A New Hart Beats

I am looking forward to the WWE debut of the all new Hart Foundation.

The group - all relatives of the Hart family - are currently in the developmental territory that is the training ground for future talent before they are called up to the main roster.

The threesome consists of Teddy Hart, Nattie Neidhart and Harry Smith.

Teddy Hart is a nephew of Bret Hart. He is quite a controversial figure on the independent scene as he is a bit eccentric. People think he has the talent to make an impact on the business but his immaturity will be his downfall.

Nattie is the daughter of Jim 'The Anvil' Neidhart which makes her another Hart as her father is married to one of the Hart sisters.

Harry Smith is the son of Diana Hart and the late 'British Bulldog' Davey Boy Smith.

The original Hart Foundation were a WWF tag team comprising of Bret and Jim Neidhart. They were a popular fixture in the company from the mid 80's to early 90's until the Hitman was pushed as a singles star.

In 1997 the Hart Foundation was reformed as part of a USA versus Canada feud. This time the team consisted of the Hitman and the Anvil as well as Owen Hart, the British Bulldog and Brian Pillman.

The irony of all ironies is that ten years later only Bret and Jim - the original Hart Foundation - are living.

The new stable will hopefully further the legacy.
