Bret Hart to appear on WWE Raw season premiere episode

One of pro wrestling’s all-time greats is set to appear on the next episode of WWE Raw.

With the show being held in Calgary, Bret Hart will be on Raw this coming Monday. The show is taking place from the Scotiabank Saddledome and is being billed as the season premiere edition of Raw.

“I can officially confirm through some very legitimate sources that this Monday, on the season premiere of Monday Night Raw, Canadian legend Bret ‘The Hitman’ Hart will be at the Saddledome in Calgary,” WWE’s Jackie Redmond announced.

The role Hart will be playing on the show has not been revealed, but it’s possible that — given CM Punk’s association with Hart — he could get involved in the Punk-Drew McIntyre storyline. There was an angle on Raw earlier this week where Punk was taken out in an ambulance after being attacked by McIntyre.

Paul “Triple H” Levesque posted the following tweet hyping up Hart’s appearance:

When in Hart country… @BretHart joins us for #WWERaw’s massive season premiere, this Monday at 8/7c LIVE from Calgary on @USANetwork.

You definitely won’t want to miss this. https://t.co/3ypa5Gsnpd
