This Day In Wrestling History


In Houston, Texas, Vince McMahon creates the WWF "Hardcore Championship" and awards it to Mankind (Mick Foley). Ironically, Mankind would hold the title for less than a month, and never win it back. Despite this, the Hardcore Title is often associated with Foley.

David Hart Smith Released


From WWE.com:

WWE has come to terms on the release of David Hart Smith as of today, August 5, 2011. WWE wishes David the best in all of his future endeavors.

WWE Superstars Results: Fall of The Hart Dynasty


For the first time ever, former WWE Tag Team Champions Tyson Kidd and David Hart Smith squared off in what everyone in the WWE Universe knew would be a heated battle. Since violently parting ways three weeks ago on Raw, the ex-members of The Hart Dynasty have been burning to lock up and the first showdown between these two young talents was nothing short of a war. Called the best pound for pound competitor on the WWE roster by CM Punk, the spiteful Kidd knew he’d have to utilize every hold he learned in the fabled Hart Dungeon to bring down his powerful opponent. But the grappler was shocked when Smith won the match not with his strength, but with an unexpected pinning counter. Feeling that they’d settled their differences, David Hart Smith offered his hand to Tyson Kidd, but only received a slap in the face in return. Clearly, this conflict is far from over. Full results.

Recap of "Bret Hart Appreciation Night" at Madison Square Garden


After intermission, they had a ceremony honoring Bret Hart. Howard introduced Jerry Lawler, and the Hart Dynasty to take part. Finkel said it gives him a great pleasure to introduce Bret Hart, saying Bret was unequivocably was the "Best there was, best there is and the best there ever will be." Hart received a deserved standing ovation.

Finkel noted that tonight was the first 13 years that Bret graced The Garden (if you ignore the Rangers game a few days ago). They presented Bret with a photo of Bret and his mother, a photo of Bret posing with Owen Hart and a photo of Bret and his brothers. There was a huge "Owen" chant.

Madison Square Garden then presented Bret with a New York Rangers jersey with the number to commemorate the year Hart returned to the Garden. The fans chanted "Thank you Bret." Nice classy moment.

Bret Hart took the mic. He said 13 years was a long time and he doesn't think there was another city of Arena he missed more than NYC. He knew years ago he would return one more time to thank his fans because they were the best.

The Nexus' music played and out came Michael Tarver, Heath Slater and. Tarver said there was a problem and that was no one invited the Nexus. He said they were the best that ever will be. He said he wanted to offer Bret the gift of safety tonight and gave Bret a chance to join the Nexus. They went right into the match. Bret Hart & The Hart Dynasty defeated the Nexus with Jerry Lawler as the special guest referee.

The Harts celebrated but the Nexus attacked the Dynasty, tossing them out of the ring. They cornered Bret and punched out Lawler but Lawler made the save punching out Tarver and Gabriel. Bret clobbered Slater and Lawler hit the fistdrop off the ropes. Bret then locked in the Sharpshooter on Slater, who furiously tapped. Bret and the Harts took a long time greetings fans at ringside after. The match was decent and Hart did more than anyone should have expected from him, but it was all secondary to the happy ending of Bret returning victorious to MSG. That ending was a classy, great moment.

I'm feeling the Uso Brothers (especially Jules!). I think Tamina will be ok once she gets over her nervousness.

New U.S. Champion

During the no disqualification, no count-out bout for the United States Title, it seemed as if half of Canada had charged the ring. Before beloved Canadian Bret Hart battled The Miz, the U.S. Champion employed enforcers William Regal and Vladimir Kozlov to watch the ring. To combat the duo, Unified Tag Team Champions The Hart Dynasty fought them off. During the melee, Chris Jericho and Miz entered the ring and surrounded The “Hit Man.” The Hart family, however, had the back of one of their own.

When Miz attempted to lock the Sharpshooter onto Hart, The Hart Dynasty leveled the loudmouth, allowing The “Hit Man” to lock in his signature maneuver himself for the win and championship gold.

Introducing...David Hart Smith

Currently World Wrestling Entertainment is just crawling with second and third generation stars; the sons and daughters of the wrestlers who came decades before. Some have already found great success, some have fallen by the wayside and some are just getting started.

David Hart Smith is one of those “new kids” who is just starting his journey. Born Harry Smith, this 22 year-old Canadian prodigy is the son of “British Bulldog” Davey Boy Smith, nephew of Bret and the late Owen Hart and grandson of legendary promoter Stu Hart. His in-ring moniker is an obvious nod to his father and his mother Diana’s maiden name...More?

ECW Results: Extreme Hart

One week after David Hart Smith shocked the WWE Universe by attacking The Belfast Brawler in his match with Tyson Kidd, the son of The British Bulldog triumphed over Finlay with a devastating high-and-tight suplex. The returning Superstar achieved his edge thanks to a distraction from his fellow Hart Dungeon-trainees, Tyson Kidd & Natalya, allowing him to rattle his tough-as-nails opponent with a shot from Natalya’s shoe. While warming-up for the match earlier in the evening with The Hart Trilogy, Hart Smith made the chilling statement he is better than his father ever was. Full results.

Background on ECW's Latest Rookie Debut, Tyson Kidd

Teddy Long introduced a new talent by the name of Tyson Kidd. Kidd, whose real name is TJ Wilson, is a longtime friend of the legendary Hart family and did in fact train in Stu Hart's famous dungeon. Prior to his debut on ECW, Wilson held the tag team titles in FCW with his partner DH Smith. He has been wrestling since 1995, making his professional debut when he was 15 years old.

WWE had plans to call Wilson up to the SmackDown roster with DH Smith and Natalya several weeks back as the New Hart Foundation, but those plans changed when Smith went to the creative team and pitched a role for himself on the Raw roster as a member of Legacy. As a result, there was heat on Smith from other wrestlers as they felt he damaged Wilson and Natalya's chances of making it to the main roster in a pronounced role. In a case of turnabout is fair play, Wilson and Natalya have stable roles in the company whereas Smith has been left to fend for himself in developmental.

With Wilson on ECW, Natalya has been transferred from the SmackDown roster to manage him. Natalya is close to Wilson as the WWE Diva has been dating him since November 2001 and the two have lived together for approximately six years.
