TJ Wilson Reveals Role In Bret Hart & Shawn Michael's WWE Reconciliation
The two publicly buried the hatchet in 2010
Jun 16, 2021
TJ Wilson has revealed how he gave Bret Hart's phone number to Shawn Michaels following WrestleMania 25, which eventually led to the duo burying the hatchet.
Michaels and Hart had been fierce rivals in the 1990s, exasperated by the 'Montreal Screwjob' in 1997 with the two hardly speaking since. The two would make up, including shaking hands in a WWE Raw ring in early 2010.
Wilson, formerly known as Tyson Kidd, has now revealed how he spoke to Shawn in early 2009 and gave the Heartbreak Kid Hart's phone number.
Speaking on That 90’s Wrestling Podcast, he said: "I think Nattie had mentioned it to Bret [Hart] and then he and I had a very long talk. He called me and asked me about the conversation and we just kind of talked a lot back and forth and then at WrestleMania 25 when Shawn [Michaels] and Undertaker had that amazing match, I followed Shawn to the locker room and then I — I think I gave him Bret’s number that day and then he called later.
"Like way later on but that was kind of the start of that but the truth is those two hadn’t seen each other face-to-face. That was too big of a thing and they’re both just too talented and I think they had to see each other face-to-face. They couldn’t talk that one out over the phone."
