One fan had another idea when he decided to rush the stage and attack former WWE champion Bret "The Hitman" Hart as he was being inducted as part of the Hart Foundation tag team with recently deceased partner Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart. WWE cut away from the incident and the screen went to black as Hart stood alongside Natalya, Neidhart's daughter and an active WWE superstar. Tweets from fans in attendance show dozens of current and former WWE superstars -- including Shane McMahon, Xavier Woods, Tyson Kidd and Curtis Axel -- immediately rushing into the ring to save Hart, 61, who has survived both a stroke and cancer battle. Travis Browne, husband to Ronda Rousey and a UFC heavyweight, also appears to have gotten involved, as did Davey Boy Smith Jr., a relative and the son of the British Bulldog. (Smith Jr. wrestles but does not perform for WWE.) The 26-year-old fan was promptly removed from the building and is facing charges from the New York Police Department, according to the Associated Press. After the brief interruption, the show continued as planned. Hart resumed his speech and appeared to be relatively unharmed.
