The late Owen Hart wasthe younger brother of Brett Hart and probably one of the best and most underrated wrestlers to grace the squared circle. Killed at a ppv doing a stunt that he really had no training in. Also worked for a short time as the Blue Blazer. Had a reputation for being a good family man and avid ribber

Owen Hart was a wrestler for wwe. He died in the ring in a tragic accident. Hart fell to his death in Kansas City, Missouri on May 23, 1999, during the WWF's Over the Edge PPV event. He was being lowered into the ring from the rafters of Kemper Arena for a scheduled Intercontinental Title win over The Godfather. He fell 78 feet (24 m) into the ring, smashing his chest on a padded, but still tough, ring turnbuckle.
Owen was transported to the Truman Medical Center in Kansas City, where he was pronounced dead on arrival (he actually died about six minutes after the fall, while still lying in the ring). The cause was later revealed to be internal bleeding from blunt chest trauma. He was 34 years old. The WWF chose to continue the event despite the tragedy, which drew a great deal of criticism over the following weeks, especially as the main event of the emotional evening involved The Undertaker (also known as the "Deadman") winning the WWF Title.
The next night on Monday Night Raw in St. Louis, Missouri, a two-hour televised tribute was broadcast (see RAW is Owen), in which WWF wrestlers and officials paid tribute to Hart.
Owen prematurely left a widow, Martha, and two children, Oje Edward and Athena. Martha Hart settled her wrongful death lawsuit against the WWF for approximately $18 million, and used the funds to establish the Owen Hart Foundation. Martha wrote a book about Owen's life in 2002 called Broken Harts.
