Bret Sergeant Hart (born July 2, 1957) is a Canadian on-screen personality, writer and retired professional and amateur wrestler currently signed to World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE), appearing as the General Manager of the Raw brand. Throughout his professional wrestling career, he wrestled under the persona of Bret "Hit Man" Hart.[3] He is also known by the monikers "The Pink and Black Attack", in reference to his ring attire,[4][5] and "The Excellence of Execution."[3] He is a member of the Hart wrestling family.
Following success in amateur wrestling tournaments in high school and throughout Calgary,[6] Hart debuted in professional wrestling in 1976 with his father, WWE Hall of Famer Stu Hart's promotion, Stampede Wrestling. In 1984, he signed with the World Wrestling Federation (WWF; now WWE) and was soon paired with future brother-in-law Jim Neidhart to form the successful tag team The Hart Foundation, while also enjoying a singles career. When WWF management separated the team in 1991, Hart continued his singles career, winning his first WWF Championship the following year. WWE has asserted that "in the mid ’90s, there were very few, if any, superstars as popular as Bret "Hitman" Hart."[7] Hart left the WWF for a lucrative World Championship Wrestling (WCW) contract following the Montreal Screwjob in 1997, where he enjoyed continued championship success until his initial retirement in 2000, due to injury. He continued to make non-wrestling appearances in promotions such as World Wrestling All-Stars (WWA), One Pro Wrestling (1PW) and Ring of Honor (ROH) for the remainder of the decade. He returned to WWE for live appearances and professional wrestling matches in 2010, achieving further championship success. Described by owner Vince McMahon as the greatest technical wrestler and storyteller in the history of the business,[8] Hart competed as both a villain and a fan favorite during his professional wrestling career and is widely regarded within the industry as one of the greatest professional wrestlers of all time.[3][6] Several noted professional wrestlers have named Hart as one of their favorite opponents.[9][10][11][12][13][14]
Hart held thirty-two championships in various promotions during his professional wrestling career, and is recognized by WWE as a seven-time World Champion: a five-time WWF Champion[15] and two-time WCW World Heavyweight Champion,[16] and the second WWF Triple Crown Champion.[17] Also a five-time WCW/WWE United States Champion (his four WCW reigns being the most in the history of the organization), he is tied for most reigns in history.[18] In addition to championships, he is the 1994 Royal Rumble co-winner (with Lex Luger), and the only two-time King of the Ring in WWE history, having won the 1991 tournament and the first King of the Ring pay-per-view in 1993. One of sports-entertainment's biggest names,[3] Hart was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2006 by former on screen rival Stone Cold Steve Austin.
