In the first fall, they got disqualified because of illegal double-teaming and in the second fall, Neidhart was pinned by Smith. Saturday Night's Main Event on May 2nd, 1987, the Foundation defended their tag title against the British Bulldogs in a Two out of three falls match. March 29, 1987, WrestleMania III: Danny Davis & The Hart Foundation defeated The British Bulldogs & Tito Santana Much of this was thanks to Danny Davis who later turned heel. On January 26, 1987, the Hart Foundation defeated the British Bulldogs to capture the Tag titles.

In late 1986, the Hart Foundation started feuding with the British Bulldogs. A very under-appreciated tag-team that deserves to be hailed as one of the all-time greats.

The Hart Foundation run together lasted from 1985–1991 (Often forgotten how long they lasted)Īccording to Bret, he was ready to quit the WWF following a failed cowboy gimmick. With Jim’s brute strength and ability to cut promos coupled with Bret’s technical expertise, they complicated each other perfectly and wrote the blueprint for future duos.īefore we look at some of The Hart Foundation career highlights, I wanted to go over a few notes: Few tag-teams were ever better of more influential than the Hart Foundation.
