Personally...Bret Hart worked for the World Wrestling Federation...Not World Wrestling Entertainment. This is as different as night and day to me.
Why is that? The older guys, like Bret, Hogan, Savage, Warrior, etc worked in a totally different company to me. It was a time when people suspected wrestling of being gimmicked and as scripted as Knight Rider, but, it wasn't acknowledged in public by any of the major wrestling outfits (until a much younger Linda McMahon told the Pennsylvania Athletic Board that they shouldn't have to be regulated because they product was, in fact, scripted out in advance so that there was no need for that oversight). Wrestling back then looked more real, as well. The old school guys are slowing dying out and/or becoming the "Fat overweight slobs" that Rick Rude would insult weekly (Are you reading this Dusty Rhodes?) Sure, the table was set by guys like Flair, Rhodes, Hogan and the other oldsters.
Now, WWE has the 2d or even 3d generation of the old guys working for it and, for them, it's more natural to think of the company as WWE instead of the WWF.
So, yeah, I can see ole Bret calling the company he works for by it's former name and I'm sorry the panda bear would get all upset over a slip. At least in the USA, Bret was not censored, even on the tape delayed West Coast feed.
