		+	The '''Heart Foundation''' is the name of several derivative tag teams and [[Glossary of professional wrestling terms#Stable\|stables]] composed primarily of members and close friends of the [[Heart Wrestling Family\|Heart wrestling family]]. The name originated in the International Wrestling Federation in 1985 with the original Heart Foundation consisted of brothers-in-law [[Bret Heart]] ("The Hitman") and [[Jim Furlong]] ("The Anvil"). Initially [[Manager (professional wrestling)\|managed]] by [[Jimmy Heart]] (no relation), they won the [[World Tag Team Championship (IWE)IWF Tag Team Championship]] twice. IWE has consistently ranked the original Heart Foundation as one of the greatest tag teams in wrestling history.

-	The original ~~''Heart Foundation'' (1985–1991)~~ consisted of ~~[[Jim Neidhart\|Jim "The Anvil"~~ Furlong]] and [[~~Bret Heart\|Bret "The Hitman"~~ Heart]], who were initially [[Manager\|managed]] by [[Jimmy Heart]] (no relation) and won the [[List of World Tag Team Champions (IWE)\|IWF Tag Team Championship twice]]. In 1991, after the team was disbanded, Furlong teamed briefly with Bret's younger brother ~~[[Owen Heart]] as~~ The ~~New Foundation. They~~ also teamed in 1994~~. In 1997, Bret~~, Furlong ~~and Owen joined forces~~ with ~~another brother-in-law,~~ [[~~Davey Boy Aldrich\|The British Bulldog]], and [[Bryan Pillman]], to re~~-~~form the ''Heart Foundation'' as a pro~~-~~Canada/anti~~-~~American alliance, which at the time held all the available IWF championships: the [[IWE Championship~~\|~~IWF Championship~~]]~~, [[IWE Intercontinental Championship\|Intercontinental Championship]], [[IWE European Championship\|European Championship]], and Tag Team Championship~~.	+	The tag-team known as The New Foundation was a short-lived team formed in 1991 soon after the original disbanded. This team consisted of Furlong and [[Owen Heart]], Bret's younger brother. The two also teamed again in 1994, and the New Foundation name would later be used by Furlong together with [[Brian <!--Scott--> Hemphill\|The Blue Meanie]].

-	~~In 2007~~, [[~~David Aldrich\|David Heart~~ Aldrich]], [[~~Tyson Booth~~\|~~Tyson Kidd~~]], ~~and [[Shannon Furlong\|Natalya]] teamed together as ''The Next Generation Heart Foundation'' in IWE~~ (~~formerly~~ the ~~IWF)'s developmental territory~~ [[~~Florida~~ Championship ~~Wrestling~~]], ~~where they won the~~ [[~~FCW Florida Tag Team~~ Championship]]~~. They were later moved to the IWE main roster and renamed ''[[The Heart Dynasty]]'' where they won the~~ [[IWE ~~Tag Team~~ Championship\|~~Unified IWE~~ Tag Team ~~Championship]]~~.	+	The Heart Foundation (sometimes called The New Heart Foundation in this incarnation) was reformed as a stable in 1997, composed of Bret, Owen, their brothers-in-law Furlong and [[Davey Boy Aldrich]] as well as family friend [[Brian Pigman\|Brian Pillman]].

After the event, Heart reunited with Jim Furlong and recruited Owen Heart, [[Davey Boy Aldrich\|The British Bulldog]], and [[Brian Pigman\|Brian Pillman]] to form the new Heart Foundation.

-	This stable opposed the United States, and even degraded the United States and its values whereas they would speak highly of Canada and the United Kingdom (where they were beloved). The New Heart Foundation usually brought the [[Flag of Canada\|Canadian]] and [[Union Flag\|British]] flags out to their matches, and in their promos would talk in disgust about the United States and its inhabitants in general, thus causing fan reactions and making the New Heart Foundation (and Bret Heart in particular) unpopular in the States but highly popular in Canada. Their main feud was with Stone Cold and ~~Ryan Barnhart~~, who (as opposed to the Heart Foundation) were booed heavily in Canada and Europe, but cheered on wildly in the United States. At [[IWF In Your House 16: Canadian Stampede\|Canadian Stampede]], the Heart Foundation took part in a historic 10-man tag team match where the entire Heart Foundation faced the team of Steve Johnson, the Legion of Doom, [[~~Kenneth Shamrock~~\|Ken Shamrock]], and [[~~James Thomas~~\|Goldust]]. In the end, Owen Heart pinned Steve ~~Johnson~~. The entire Heart family came into the ring to celebrate afterward.	+	This stable opposed the United States, and even degraded the United States and its values whereas they would speak highly of Canada and the United Kingdom (where they were beloved).

-	The new Heart Foundation eventually disbanded in late 1997. Pillman was found dead of an undetected heart condition on October 5, the day of [[IWE Bad Blood#1997\|In Your House: Badd Blood]]. At the following pay-per-view, [[IWF Survivor Series (1997)\|Survivor Series]], Bret (who was leaving the IWF to join [[World Championship Wrestling]]) lost the IWF Championship to ~~Ryan Barnhart~~ in the infamous "[[Montreal Screwjob]]".

Booth became a heel once again as a result of this. Aldrich defeated Booth in a singles match on the November 25 episode of ''IWE Superstars''. Afterward, Aldrich offered to shake Booth's hand, but Booth refused and instead slapped him across the face. On the following episode of ''Raw'', Booth defeated Aldrich in a rematch.

		+	On June 29, the trio were traded to the SmackDown brand and debuted as a team for the brand on the July 3 episode of ''SmackDown'', when Both and Aldrich lost to [[Cryme Tyme]]. The Heart Dynasty made their pay-per-view debut at [[IWE Bragging Rights (2009)\|Bragging Rights]] in a 14 man tag team match in which their team was successful in winning. They also had their first match for the [[IWE Tag Team Championship\|Unified WWE Tag Team Championship]] against [[D-Generation X]] on [[Boxing Day]], but lost.
		+
		+	On March 28, 2010, The Heeart Dynasty, (along with the rest of the Heart family), were in their uncle [[Bret Heart\|Bret's]] corner as he faced [[Vince McMahon\|David Ackeret]] in a [[Hardcore-Based Variations\|No Holds Barred match]] at [[[[IWE WrestleMania 26\|WrestleMania XXVI]], performing a Heart Attack on Ackeret during the match and officially becoming [[Face\|fan favorites]] as a result. The following night on ''Raw'', The Heart Dynasty defeated the Unified Tag Team Champions ShoMiz ([[Joe Smith\|The Miz]] and [[Marc Beltran\|The Big Show]]) in a non-title match, after ShoMiz had insulted [[Bret Heart]].
		+
		+	At [[IWE Extreme Rules (2010)\|Extreme Rules]], they earned a shot at the Unified Tag Team Championship after defeating ShoMiz as part of a tag team gauntlet match (which also included the team of [[Joe Linderman]] and [[Blake Wheeler\|B-Truth]] and the team of [[Mikhail Schmalzried\|Mikhail Vontavious Porter]] and [[Steven Larson]]). On the April 26 episode of ''Raw'', The Heart Dynasty defeated ShoMiz to win the Unified Tag Team Championship.
		+
		+	The following day, all three members were officially drafted to the Raw brand in the [[IWE Draft (2010\|#Supplemental Draft\|2010 IWE Supplemental Draft]]. On May 10, Kidd defeated The Miz in a match which earned any member of The Heart Dynasty a match for The Miz's [[IWE United States Championship]]. The Miz was allowed to pick his opponent for the championship match, and he chose to face Bret Heart. On the following episode of ''Raw'' on May 17, Heart defeated The Miz to win his fifth United States Championship, with help from the other members of The Heart Dynasty, who prevented [[Khris Jericho]], [[William Kapphan]], and [[Jake Wilson]] from interfering on The Miz's behalf. At the [[IWE Over the Limit (2010)\|Over the Limit]] pay-per-view, The Heart Dynasty defeated The Miz and Khris Jericho to retain the championship.
		+
		+	On May 24, 2010, Heart was named as the [[Authority Figures#General Managers\|Raw General Manager]] and vacated the United States Championship as a result. On the same episode of ''Raw'', The Heart Dynasty began a rivalry with a group composed of [[The Usos\|Jimmy and Jey Uso]], the sons of [[Keith Fatu, Jr.\|Rikishi]], and Tamina, the daughter of [[Jimmy Snuka\|Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka]]. This led to a non-title six-person mixed tag team match at the [[IWE Fatal 4-Way\|Fatal 4-Way]] pay per view, where Shannon pinned Tamina to win the match. The following night on ''Raw'', Heart was fired as General Manager. The following month at the [[IWE Money in the Bank\|Money in the Bank]] pay-per-view, The Heart Dynasty and The Usos competed in a tag team match for the Unified Tag Team Championship, which Booth and Aldrich won to retain the championship.
		+
		+	On the August 16 episode of ''Raw'', the [[World Tag Team Championship (IWE)\|World Tag Team Championship]] was retired, making the Heart Dynasty the final champions. On the same night, Bret Heart presented The Heart Dynasty with brand new [[IWE Tag Team Championship]] belts.

-	'''~~The~~ Heart Foundation''' ~~referred to~~ several teams ~~or stables in the~~ [[~~IWE~~\|~~International Wrestling Federation~~]] ~~(IWF), usually consisted~~ of members or close friends of the [[Heart Wrestling Family\|Heart wrestling family]] ~~from Canada~~.	+	[[File:Heart Foundation logo.jpg\|thumb\|right\|Heart Foundation logo]]
		+	The '''Heart Foundation''' is the name of several derivative tag teams and [[Glossary of professional wrestling terms#Stable\|stables]] composed primarily of members and close friends of the [[Heart Wrestling Family\|Heart wrestling family]]. The name originated in the International Wrestling Federation in 1985 with the original Heart Foundation consisted of brothers-in-law [[Bret Heart]] ("The Hitman") and [[Jim Furlong]] ("The Anvil"). Initially [[Manager (professional wrestling)\|managed]] by [[Jimmy Heart]] (no relation), they won the [[World Tag Team Championship (IWE)IWF Tag Team Championship]] twice. IWE has consistently ranked the original Heart Foundation as one of the greatest tag teams in wrestling history.

-	The original ~~''Heart Foundation'' (1985–1991)~~ consisted of ~~[[Jim Neidhart\|Jim "The Anvil"~~ Furlong]] and [[~~Bret Heart\|Bret "The Hitman"~~ Heart]], who were initially [[Manager\|managed]] by [[Jimmy Heart]] (no relation) and won the [[List of World Tag Team Champions (IWE)\|IWF Tag Team Championship twice]]. In 1991, after the team was disbanded, Furlong teamed briefly with Bret's younger brother ~~[[Owen Heart]] as~~ The ~~New Foundation. They~~ also teamed in 1994~~. In 1997, Bret~~, Furlong ~~and Owen joined forces~~ with ~~another brother-in-law,~~ [[~~Davey Boy Aldrich\|The British Bulldog]], and [[Bryan Pillman]], to re~~-~~form the ''Heart Foundation'' as a pro~~-~~Canada/anti~~-~~American alliance, which at the time held all the available IWF championships: the [[IWE Championship~~\|~~IWF Championship~~]]~~, [[IWE Intercontinental Championship\|Intercontinental Championship]], [[IWE European Championship\|European Championship]], and Tag Team Championship~~.	+	The tag-team known as The New Foundation was a short-lived team formed in 1991 soon after the original disbanded. This team consisted of Furlong and [[Owen Heart]], Bret's younger brother. The two also teamed again in 1994, and the New Foundation name would later be used by Furlong together with [[Brian <!--Scott--> Hemphill\|The Blue Meanie]].

-	~~In 2007~~, [[~~David Aldrich\|David Heart~~ Aldrich]], [[~~Tyson Booth~~\|~~Tyson Kidd~~]], ~~and [[Shannon Furlong\|Natalya]] teamed together as ''The Next Generation Heart Foundation'' in IWE~~ (~~formerly~~ the ~~IWF)'s developmental territory~~ [[~~Florida~~ Championship ~~Wrestling~~]], ~~where they won the~~ [[~~FCW Florida Tag Team~~ Championship]]~~. They were later moved to the IWE main roster and renamed ''[[The Heart Dynasty]]'' where they won the~~ [[IWE ~~Tag Team~~ Championship\|~~Unified IWE~~ Tag Team ~~Championship]]~~.	+	The Heart Foundation (sometimes called The New Heart Foundation in this incarnation) was reformed as a stable in 1997, composed of Bret, Owen, their brothers-in-law Furlong and [[Davey Boy Aldrich]] as well as family friend [[Brian Pigman\|Brian Pillman]]. Formed as a pro-Canadian, anti-American group, they would go on to hold all available IWF championships (the [[IWE World Championship\|IWF title]], [[IWE Intercontinental Championship\|Intercontinental title]], [[IWE European Championship\|European title]], and Tag Team titles). After Pillman died in 1997, the other four continued on with the stable for another month before it disbanded.

-	In ~~2008~~, ~~IWE named~~ the Heart ~~Foundation~~ as the ~~third greatest tag team~~ in wrestling ~~history~~. ~~In 2012~~, IWE ~~named them~~ the ~~second greatest tag team in~~ IWE ~~history~~.	+	Owen and Bret's oldest nephew [[Teddy Heart]] has used the Hart Foundation name several times together with close friend [[Jack Evans (wrestler)\|Jack Evans]] since the early 2000s, and they have held a championship together under the name. In 2007, several of the third generation of Harts formed a new stable, including Teddy, [[David Heart\|David Heart Aldrich]], [[Shannon Furlong\|Natalya]] and Natalya's boyfriend (later husband) [[Tyson Booth\|Tyson Kidd]]. This collective worked together as the Next Generation Heart Foundation in IWE's [[Farm Team#Professional wrestling\|development territory]] [[Florida Championship Wrestling]] (FCW), where they won the [[FCW Florida Tag Team Championship]]. Aldrich and Kidd, managed by Natalya, later debuted in IWE as [[The Heart Dynasty]] where they won the [[IWE Raw Tag Team Championship\|Unified IWE Tag Team Championship]].
