowledge HOW she's tied in.

Re: bret didnt give a damn.

The bigger question is why wasn't Jim there instead. Yeah, he's a little off his game lately but I'm sure he could pull it together for 15 minutes. Fro his own daughter for crying out loud.
Because lets face it, Jim was never ever a big player never he was mainstream, nobody cares for him and many of today´s kids dont even know him.

Yeah, forgot he was even there for a while. Ric is on-screen with Charlotte every time while Bret only appears once for a Montreal screw job rehash. Ric probably gets in a few drinks before the show while Bret is still wobbly from surgery. Can't really compare the two in terms of enthusiasm.

Did anybody expect anything less out of Mr. Bitter? I'm shocked he even agreed to do it in the first place.

Re: bret didnt give a damn.

He admitted that he didn't want to be there but I don't think he intentionally sandbagged his appearance. Bret was just there to support Natty and I don't think he appreciated the obnoxious "we want Sasha" chants shortly into the match. Not to mention he just had prostate cancer surgery a couple of months ago. I was just happy to see him at all.

Re: bret didnt give a damn.

The screwjob made no sense because Nattie wasn't champ heading into it and they had no reason to forcibly remove her from the picture.

She's still going to be there...and lil Naitch is now compromised.. WTF?

I think WWE's logic is somewhere along these lines:

- Ratings lowest since 1997
- Entering a new era
- Need a "screwjob" before Raw to signify they are heading into a "new era".

Honestly, I think they believe history will repeat itself and WWE will triple in popularity if they just rehash things from the past.

Bret was looking like Stu and Helen out there

Re: bret didnt give a damn.

Bret is also still recovering from Prostate Cancer too TBH, in addition to his already limited mobility, i was surprised he did anything physical TBH. I guess it was expected with Flair there, that seemed to be the main point of it all. He was there for Nattie and that was that.

WWE's fault for the way they booked the whole thing really.

Re: bret didnt give a damn.

He does one appearance like every two years. Lame that for 15 minutes he can't just act like he's having a good time.

He really has turned into a grumpy old man. Still one of the best wrestlers of all time - but also one of the best complainers/unpleasant to work with person as well.

Yeah, when he was walking to the ring with Natalya I actually thought I saw him sigh! He looked bored as fuck, even when Natalya attempted or even locked in the sharpshooter not even a smile. Natalya shoulda brought her Dad instead.
