Whakaotihia te rerenga e whai ake nei: I tenei wa, ko te whakataetae a Hart i runga i te rangi me Vince McMahon i piki ake. Ko te riri o te ringside i waenga i te tokorua i arahina ai te tini o nga kaiwhaiwhai ki te kino ki a McMahon, i te wa e whakaatuhia ana ko ia te rangatira o te WWF i nga wa katoa. Ahakoa i hainatia e Hart he kirimana 20-tau i te 1996, i te mutunga o te tau 1997 ka raru te WWF i te ahuatanga tahua, kaore e taea e ia te whakahonore i te kirimana. Ahakoa ko Hart pea te kaiwhawhai nui rawa atu o te ao i waenga o nga tau 1990, i whakaaro ano a McMahon kua tiimata te uara o tana ahuatanga, ana ka akiaki ia i a Hart ki te toro atu ki te World Championship Wrestling (WCW) mo tetahi kirimana, ko te tumanako he rite ki ta raatau tuku taketake. Ahakoa te kore hiahia o Hart ki te wehe i te WWF me te hiahia ki te whakawhitiwhiti korero. I muri mai ka hainatia e Hart tetahi kirimana e toru tau me te WCW. Ko tana tukinga whakamutunga ki te WWF he tukinga taitara ki tana hoa whawhai o te ao Shawn Michaels i
Ko te Survivor Series i Montreal. Kaore a Hart i hiahia ki te whakamutu i tana umanga WWF me te ngaronga ki a Michaels i tona whenua, ina koa me te horopaki o to raatau iwi-a-iwi; a i whakaekea ki te ngaro, ki te whakakore, ki te tuku ranei i te whitiki ki a Michaels i tetahi atu huarahi e hiahia ana a McMahon. I whakaae a McMahon ki te whakaaro a Hart mo te whakakore i te toa i te po i muri mai i runga i te "Raw Is War" ka ngaro ranei i etahi wiki i muri mai.
