Hart’s comments come after Finn Balor’s win over Rollins for the newly commissioned Universal Title, which Balor had to relinquish the following night on RAW after suffering a dislocated shoulder in that match with Rollins.

Wrestlzeone’s Nick Hausman, who used to host Hart’s weekly podcasts, published the strongly worded riposte from The Hitman on the website.

It was a familiar stance from Hart who in June criticised Rollins for breaking John Cena’s.

“I take no great pleasure in saying “I told you so,” but if you’re a professional wrestler and you keep hurting opponents and or yourself, clearly you’re doing it wrong,” read the response posted by Hausman. “I wrestled a very realistic and physical style and not once in 23 yrs did I ever hurt one opponent ever.

“Seth Rollins needs to improve his technique and become the safest wrestler in the business. I have great respect for Seth. I believe he’ll improve and hopefully stop hurting the talent before someone gets killed.

“Wrestlers have to trust one another. If a wrestler holds the life of another wrestler in his hands for the sake of his family, wife or children you plain and simply cannot drop it.”

Balor put his shoulder back in place during the match and has since undergone surgery.
