One of the greatest tag teams of the 80s and 90s is taking their place among the greats. Earlier this morning, it was confirmed that Bret Hart and Jim “The Anvil” Neidhart are going into the WWE Hall of Fame. Collectively known as the Hart Foundation, Bret and Jim were two-time WWF Tag Team Champions. They faced off against such teams as the British Bulldogs, Strike Force, and The Rockers.

During the Attitude Era, Bret and Anvil would reunite alongside other Hart family members. This group would war with D-Generation X and Stone Cold Steve Austin, protecting Bret’s world title reign. Sadly, Jim Neidhart passed away in August of 2018, making his induction posthumous. The Hart Foundation join D-Generation X, The Honkey Tonk Man, Torrie Wilson and Harlem Heat in this year’s class of inductees.
