More names confirmed for 'Raw 15th Anniversary', Bret Hart, & signing
On Saturday, December 8, 2007 at 4:21 PM EST In addition to WWE confirming Steve Austin, Hulk Hogan, Mick Foley, Eric Bischoff, Sunny, Trish Stratus and Lita for the Raw 15th Anniversary, The Wrestling Observer is reporting that Mae Young, Gangrel and Jim Neidhart are also scheduled to be apart of the show. You can expect any stars from the last 15 years to have been contacted to appear on the show Monday, just as long as they aren't under contract with TNA.
We noted earlier that Bret Hart was being promoted in the cable preview for Raw. Tim sent word that when asked on a recent appearance on TSN's "Off the Record" with Michael Landsberg, Bret stated he was asked to appear on the show but declined.
Speaking of Bret, Aman Singh sent this in: I just came back from the Bret Hart book signing session that was held at Wal-Mart in Scarborough Ont. on Dec 8/07 at 11am. We arrived their at 8:30am to find around 20 people in front of us. By 10:45am the area was starting to get packed. Bret Hart arrived around 11:15am. The security made several announcements that "no other memorabillia or merchandise would be signed."
We got our books signed by around 11:30am. When we were leaving the line-up had stretched over multiple isles. Bret was really nice he shook hands with everyone and gladly posed for pictures. He seemed happy to be there and was extremely nice. Also Jason Sensation made an appearance, he had everyone laughing with his Bret and Steve Austin impressions. While Bret was signing books Jason was in the crowd doing impressions of various wrestlers and calling out the Hitman, Bret was trying hard not to laugh. This was the best autograph session I have been to, well worth the wait.
