The Hart Foundation 2K7
I was wondering whatever became of Harry Smith?
He was supposed to debut back in May on the main Raw roster, yet despite a one-off appearance in the mass brawl between WWE and ECW, and an interview on WWE.com, there's been no sign of him. It's probably that the un-creative team can't come up with anything for him. How bout this? Harry Smith, T.J. Wilson, Teddy Hart and Nattie Neidhart = Hart Foundation: The Next Generation Last edited by NeanderCarl; 12-05-2006 at 07:42 PM. |

Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart could be their bodyguard and occasional tag team partner, and maybe even Bret Hart would allow himself to be involved in WWE again as their manager.
If anything would bring the 'Hitman' back, it would be to help his family out. He would realise that a new Hart Foundation, exacting revenge on DX and Vince McMahon, would get his nephews and niece over big time. |

That'd be sweet. I can't see why not? This is probably the Val Venis mark in me, but I can see a temporary team between them working. Venis defeated The British Bulldog to win the European Championship at one stage, and you can have that be Smith's justification for turning Venis into a mentor. Just give them a few wins against Lance Cade & Trevor Murdoch, then have them split and feud.
By the way, I so think Harry Smith should be the guy to break Chris Masters' Masterlock. Either him, or Charles Evans from OVW. |

I gotta say, putting absolute nobodies against your ME isn't the best idea. Though I do like the recreation of the Hart Foundation.

If you could spend a little while getting them over first though I'd be game.

Well they all have famous links to the wrestling business, they all learned the ropes the Stampede way, and having a bonafide Hart (Anvil, or Hitman) in their corner and a clear mission (revenge) I think it could be a nice hotshot angle to bring in some interest and spike a PPV or two, and then let them cool down and establish themselves on their own.
I think the WWE fans would accept them as "Harts" rather than see them as "nobodies", and the Hart name holds weight. |

It's all moot anyway really, because unless he's drastically changed his ways, Teddy Hart has about as much chance of landing a job in WWE again as Ahmed Johnson has of becoming X-Division champion.

Booker T broke the Masterlock at WrestleMania 21 in the Battle Royal.
And I don't know if they'll count that as "breaking the Masterlock" because Masters basically let go of him after ramming him into the buckles. |

I'm sure if HBK was on his death bed in the middle of the ring in Calgery and Vince gave Bret the chance to shoot on HBK, be it on the mic or in the ring, and doing this would end world hunger, get a cure for cancer, and make K-Fed's balls explode Bret still wouldn't step foot in front of a WWE camera. The Best there is, The Best there was, and The Best there ever will be is now just the best there was. It's been almost 10 years and the last time HBK was in Canada he was getting cheered. The whole "Let's make money off of something that happened in '97" isn't going to happen. As of The Anvil playing bodyguard, that's like watching all of Hogan's last matches. There's no point to it because The Anvil can't get anything out of it. It would be really crappy tv. |

As for the Hitman, the whole reason he made up with Vince McMahon in the first place was because he didn't want ill feeling to hinder his family's future chances of WWE employment (his own words, from several interviews I have read with Bret). I'm sure he would take at the very least a cameo appearance to help his family out. Okay, maybe he would insist that McMahon and Michaels play no part in his appearance. But I think he would show up on camera at least once, for their obvious benefit. He'd be pretty selfish not to even consider it. |

Plus, 'The Anvil' was quite a handy interview, and the Hart Foundation 2K7 angle could still work, even if they don't embark on a feud with HBK/McMahon. Although a heel Harts vs face DX feud would surely be worth a go.
I can imagine the Harts being pushed as bitter and twisted, America bashing, spiteful bastards on a mission of vengeance, and having a strength-in-numbers advantage over DX. That would be more interesting than the more obvious route of having them debut as sympathetic faces. Last edited by NeanderCarl; 12-05-2006 at 07:40 PM. |

I like the idea, as long as they don't feud with DX right away, and have time to establish themselves first. Hart Foundation being brought back sounds cool to me.

Putting The Anvil in The Hart Foundation 2K7 would be like putting Mongo in the new four horsemen.

Didn't anyone see him on Hogan Knows Best as Hogans choice to date his daughter?
This guys career could be made, hes already the son of Bulldog and part of the Hart family, and now Hogan wants him to fuck his daughter and become a part of the Hogan family? haha |

Hell, Hogan may actually put him over if they ever competed in a match.
How does this sound for an idea for Harry Smith, TJ Wilson and Nattie Neidhart: They join the SmackDown! roster. I know there isn't a Women's Title there, but there is Jillian Hall. She can work a pretty nice series with Nattie, and Theodore Long could even create a Title for them to wrestle for. Throw in Kristal Marshall and a call-up or two, and you have an equally strong, if not stronger Women's Division than RAW. Anyway, Harry Smith and TJ Wilson attack Paul London & Brian Kendrick, after they've defended the WWE Tag Team Championship successfully against The Blue Bloods. They basically point out Paul London & Brian Kendrick were trained in Shawn Michaels' Texas Wrestling Academy, and they are from you know where. Smith and Wilson claim to be carrying on the Hart vs. Michaels feud through another generation. This wouldn't require they got hot-shotted straight to the top, and it allows for a Paul London & Brian Kendrick vs. Harry Smith & TJ Wilson series of matches. That alone is worth it. |

I've heard rumours that he's not quite as good as they thought. And it seems Brits get buried in the WWE.
I'm surprised he was never in the Spirit Squad tbh. Harry! |

I swear to god everyone on this thread that thinks Harry Smith is going to be someone huge on WWE's roster is on drugs, and drugs are bad, m'kay?
DX isn't going to put Harry Smith over, Bret Hart has a better chance of setting foot in a WWE ring than Teddy Hart, TJ Wilson is just some dude who is banging The Anvil's little girl, and with the state of women's wrestling today you couldn't get Brooke Hogan to look good, let alone Nattie. You can't have Harry and his pals pick up where we left off almost 10 years ago. You can't put what was a main event fued between a great wrestler and Bret Hart in the mid card with London and Kendrick, or put it in the main event. But I will give you this- The idea of DX wrestling a group that is bigger than DX is a good one. Just as Kenny, Mikey, Johnny, Mitch, and Nicky. |

Did I ever say the WWE won't redo an old idea? Looking at DX, the nWo, how many last matches for Hogan, psycho diva goes after Trish Startus, someone playing the race card, Kurt Angle cutting the same promo for Rey and Tazz about how he likes little boys, and even more drek that we've all sat through before I never said WWE wouldn't do it.
What I meant by "You can't blah blah blah" is it wouldn't be good tv. What we have now isn't the best, but "Teh Hartz tk7 vs HBK or his boyz"... Lemme say it like this- Not even I would sit through that. |

Then you're nutz. I'd sit through anything Hart related first of all, and well guys like Harry and Teddy for one are a ton more interesting than the SS. Teddy, the new brash, cockcy and confident asshole getting a measure of revenge against a guy who was once the same exact way would be intriguing to me. And I do think sooner or later, you will see all of the guys mentioned in this thread in the wwe at the same time. Not to mention now Brets son is getting trained to work in the business. I wish them all the best. |

HBK wouldn't lose to Harry, Teddy, TJ, Nattie, or anyone else in this bad idea because they haven't proven anything to the mainstream wrestling fans. They would just get squashed, and thrown in a box that says "Deep South Wrestling." |

Harry Smith is going to get a Hell of a push when he debuts. It'll probably be to the Intercontinental Championship, but anyone who doesn't think the WWE is going to get on the dick of Smith, is nuts. I'm sorry, but he's a big guy, with talent, with pedigree.
I really want to see him on SmackDown!. He's pretty much guaranteed to be on RAW, but think of what he could do on SmackDown!: namely the work with Chris Benoit. How does this sound for a "Stampede Bulldogs" stable: Chris Benoit (Leader) Harry Smith (Muscle) Paul Burchill (Muscle) TJ Wilson (Cruiserweight) Nattie Neidhart (Valet) |

NO
NO NO Please let's allow Harry Smith and other second and third generation stars to become their own wrestlers. Let's stop rehashing old ideas. The Hart Foundation is dead. Yes it was good while it lasted but it is over. Let Harry Smith have a career without the shadow of Bret and Davey cast over him. |
