Una triste noticia para los fans de la WWE ha llegado de parte de Bret Hart.

La leyenda de la lucha libre confirmó hace sólo unas horas que padece de cáncer de próstata.

"He tenido una genial vida y soy sobreviviente de muchas batallas. Ahora enfrento mi batalla más difícil. Con miedo y vacilación me declaro abiertamente en una lucha contra el cáncer de próstata", señaló el luchador en su cuenta de Instagram.

Hart informó a sus seguidores que se someterá a una cirugía durante los próximos días a fin de derrotar la enfermedad que lo afecta. Además agradeció a sus fans y a quienes han creído en él, asegurando que no dejará de luchar.

It is with great remorse that I feel compelled to speak truthfully to my friends, family and my millions of fans around the world. In the past few years, I've spent more than enough time paying the price for all those years trying to be the best there ever was as a professional wrestler. I executed excellently and my proudest claim was that I never seriously hurt or injured another wrestler in my 23 year career. I've paid a price for all that "fake" wrestling ... Mark Helprin wrote: "We are all perfect clocks that Divinity has set to ticking when, even before birth, the heart explodes into a lifelong dance." I've had a great lifelong dance and I'm a survivor of many hard battles. I now face my toughest battle. With hesitation and fear, I openly declare myself in my fight against prostate cancer. In the next few days, I will undergo surgery with the hope of defeating this nemesis once and for all. My fans have always looked upon me as a hero and I've always done my best to live up to that in and out of the ring. I beat the odds when I suffered my stroke in 2002, but it is now yet again, that I ... stand unafraid and face the tough road ahead of me, I will march toward this destiny with his spirit chanting in my ear. I make a solemn vow to all of those that once believed in me, the dead and the living, that I will wage my fearsome fight against cancer with one shield and one sword carrying my determination and my fury for life, emboldened by all the love that's kept me going this long already. Love is my weapon and I've got much of it around me all the time, for which I'm truly blessed and eternally grateful. My children, grandchildren, and my loving wife Steph have been and will constantly be at my side. I refuse to lose, I will never give in or give up, and I will win this battle or die trying. Most important of all, I hope can take the fight to prostate cancer. To be a leader in awareness and to set the example for men everywhere who find themselves in my very same shoes, that prostate cancer can be beaten. B x

Cabe recordar que el año 2002 el luchador sufrió un derrame cerebral producto de un grave accidente en bicicleta que lo dejó con todo su lado izquierdo paralizado. Hart se sometió a meses de terapia, con los que logró sobreponerse.

Bret Hart es una de las figuras más destacadas de la lucha libre, debido a los siete campeonatos mundiales, cinco de la WWF y dos campeonatos mundiales de peso pesado de la WCW que ha ganado en sus 23 años de carrera.
