Bret Hart is back at it again with the 4/10's.
Hart has never made his impression of former WWE World Heavyweight Champion Triple H secret. He's also not letting his foot off the gas pedal, either. On a recent episode of the Sharpshooter Podcast, Hart spoke with his sons about Triple H's rating in WWE 2K16 as compared to his.
"I like the new one but I have some discrepancies with the game a little bit. I went to a thing last fall when the latest 2K game was coming out. They were telling me how I'm an 85 or something like that and Triple H is a 98. I remember I was like, 'Why would he be a 98?' and they go, 'Well because he's the boss and we have to suck up to the boss.' I don't know, he was laughing about it, it kind of pissed me off. I thought, 'I don't care how many titles Triple H wins, he could never lace my f--king boots up. Period,” Hart said.

For the record, Triple H had three characters – two were ranked 91, and another was 84. Hart's was 90. Either way, Hart wasn't impressed, and elaborated on his now infamous “4/10” comments.
"He was a very good, medium, mediocre wrestler. He never blew me away with anything he's ever done, he's never come up with much. He's always been a very decent wrestler that could give you a good match but as far as being like mind blowing... I never saw it, I've still never seen it. I've seen him in some matches and the whole "4/10" thing came out of his match with Brock Lesnar, which should have been such a good match. It was a mediocre match, if that. That's where the "4/10" comes from, he's always a guy that will give you a "5/10" match every night. He's going to give you all he can give you and that's just my opinion. There are certain guys where you put these video games out and I don't care, I think you have to do justice to the wrestlers as they were in their careers. It should be based on reality, not things like who you know in the office. Vince McMahon could make him 35-time World Champion and it doesn't mean he's 35 times better than anyone else that ever wrestled, he's just not. As far as the games go, I think they should be honest. Someone like Bruno Sammartino should never be a jobber on a video game, so and so forth. I think you have to pay respect. When I think of a video game, I think about how I'd love to have Buddy Rogers vs. Ric Flair, something like that where you can wrestle these Legends against each other from different periods and stuff. They should always represent the reality of what the business is and was. It should also include the respect the wrestlers have for each other in the dressing room," said Hart.
For those wondering, Heath Slater was rated 78.
