» David Hart Smith was raised around some of the greatest figures to set foot in the ring. His father was "The British
|
» Bulldog" Davey Boy Smith. His uncles include the "Excellence of Execution," Bret "The Hitman" Hart, Owen Hart and
|
» Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart. And let us not forget that his grandfather is the legendary Stu Hart. Smith began training
|
» as a child and debuted in Calgary as a professional wrestler at the tender age of 15 years old. He competed in
|
» Canada before appearing in Japan and England. On the October 22, 2007 edition of Raw, Smith debuted in WWE and
|
» defeated another Superstar from a famed bloodline, Carlito. The second generation wrestler's success would be short-lived
|
» as he was suspended less than three weeks later for 30 days due to a violation of the company's Substance Abuse and
|
» and Drug Testing Policy alongside fellow Superstar Chris Masters. Following his return to action, Smith would primarily
|
» wrestle on Heat. In March 2008, Smith adopted the ring name "The Canadian Bulldog" and began wrestling as a tweener,
|
» alternating between face and heel roles. On the May 5, 2008 edition of Raw, Smith would be written off of television with
|
» John Bradshaw Layfield laying waste to him, thus resulting in a stretcher job. The following month, Smith was drafted to
|
» SmackDown in the 2008 Supplemental Draft. Smith, however, returned to Florida Championship Wrestling on August 26,
|
» without making his SmackDown debut. He made the decision to return to FCW on a full-time basis so he could mature,
|
» and put more effort into developing his in-ring work and his personality. On October 30, Smith won the FCW Florida Tag
|
» Team Championship with TJ Wilson, defeating Joe Hennig and Sebastian Slater, but they lost it to Tyler Reks and Johnny
|
» Curtis on December 11, 2008 at a Florida Championship Wrestling television taping. On April 15, 2009, Smith was drafted
|
» to the ECW brand as part of the 2009 Supplemental Draft, without making any appearances on SmackDown. Less than
|
» one month later, Smith, under the new ring name of David Hart Smith, would make his much anticipated return to World
|
» Wrestling Entertainment programming on an episode of ECW on Sci Fi, brutally attacking Finlay during his match with
|
» Tyson Kidd. Following the match, Natalya raised the hands of both Smith and Kidd, symbolizing the much anticipated
|
» formation of The New Hart Foundation — or The Hart Trilogy as they're now being referred to — in a WWE squared circle.
|
» Smith's offensive arsenal is a blend of moves for the new millennium and a tribute to his legendary father, "The British
|
» Bulldog" Davey Boy Smith. He has seen action against the likes of Finlay, Santino Marella, "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan, John
|
» Cena, Umaga, John Bradshaw Layfield, Mr. Kennedy and William Regal. In a brief period of time, Smith has been in the
|
» ring with Legends, established Superstars and impressive up-and-comers. Suffice it to say, this wrestler is one to watch.
