12 Greatest Wrestling Dynasties Of All Time

1. Hart

Though Stu Hart accomplished little as an active wrestler, his work as a promoter and trainer sets him aside as one of the most important figures in wrestling history. He had 12 children, with all but one of them entering the business, and through Stampede Wrestling and the legendary Hart Family Dungeon, he is responsible for training and developing some of the greatest wrestlers of all-time.

Bret, of course, is the family’s biggest star. A multi-time WWE Champion, he was an outstanding in-ring technician who was capable of carrying almost anybody to a good match, and helped raise the bar during one of WWE’s most turbulent eras. His brother Owen, meanwhile, is often held-up as the better all-round performer of the two, and while his sublime skillset never manifested as a World Title run, he was a huge part of WWE programming for many years.

Marriage brought the likes of Jim Neidhart and the British Bulldog into the dynasty, and while the Harts aren’t as prominent as they once were, Natalya and Davey Boy Smith Jr. maintain their relevance in 2017. That's without mentioning the family's less prominent members, like Smith and Bruce, or the myriad of non-relatives who passed through the Dungeon over the years, and thus owe much of their success to Stu Hart.
