OWEN HART MAY 7, 1966 - MAY 23, 1999
EDITORIAL COLUMN WRITTEN: MAY 25, 1999
The Wrestling world tragically lost a bright shining star on May 23. Owen Hart died from injuries he sustained from a fall from the ceiling at the Kemper Arena in Kansas City when he was preparing to make a grand entrance at the "Over the Edge" Pay-per-view.
His death is tragic for the wrestling world, his fellow wrestlers, for the fans of wrestling, but most tragically for his family. My sincerest and deepest condolences to his wife, Martha, his children Oje and Athena and to all of the Harts.
This has deeply affected me and i want to take this opportunity to say thank you to the hart family for sharing owen with us the blood-hungry fans and to Owen for doign this all for us! You will be sorely missed by not only myself but by many others as well!!
I want to take this time now to get on a soapbox and express my views on this situation. I hope that each and everyone at Titan sports and at World CHampionshop wrestling get their heads out of their asses and realizee what they are asking of these men is too much! These guys were trained to get in a ring adn wrestle on a mat. They are not trained as stunten to fly in on a wing and a prayer.
This death shoul nbe the wake up call not only for the people involved in the business, but also it should be a wake up call to teh fans. STOP THIS THIRSTINESS FOR BLOOD, GUTS, PAIN AND BIGGER AND BETTER STUNTS!!!! To put their bodies through bumps and bruises everysingle night to wrestle should be enough. Please, do not ask anymore for things like Inferno Matches, Hell in a Cell matches, Barbed Wire matches, tack matches, Most chair-shots to the head matches, etc, etc, etc. Please, lets go back to the old school wrestling. If thats what takes it out of the mainstreama dn out of the billion dollar pay-per-view mark, then WONDERFUL!!! It means we save a life!! It means Mick FOley and Mark Callaway's children will have their daddies for another day, unlike Owen Harts babies!
I encourage everyone who feels as vehemntly about this as I do to write Titan Sports call them, email them and beg them to stop this!! No more sacrifices on a "symbol" and no more risks to the men who go out for us everysingle night! I want to keep seeing them, not hear about their death or their paralysis from stupid stunts done in a ring in the name of ratings, money, or fan enjoyment!!
Stunts, pyrotechnics, flying and tacks were not what i got into wrestling for. I was 4 years old when i went to my first live match with my grandfather. My nephew is 8 and I refuse to take him or let my sister let him watch wrestling!! I can't in good conscience do that. And i think it is high time that we get back to old time entertainment, entertainment acceptable for all ages---lets get back to real, old time wrestling!!
If there is anything good that can come out of Owen's senseless death, let it be this!
THank you for taking the time to read this column, my opinions and feelings and I hope that you can go and show your concerns and voice your opinions to the appropriate people!
To Owen, try not to let Brian corrupt you too much up there and try not to raise too much hell in Heaven together! :) Tell Joey we miss him and try to to have too much fun hiding things from the guys, or torturing the fans at the live shows!!
To The Hart family, I sincerely hope that you can find a way through this, and I hope you all know that Owen is in a better place than we can ever fully appreciate.
