Edward "Teddy" Annis (born February 2, 1980), is a Canadian professional wrestler, better known by his ring name Teddy Hart. He is currently working for the Mexican promotion Asistencia Asesoría y Administración and on the American independent circuit. He has also wrestled for the short-lived Wrestling Society X, Jersey All Pro Wrestling, and Dragon Gate USA. He operates a wrestling school in Edmonton. He is the son of Georgia Hart and wrestler B.J. Annis.
Hart achieved a degree of fame when he became the youngest wrestler to be signed to the World Wrestling Federation (now WWE). His subsequent release and controversial actions while wrestling on the independent circuit have earned him a measure of infamy.
Annis is the oldest male grandchild of Stu and Helen Hart. His mother is of Greek descent through her maternal grandmother and Irish through her maternal grandfather. His maternal grandfather was of Scots-Irish, English and Scottish descent.
Annis grew up with three siblings, two sisters named Annie and Angela, as well as a younger brother named Matt who died of Necrotizing fasciitis in 1996.
Hart debuted in July 1995 at Rockyford, Alberta, where he teamed up with his brother, Matthew, and defeated his cousin, Harry Smith, and TJ Wilson. In the Calgary-based Stampede Wrestling promotion, Hart teamed with Smith, Wilson and Jack Evans. In 2000, he wrestled for and was a key creative figure in the Matrats promotion. At the age of 16, he wrestled in the opening match of a World Wrestling Federation house show in Calgary, teaming with his cousin, Harry Smith, against Andrew Picarnic and T.J. Wilson (Tyson Kidd) as a tribute to his brother, Matthew, who had recently died.
