According to Dave Meltzer's site, Bret is said to be engaging in some very hands-on mentoring of the Dynasty.
He apparently watches all of their matches and sends them feedback when they are on the road and he is away from the group.
Thus, it appears that Bret's role with the group is much more than that of an on-air personality.

Which is exactly what a good mentor should do.

Use of the company jet ten times per year
Ground transportation paid for by the company
5 star hotel accomadations paid for by the company

Was this match taking place while Dynamite's back was injured?

I don’t believe so.
It may have aired on TV after Dyno’s injury, but I think the Bulldogs only wrestled one more match as champions after Dynamite hurt himself - that being the job to the Hart Foundation.
By his own admission, Tom couldn’t even walk to the ring unassisted for that bout - that’s how badly he was hurt.

Finally, if this match had taken place between Tom’s injury and the HF job, I strongly suspect he would have appeared in roughly 99% worse condition than we see him here.


Here is the match in which Tom & Davey dropped the titles to the Foundation:



Although not seen in this footage, Dynamite was “jumped from behind” en route to the ring.
The shot he sustained from Jimmy Hart’s megaphone was used to explain why he could not wrestle in the match.

That was a great angle with Danny Davis. I enjoyed that back in the day.

Here's a Bulldogs vs. Harts match from when Dynamite was still healthy:

After they lost the titles to the hart's, dynamites back didn't look to bad like it was bothering him. He wrestled through WM3 in that big six man tag match and again for several months before taking a couple of months off.

The combination of juice, coccaine, vicodin, and cortisone have miraculous healing effects.

I remember even in Brett's book, he stated that Tom Billington would take three percosets before every match after he hurt his back. 3 PERCOSETS. I know people who take only a quarter tablet and thats for extreme pain.

And getting ready for a comeback. Too bad that he had to die. I always like the Bulldog(s).

During, I think, his last WWF comeback, Davey remarked that he sensed that a lot of the guys had pegged him for a has-been who was WAY PAST HIS PHYSICAL PRIME and hanging on for dear life to a business that had passed him by.
He claimed that everyone was nice to him backstage, but more as a sign of respect for his past accomplishments.

Then he climbed in the ring to warm up.
After a few handsprings, etc., people’s attitude changed as they realized that, not only was he serious about this, but he still had it.

Stu Hart once said something to the effect that, when he's in shape, nobody can put on a show like the Bulldog.

He's had some great matches with Shawn Michaels, Curt Henning, Bret Hart and as the Bulldogs with Dynamite Kid some phenomenal tag matches. When he stepped into the ring you were guaranteed a great match.

They need to do a Bulldog's DVD.
They have the archival footage, and there are plenty of guys who could provide personal accounts of the cousins.

I hate to think that they'll just throw together some matches and have Matt Stryker & Maria sit there and talk about them.

Lol...I know. I would be the first to buy that DVD, believe me. But I can't stand striker and thank God they got rid of Maria. They made me sick in the Randy Savage dvd.
