Ali trying to hide all evidence of wrestling is maybe the most relatable I’ve ever found him (also, his wife is adorable).

Rest In Peace, Jim “The Anvil” Neidhart [February 8th, 1955 - August 13th, 2018]

When you think about great professional wrestlers, one of the questions you have to ask yourself is if the wrestlers that come to mind were great in various ways. Could they brawl, could they be technical, were they quick, would they work well as both a tag team wrestler or in singles? The late Jim “The Anvil” Neidhart proved that with multiple partners and in singles action, he held his own in the squared circle, traveling from one side of the world to the other and taking on any opponent he could grapple with. Unfortunately, Neidhart passed away yesterday at the age of 63.

As the very last trainee of the late Stu Hart, Neidhart entered professional wrestling whilst also being known as third in the world at shot put. He was being groomed to starting his career as a member of the Oakland Raiders in the NFL when he decided to visit the Hart Family Dungeon to get trained to become a professional wrestler. After a run with both the Raiders and the Cowboys, who won the Superbowl in 1978, Neidhart switched his focus solely to professional wrestler, where it didn’t take him long to gain a name for himself.

Stampede Wrestling was where Neidhart would kick his career off, winning tag team gold with Hercules Ayala and Mr. Hito in the early 1980s. Neidhart gained the nickname “The Anvil” by winning an anvil toss, throwing an anvil over 11 feet. After traveling to Georgia, where Neidhart would win tag team gold yet again with King Kong Bundy and Butch Reed (respectively), he would debut for Championship Wrestling from Florida where he became the NWA Southern Heavyweight Champion. In 1985, Stu Hart sold Stampede Wrestling to Vince McMahon, who would acquire both Jim Neidhart and Stu’s son Bret Hart. The two would form a tag team known as The Hart Foundation, which would become one of the WWF’s most successful duos, winning the WWF World Tag Team Championships on two occasions.

Neidhart’s legacy continues with his daughter, former WWE Divas Champion and former WWE SmackDown Women’s Champion Natalya. Jim was a powerful professional wrestler and a well-liked athlete among his peers, many of whom have mourned his loss over the last 24 hours. Rest in peace, Anvil.
