WWE Hall of Famer Bret Hart recently addressed his lack of involvement in AEW's Owen Hart tournaments during a virtual signing with Signed By Superstars, stating that AEW has never reached out to him. Hart expressed that if he were to participate, it might upset WWE, given his financial ties with the company. He indicated that while he admires AEW President Tony Khan and would be happy to help, he is uncertain about the implications of getting involved. The Owen Hart Foundation Tournament, which has been ongoing since 2021, recently concluded, with Bryan Danielson and Mariah May winning title shots at the upcoming All In pay-per-view. Hart, who had a notable role in AEW's inaugural event in 2019, also reminisced about his favorite opponents, including his brother Owen. His absence from the tournament has raised eyebrows among fans and commentators alike.
