When asked whether they ever considered becoming professional wrestlers, Dallas stated that they both "dabbled" and spent time training with Lance T. Storm.

"We've been in the ring with our dad a bit as well. You can tell he's an old veteran that wishes he could get back in there and do all the things he used to. It's like, 'no dad, you can tell us what to do, there's no showing us,'" Dallas laughed. Blade added, "trained with Dory Funk, Jr. for a little bit. That's when I was, like, 19 years old. Went down and trained with Lance, a little bit with our cousin, Ted."

Dallas claimed that Bret never pushed them into professional wrestling and has remained supportive of them.

"I don't think he [has] ever pushed us in either direction. If we wanted to do it, he's there to support us and pushed us in that direction, and when we tell him it's not something we wanted to do, he [has] been supportive."

As for whether Owen should be in WWE's Hall Of Fame, Blade and Dallas agreed that he should have been inducted a long time ago. Blade went on to say that the entire Hart Foundation should take their rightful place in the WWE Hall Of Fame.

"Down the road, it'd be nice to have the whole Hart Foundation in. Davey [Smith], [Brian] Pillman, Owen, Jim [Neidhart]. Get everybody in there. If you're going to have the Four Horsemen in there, the Hart Foundation has to be in there."

While Dallas indicated that Tyson Kidd is "pretty determined" to return to the squared circle following a career-threatening neck injury, Blade seemed to be more cautious.

"It could be a case like Daniel Bryan where he wants to, but his body might not let him. We'll know more in the coming months, but that's all I know." Blade added, "he was here shooting the breeze with Dad a few weeks ago. I think he and Nattie are happy. They have all the cats they love in the world. They're a happy family over there."

With respect to Sharpshooter Funding, the company provides business loans and alternative lending solutions. Dallas said that there are four people involved at this point: himself, Blade, Shay Cassidy, and Paul Pitcher.

"Paul's the one who brought us on and has the sister company in the U.S., First Down Funding. They have all the NFL players as the spokesmen, and it [has] done really well. We just touched down in Canada a few months ago and it [has] done well so far."

Cassidy shared what types of businesses Sharpshooter Funding is currently targeting.

"Businesses that have been operating for at least 12 months. Startup businesses will be something we do in the U.S., it's a beta test period to learn how the risk falls with Canada vs. the U.S. market, but anything with daily or weekly debits like a restaurant, trucking company, boat company, anything with consistent revenue. Things like that do well, whereas a contractor might get one big statement a month and they're huge in deposits. We like to see consistent revenue, so that if they have a bad month, we know they can get through that following month. We like those businesses that have that daily revenue."
