As previously reported this summer, WWE will be releasing a brand new DVD about the life of the late great Owen Hart titled, "Owen: Hart Of Gold." There will be a comprehensive documentary that will serve as the main feature of the DVD/Blu-Ray that is scheduled for release in the United States on December 8 and the United Kingdom on December 7. In addition to the documentary, there will be several of Owen's best matches include as well. The DVD is available as a pre-order on Amazon.com right now. A preview of the documentary was released by WrestlingDVDNetwork.com. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nIUiWmaX1cg Some of the names associated with WWE that comment in the documentary are his brother Bret Hart, brother-in-law Jim Neidhart, Jerry Lawler, Ted Dibiase, Chris Jericho, Triple H, Ron Simmons, Kevin Owens and Daniel Bryan. There were also interviews done with his niece Natalya and her husband Tyson Kidd. There are likely several others as well ranging from people that knew him when he was in WWE and those that were influenced by him (like Owens) growing up. Here's a synopsis of the DVD:
"Owen Hart was the youngest of 12 from the famous Hart Wrestling Family, and one of the most likable personalities in sports entertainment, Owen Hart was a champion who won the hearts of fans around the world. For the first time ever, hear from his brothers, sisters, friends, and colleagues as they fondly look back on the life and career of one of sports entertainments greatest WWE Superstars!"
As we have documented in the past, Owen's widow Martha Hart does not support the DVD and does not want it to be made. WWE is obviously aware of that, but is going through with it anyway.
