Bret Hart: "Right off the bat, I just wanna take this opportunity to congratulate Shawn Michaels on an absolutely incredible, epic, story book career. And nobody knows better than I do that Shawn Michaels was not only one of the greatest wrestlers that I ever stepped in the ring with, but he was one of the greatest wrestlers of all time. And coming from the Hitman, I just wanna wish you all the very best in the future. When I came back to the WWE, it was Shawn Michaels that said 'Good things are gonna happen'. And he was right.

And the idea of now being 44 and - I don't know - not coming into your homes on that TV set every week is gonna be a little tough to get used to. ['Thank you Shawn'] You know something? I appreciate you saying 'Thank you', but I have to tell you something: I have to thank you. Because... You all may not understand this, but for the longest time this ring and all of you was the only thing I had in my life. It was the only place that I ever felt good about me. And night in and night out, you guys were the only ones in the world that ever made me like me. And... You know, I would like to--You know, there are so many people I'd like to thank, but I'm so afraid of doing that for fear I'm gonna forget somebody.
