Singles - Honky Tonk Man. (no explanation needed)
Tag - The Hart Foundation. the name said it all, though they didn't last long and he had more exposure with other teams the Hart Foundation is what started it all. Quote:

Definitely Honky Tonk Man, because they were two of a kind. Honky Tonk played a rock n' roller, while Hart was a rock n' roller (lead singer of the Gentrys). To my 7-year-old mind, Honky Tonk really was a rocka-billy and watching Hart dancing and flitting all around him looked to me like a perfectly matched team.
Jimmy Hart was also interesting as a "gnat" to performers like Earthquake and The Natural Disasters, providing movement and excitement to their immobile presence. But it was as a counterpart to Honky Tonk Man that I most closely associate Hart.

I'm not dissing any of you guys (or gals) but you have TOTALLY missed the boat on this one!
The man that should be at the top of the list beyond a shadow of doubt is..... JERRY "THE KING" LAWLER!! Jerry brought Jimmy Hart into the business in the late 70'/early 80's....search them together on YouTube and the proof is in the pudding. Longest running feud in wrestling history, no doubt! If you haven't read Jerry's book, do so. There's more there. |

For singles wrestlers the Honky Tonk Man, for tag teams I'd say The Nasty Boys. I especially remember that nasty boys motor cycle helmet that got used as a foreign object a couple times.

I voted for the Hart Foundation, that was where I first learned of Jimmy Hart. I think an honorable mention should go to the Dungeon of Doom. Obviously its not what Hart is most known for managing, but I really liked that gimmick when it was in its prime.

For me it's Earthquake just ahead of Honky. That angle where Quake attacked Hogan and he was stretchered out with an oxygen mask on as Hart was yelling about Hulkamania being dead through his megaphone will always stay in my mind as a defining moment, especially since Hogan never beat Quake in a one on one PPV match, their feud ended at the Rumble in 91 when they were the last 2 in the match.

The Hart Foundation. No doubt about it.
I have no many fond memories of Jimmy's run as a heel manager. But every time I think of him in a match, I think of Wrestlemania III - The British Bulldogs and Tito Santana w/Matilda versus The Hart Foundation and Danny Davis w/Jimmy Hart. The buildup was SO awesome... Danny Davis allowed the Hart Foundation to face the Bulldogs and use illegal double-team maneuvers to an injured Dynamite Kid, thus forcing the Bulldogs to lose the WWF Tag Team Titles. Jack Tunney (RIP) stripped Danny Davis of his referee powers and made him an active wrestler. It resulted in the WM3 six man tag team match that ended with the Hart Foundation being victorious but Jimmy Hart was mauled by Matilda. It was one of the funniest things I had ever seen. Then, later on in the night, Jimmy was tied up by Jake Roberts and taunted by a snake-carrying Alice Cooper. Man, I miss Jimmy Hart... |

For me it has to be the Honky Tonk Man. The Hart Foundation was a very very close second, but when I think of Jimmy Hart I think coronal, and that nickname cam directly from managing Honky. I also think of jimmy Hart holding up the gold record for honka honka honky love lol. These manager threads are awesome by the way.

It's all about Honky Tonk Man here. I compare this to the reason behind my Fuji/Demolition pick. With Jimmy Hart at his side Honky Tonk Man became the longest reigning IC champion in history, much like Demolition did with the tag titles. Honky was nothing more than a low card Elvis impersonator yet he managed to win the IC title and hang onto it for ages. Jimmy Hart was definitely a key player in that. Hart and Honky were a great tandem and throw in Valentine as well. It just worked and Honky's success pretty much banks on Hart and that is a big reason for my selection.
