I think he’s full of crap, BUT, I remember in late 86, just before the Harts won the tag titles, the Bees beat them on TV in a #1 contender match. It was weird because the Bulldogs were champs at the time and it never went anywhere. So maybe there was something there? Is his timeline just off, I wonder? Or he’s full of crap, whatever.
