The Excellence of Execution, Bret “The Hitman” Hart, is reportedly set to make a big splash on the season premiere of WWE Raw. With PWInsider Elite stirring the pot, there’s speculation that Hart’s return will somehow be tied to World Heavyweight Champion GUNTHER. Whether he’s offering sage advice, throwing some shade, or lacing up the boots for old time’s sake (hey, we can dream), one thing is clear: this is going to be must-see TV.
This return couldn’t be more fitting, with Raw broadcasting live from the Scotiabank Saddledome in Calgary, Alberta—Hart’s hometown. And to make the moment even sweeter, Triple H has been hyping up Hart’s appearance, telling fans it’s something they “definitely” won’t want to miss.
What Else to Expect on Raw’s Season Premiere
Beyond Bret Hart’s surprise involvement, fans are in for a stacked night of action. Women’s Tag Team Champions Jade Cargill and Bianca Belair will defend their titles against former champs Isla Dawn and Alba Fyre—a clash that promises high-flying mayhem. Plus, we’ll find out the next number one contender for Bron Breakker’s Intercontinental Championship in a Fatal Four-Way featuring Ilja Dragunov, Braun Strowman, Pete Dunne, and Jey Uso.
And in what could very well be the night’s main event, the chaotic Wyatt Sicks will battle Chad Gable, the Creed Brothers, and Ivy Nile in a mixed tag team street fight that’s sure to end with more than just bruised egos.
With Hart’s return and a card packed tighter than a sardine can, this season premiere is shaping up to be an unforgettable night. What role will Bret play in GUNTHER’s story? Tune in Monday to find out!
