Owen Hart’s Widow Issues A Statement On WWE’s Planned DVD

It was revealed earlier this week that WWE plans for release an Owen Hart DVD which fans were delighted to hear. Martha Hart however, Owen’s widow, does not support the idea. She issued the following to WrestlingDVDNews.com.

“My children and I were unaware of this project until May 7, when it was brought to our attention by a friend who had read about it online. Contrary to your report, we do not back or support it in any way, nor has WWE requested our backing or support. From what little we know of the project, it seems to be another attempt to exploit Owen’s memory, and his tragic death, for commercial gain. We have resisted that kind of initiative for almost 16 years. If WWE really wanted to honor Owen’s legacy, it would just let him rest in peace.”
