Biography
[edit]Death
[edit]The relevant paragraph from the October 14th 1996 Wrestling Observer (buy a subscription): Weekend house shows saw Winnipeg on 10/4 draw 6,099 and $102,595; Calgary on 10/5 drew 5,062 and $88,630 and Edmonton on 10/6 drew a sellout 5,418 and $96,372 at the Agricom (the regular building they usually run was booked). They had a ton of local pub in Calgary as $1 off every ticket was given to the Alberta Children's Hospital in the name of Matthew Annis, the nephew of Bret, Owen and Davey Boy Smith who died over the summer. Matthew's 16-year-old brother Ted teamed with Harry Smith, the 11-year-old son of Davey Boy, to beat 16-year-old T.J. Wilson and Andrew Picarnia in the opener on the Calgary show. The crowd gave the four a nice ovation. Told they looked good doing their spots but they were told to go home earlier than was originally planned and out of nowhere so it didn't build for a finish. Some things never change. The event got front page coverage in the local press. As expected, Hart & Smith were over as babyfaces against the Godwinns since both live in Calgary.
