My Take
Jim "the Anvil" Neidhart is pure 1980s and 90s wrestling nostalgia for me. The goatee, the cackling laugh, the sheer mass of the man, he was unmistakable. What I appreciate most is that the Hart Foundation, his tag team with real-life brother-in-law Bret Hart, was genuinely great, not just a gimmick pairing. Two WWF Tag Team titles back that up. He came from an athletic background, even college football, and you could see that power translate into the ring. His passing in 2018 closed a chapter on an era I'm fond of. Fans of that golden age of tag team wrestling won't forget him.
