On this week's Grilling JR with WWE Hall Of Famer Jim Ross &amp; Conrad Thompson, the topic is something wrestling fans never thought they would see...the return of Bret Hart to Monday Night Raw, and a WWE ring! Over twelve years after the infamous Montreal Screwjob that changed Vince McMahon and his character forever, and left Bret headed for WCW, Bret returned on the January 4, 2010 Raw, head to head with Hulk Hogan's debut on TNA Impact on Spike TV! How did WWE finally convince Bret to return? How many false starts had there been before, really? And what were JR's expectations for Bret, in the ring, on the mic, and his impact on ticket sales and TV ratings? Plus, JR's thoughts on Bret's initial interactions with Shawn Michaels and Vince, the infamous Wrestlemania match that ended the Hart-McMahon story, listener questions and more!
