  • The poem he wrote and recited on Raw is Owen in memory of Owen Hart (after openly crying while they tolled the ring bell for him).
    "You feel the burn when you cry.
    It starts to come when someone dies.
    The pain you feel as your eyes swell
    and the tears will up in the wells.
    The burn starts to choke you up.
    The words come out slow and shaken.
    You close your eyes and wonder why
    there is a burn when you cry.
    When Owen left, it felt like hands across my throat.
    I couldn't talk, I couldn't see.
    The burn overwhelmed me.
    My heart is heavy, this is why
    you get the burn when you cry.
    It digs down deep, you cannot sleep.
    You toss and turn in your sheets.
    Awaken with sobs and wet pillow cases.
    You wander aimlessly looking to the sky.
    You feel the burn when you cry."
  • Speaking of Owen, his thoughts on Owen's exemption from the Hall of Fame (the short answer is Owen's widow, Martha, wants absolutely nothing to do with WWE, including portraying or even honoring the deceased Owen, after Owen's death). And Mark was really tearing up over it, too.
    Mark: Martha, This is not from the company, this is not from the wrestlers, this is from his other brother; he needs to be here.
