Double J is similar in age, we're similar in experience. I think if we hooked up, we could be a formidable team. We get along well inside the ring and outside the ring.

It's kind of an art, going out and performing. I'd like fans to remember me as a guy who would go out and entertain them, give them quality matches, and not just the same old garbage every week.

Owen Hart

A guy like Benoit, he's really good and a lot like Dynamite. Dynamite, just because he was the original, was the best. But, you know, Benoit now is by far better. Dynamite Kid is nothing now.

Owen Hart

Not only was it that I surprised people by beating Bret Hart, but it was a great match. They still rate it as one of the best wrestling matches of all time.

Owen Hart

When I won the belt, it was kind of a precedent... The only Canadian to have ever held it.

Owen Hart

I see these guys, they throw a guy into the ropes and they do a back flip and then clothesline the guy and it looks stupid. Why don't you just clothesline the guy?

Owen Hart

Why do you need to do a fancy cartwheel for before you hit him? It just looks stupid.

Owen Hart

When I came into the WWF, the first thing I really didn't want to have was being Bret Hart's little brother.

Owen Hart

They said they wanted a lot of feathers, glitter, colourful colours. A costume. So I had a lady here in Calgary make it. She just kind of put together what I had in mind.

Owen Hart

Vince McMahon said alright, we're going to call you the Blue Blazer.

Owen Hart

All I had to do was go out and perform. One of the hardest things was doing those back flips, where you had to jump up and land on the top rope. It's precision movement.

Owen Hart

I'd come from the bottom of the barrel. Just Owen Hart getting out of the shadow of Bret Hart's little brother. Everyone figured, this is a joke, Owen's going to get squashed.

Owen Hart

Some guys can do more talking in the ring, other guys do posing, body building, whatever the hell they do in the ring. But I don't have the big body, and I'm not the big smooth talker, but I can get in the ring and wrestle.

Owen Hart

If Bret went in there and stunk the place out, then they probably wouldn't have brought the little brother in. So just by being successful himself, it opened the door for me.

Owen Hart

I'm Owen Hart and I have my own identity and my own style.

Owen Hart

There's so many documentaries out there right now and everything's exposing wrestling.

Owen Hart

It's kind of beating a dead horse if you're talking about going out and saying wrestling's fake, or this or that. People don't want to hear that. They want to hear, they wanted to find an inside story.

Owen Hart

You get on TV and you become more of a star and it makes it real hard to go back to school and sit in a classroom, put your hand up if you have a question or something.

Owen Hart

It's unacceptable to just sit on the couch and say I'm not doing anything. You've got to get out and do everything you can.

Owen Hart

It's hard to pick out one particular wrestler.
