Hart Family
The Hart wrestling family is a Canadian family with a significant history within professional wrestling. The patriarch of the family was wrestling legend, WWE Hall of Famer and Order of Canada recipient Stu Hart (1915–2003). An amateur and professional wrestling performer, promoter and trainer, Stu not only owned and operated his own wrestling promotion, Stampede Wrestling, but also trained some of the most well known and successful stars in the contemporary wrestling industry including Edge, Chris Jericho, and Chris Benoit. Two of his sons, Bret and Owen, also achieved fame and success in the World Wrestling Federation (WWF, now WWE), with many of the WWF's biggest storylines in the mid-1990s being built around Bret and Owen and their brothers-in-law.
As of 2012 the only Hart actively working in WWE is Stu's granddaughter Natalie "Natalya" Neidhart, but Bret makes occasional guest appearances while WWE employs Dungeon graduates Tyson Kidd (also Neidhart's long-time boyfriend), and former world champions Chris Jericho, Christian and Mark Henry.
