CM Punk has made no secret that Bret Hart is a hero of his, and the Best in the World is never far away from the Hitman. Speaking to GQ Sports, Punk revealed that he always carries a figure of the Canadian wrestling icon with him.
He travels in my fanny pack with me because I often will find myself in situations where I ask myself... What would Bret Hart do?
Calling the figure a "totem," Punk is pleased to have a connection to his "old-school roots" with him when he travels. After growing up as a Bret Hart fan, Punk is now honored to have a connection to Bret beyond the figure.
Bret's a mentor of mine. I can text him right now and ask him what he thinks in the world... I feel fortunate that I am able to do that.
Bret Hart will soon become WWE's first three-time Hall of Famer as his iconic WrestleMania 13 showdown with Steve Austin will be the first 'Immortal Moment' inducted. And with Punk being such a fan of the Best there is/was/ever will be, it's only fitting that he will be on hand to induct the match on the eve of WrestleMania 41.
