Bret Hart Attacked During WWE Hall of Fame Speech: VIDEO
The WWE Hall of Fame ceremony is a pretty tame affair during WrestleMania weekend, but tonight’s ceremony took a turn when Bret Hart was tackled by a fan during the show.
Hart was giving his acceptance speech after being inducted for the second time into the WWE Hall of Fame as a member of the Hart Foundation tag team. The video below shows a fan rushing the ring and tackling Hart along with WWE Superstar Natalya before a number of current WWE Superstars entered the ring.

As expected, many fans – and some wrestlers – were furious about this attack and took to Twitter to express their outrage. (Some NSFW language ahead.)

Is the guy who attacked Bret Hart the same guy who invaded Seth Rollins's entrance? #WWEHOF pic.twitter.com/m2otDHgUOD

Huge respect for Bret Hart for continuing his speech after being attacked by an attendee.

Fan isn't the right word to use in this situation. No fan of wrestling would do such a thing. #WWEHOF
I am recording so not watching but i hope the fan who attacked Bret Hart while hes on stage tonight at the #WWEHOF is arrested and put in jail. Disgusting. Speechless. Wrestling is better than that. Absolute scumbag.
