One of professional wrestling's greatest lost stars is Teddy Hart, who has constantly proven himself his own worst enemy since entering the business in the mid-90s, flaming out of WWE on several occasions and earning a spot on many a smaller promotion's blacklist for myriad disciplinary issues.

Unquestionably a phenomenally talented wrestler, Teddy has struggled to live up to his famous surname. He spoke about this during an appearance on the Two Man Power Trip podcast earlier this year:-

"I can’t think of any worse pressure cooker. It depends on what kind of diamond you want to turn into in this business. If you want to be a diamond that cracks under pressure and are not considered valuable then I guess no pressure creates weaknesses and flaws. Over the years, I like to think that I’ve been put under a lot of pressure, and in certain aspects maybe I have cracked a little bit."

"It's an honour to be part of the Hart family," added Teddy, who was most recently fired from MLW for various behind-the-scenes problems and behavioural issues.

In 2020, Teddy's life has taken its darkest turn with allegations of assault on ex-girlfriend Maria Manic.
