Owen Hart Won’t Be Inducted Into The 2016 WWE Hall Of Fame Class

Smith Hart says that WWE won’t be inducting Owen Hart into the Hall of Fame, and isn’t too pleased about it. Hart took to Facebook and revealed that he learned from Bret Hart that there will be no induction for Owen or Davey Boy Smith and slammed WWE for the decision not to do so, even as he noted that it is due to Martha Hart’s opposition to the idea.

“I just got off the phone with my brother Bret, who called to wish me well,” Hart posted. “In talking to Bret, I can confirm that WWE will NOT be inducting Owen, Davey, Blue Blazer or even as Bret and I suggested, of inducting the entire Hart Foundation as a unit this year in Dallas for their fictional Hall of Fame. This once again proves that WWE’s Hall of Fame is nothing more than profiteering, grandstanding and political BS. It’s a shame, not only for the fans that still fill my inbox annually holding hope, but also for WWE as the task of filling 100,000 plus into Jerry’s world seems near impossible with their vastly depleted roster and horrible creative direction.”

He continued on, saying, “A Hart Foundation induction on its own would not fill the stadium, but I’m sure would help more than the proposed inductions of The Godfather, Jacqueline or JBL (with all due respect). The reason given for the lack of an Owen induction is still our former Sister in law, Martha who still holds a grudge as if the tragedy happened days ago. Personally, I wouldn’t blame Bret or anyone in my family if they boycotted this year’s show.”

Martha Hart, Owen’s widow, has long opposed anything involving Owen and WWE including a Hall of Fame induction. The two sides were locked into a lawsuit for some time, which was settled in 2013. However, her stance on the company hasn’t changed since then and she voiced her opposition to the Owen Hart DVD that was released in December.
