Joey Styles interviewed WWE Hall Of Famer Bret “The Hitman” Hart on what would have been the 100th birthday of his father, the legendary Stu Hart. During the interview, Hart commented on the status of the legendary Hart Dungeon.
When asked who some of the first competitors that his father trained were, Hart said, “Nikolai Volkoff was one of the first guys who came out of The Dungeon. He was a teenager when he got here. He was just a big, strong, heavy kid. I remember talking to Nikolai many times in the basement and watching my dad stretch him. [Former AWA World Heavyweight Champion] Gene Kiniski was also trained by my dad.”
Hart also spoke about the status of The Dungeon itself.
“The house is occupied by three different families,” said Hart. “There are three condominiums in the one dwelling. It’s quite an upscale area. It’s cozy, but I have no desire to see it. It’s not the same house that I remember. The Dungeon doesn’t exist anymore. It’s just a room.”
