Notes

“Under the Mat” is a controversial tell-all memoir of professional wrestling and life in Canada’s Hart wrestling family. Diana Hart’s stories are full of wrestling personalities: her father Stu, her brothers Owen and Bret, and her (now, ex-) husband Davey Smith (to say nothing of Andre the Giant, Hulk Hogan, and Vince McMahon). From Calgary’s Stampede Wrestling to the high-profile World Wrestling Federation, Hart offers a personal look into an ever-changing world of athleticism, promotion, spectacle, and high stakes. The book’s accounts of personal feuds, infidelity, drugs, and crime resulted in further Hart family drama when a series of lawsuits eventually caused “Under the Mat” to be pulled from publication.
