Misc

There is no mention of his time with the Gentrys and their number one song "keep on dancin'". That should at least be mentioned before his "early career" - Sorry.. I don't know how to ad a header or sign this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.76.9.246 (talk) 14:16, 19 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The birthdate in the article doesnt match the birthdate in the data box(two different years, 1943 and 1944).

Jimmy & KIMONA???

There was a story going around a few years ago that Jimmy Hart and Kimona Wanalaya (of ECW fame) were engaged to be married. But after a few days, the story disappeared and there was never any update. Is anyone aware whether there was an engagement/wedding, or was the story a "rib?"--MDK

Jimmy Hart has been married to the same woman since 1968. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.111.89.145 (talk) 04:19, 7 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Death?

Sources please

Relation to the Harts

Is he related to the Harts? It is not stated specifically that he is or is not. We need to be more clear. —Preceding unsigned comment added by AD Double J (talk • contribs) 19:16, 12 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think it is doubtful. He was from a totally different region than the Hart wrestling family and entered wrestling in the Memphis territory through his involvement with the Memphis music scene. In Bret Hart's WWE-produced DVD documentary, Bret says it was his idea to include Jimmy Hart in the Hart Foundation because Jimmy's last name was Hart, but Bret did not mention Jimmy Hart being related to the Hart wrestling family. If it could be verified and sourced that they are related, then I suppose it is relevant. Grammarian10 (talk) 05:24, 20 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I doubt they are related. I'll see if I can find sources to back it up. Chrissytina515 (talk) 03:57, 21 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

High School with Lawler

He is six years older than Jerry. Unless people could be held back three times back then in Memphis I don't believe it can be true. If it is his birthdate might be wrong.OsFan2 (talk) 22:53, 19 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

More Misc.

I agree that this article is sorely lacking by not at all mentioning The Gentrys.
I had read multiple times that Hart's debut in Memphis Wrestling occurred on August 5, 1979. Unfortunately, it was nowhere which translates out to an easy source for this page. I'll let you know if I come across it again.
I had also read (or viewed on DVD) numerous references to Treadwell High School and that both Hart and Lawler attended there. I also seem to recall Lawler saying that Hart was several years older than him, and that in high school, Hart was viewed as sort of an idol due to him coming from Treadwell to the national spotlight while Lawler was still there.

There's no mention of him appearing in the Naked Women's Wrestling League. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.81.99.87 (talk) 20:02, 22 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Canada references

I know he's called the mouth of the (American) south, but didn't he also say he was Canadian and used/had several references to it, Dino Bravo, Canadian Earthquake, etc.

Orphaned references in Jimmy Hart

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Jimmy Hart's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "WWEProfile":

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 05:57, 8 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Why is Brian Knobbs called Hulk Hogan's wife in this page?

."^[1] Hart, as well as Hogan's wife Brian Knobbs, were a part of the band The Wrestling Boot Band and helped write and sing many of the album's songs.^[1]

I get Hogan and Knobbs are close but this is like.. almost vandalism, or a bad typo. JoshuaJonW (talk) 01:28, 28 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I read Hulk Hogan's article and the people listed in the "Hulk Rules" album are merely Hogan, Jimmy Hart, Linda Hogan, and J.J Maguire. so this is definitely some form of vandalism or typo. JoshuaJonW (talk) 06:48, 16 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Doula?

The first paragraph states that he is a doula? Is there a source for this? I googled it and didn't find anything. Dicentis (talk) 09:10, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
