Ross Hart told the Calgary Herald that he believes WWE's "Hart & Soul" DVD was done in good taste. "If (WWE) exploited (Owen's) name negatively, I can understand but this really was a documentary about the whole family," Hart told the Calgary Herald in response to the lawsuit Martha Hart filed against the company.

"It was done in pretty good taste, even by WWE standards. Wrestling is what made Owen famous and successful and such a legend and you can't erase that. As tragic and wrongful as his death was, you can't erase his legacy and what he accomplished in wrestling."

Meanwhile, WWE attorney Jerry McDevitt stated that an Ontario court shot down Martha's attempt for an injunction over the release of the DVD. "Owen Hart was a public figure," McDevitt said. "His death was widely reported. (Martha) wrote a book about it. Everybody that Owen's life touched has their right to tell their version of the Owen Hart story and he's a part of the WWE's history."

Powell's POV: The story notes that Martha and Bret Hart were not available for comment. WWE officials have labeled the lawsuit she filed on Tuesday as a political attack on Linda McMahon, who is running for the U.S. Senate. Linda and Vince McMahon are both named in the lawsuit along with WWE.
