Owen Hart and the British Bulldog were a professional wrestling tag team in the World Wrestling Federation and are members of the Hart wrestling family.
The team of brothers-in-law, Hart and Bulldog debuted on March 31, 1996 at the twelfth WrestleMania event as members of James E. Cornette's Camp stable along with Vader and went on to defeat Yokozuna, Ahmed Johnson and Jake Roberts. On In Your House 7, Hart and Bulldog defeated Johnson and Roberts. They teamed up with Vader again on In Your House 9 to defeat Ahmed Johnson, Sycho Sid and Shawn Michaels. On In Your House 10, Hart and Bulldog defeated The Smoking Gunns to win the WWF Tag Team Championship.
After winning the World Tag Team Champions, Hart and Bulldog started a feud with The Smoking Gunns whom they went on to defeat at In Your House 11 in a title match. On In Your House 12, they defended their title for a second time against (Fake) Razor Ramon and (Fake) Diesel. Following In Your House 12, Clarence Mason became their manager. They started a feud with Doug Furnas and Phil LaFon over the World Tag Team Championship after losing to them in a 4-on-4 survivor series match at Survivor Series. This led to a title defense at In Your House 13 against Furnas and LaFon which Hart and Bulldog lost by disqualification and thus retained the titles.
