The rise of the Hart Foundation in Major League Wrestling has been one of the more exciting stories to watch over the past half year. Dominating competition in singles, tags and trios action, their march to the top has been felt in multiple divisions. Now the Hart Foundation’s presence in MLW is guaranteed to continue for years to come as Davey Boy Smith Jr. has officially signed a multi-year deal with MLW.
“Davey is very special,” said MLW CEO Court Bauer. “He’s been a part of MLW dating back to when he was just 18 and I know I speak for fans and the league when I say we’re very excited to see what the big guy does in 2019 and beyond.”
Smith joins Teddy Hart and Brian Pillman Jr., who signed with the league in 2018.
In addition to MLW, Smith will continue to compete in New Japan Pro-Wrestling, where the Bulldog has won the coveted IWGP Tag Team belts 3 times.

I think I read about November that it was getting cancelled. Nothing official I guess

A Tag Team title match has been confirmed for next month's MLW television tapings in Philadelphia.
MLW Tag Team Champions Pentagon Jr. & Fenix will defend their titles against two members of The Hart Foundation (Teddy Hart, Davey Boy Smith Jr. & Brian Pillman Jr.) at the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on Saturday, February 2. The event is being called "MLW Superfight."
The Hart Foundation were supposed to challenge for Pentagon & Fenix's titles last month, but Fenix had to miss MLW's December tapings in Miami due to a groin injury.
MLW announced on Wednesday that Davey Boy Smith Jr. has signed a multi-year deal with them. It was noted that he'll still be wrestling for NJPW. Teddy Hart defeated Dezmond Xavier, Hijo de LA Park, Kotto Brazil, and Gringo Loco in a ladder match to become MLW Middleweight Champion last month.
As was previously announced, MLW World Heavyweight Champion Low Ki will defend his title against Tom Lawlor at Superfight.

Re: Davey Boy Smith Jr. Signs with MLW
They have Low Ki and Teddy Hart in the same promotion, and they're going to have a belt on at least one of them? This does not give me faith in MLW's common sense.

"Interesting" is exactly the sort of code-word people use for "making decisions that are doomed to bite them in the ass at some point" like putting a belt on Low Ki or bringing in Teddy Hart.cero2k wrote: ↑Jan 3rd, '19, 12:10and Konnan, and Sullivan, and L.A.

Re: Davey Boy Smith Jr. Signs with MLW
How in the world does WWE not own a trademark on The Hart Foundation?
Re: Davey Boy Smith Jr. Signs with MLW
"Speaking of the Hart Foundation, MLW filed a trademark on the name back on December 19th, 2018. That trademark was previously held by WWE, but was canceled in May of 1999, the week of Owen Hart’s tragic death.
There have been many incarnations of the Hart Foundation over the years. The name was first used by 2-time WWE tag team champions Bret Hart and the late Jim Neidhart. During the Attitude Era, the Hart Foundation was a faction comprised of Bret Hart, Jim Neidhart, Owen Hart, Davey Boy Smith Sr. and Brian Pillman Sr. Other wrestlers affiliated with other incarnations include Jack Evans, Natalya Neidhart and husband Tyson Kidd."
Have A Nice Day!
