World Wrestling Entertainment / WWE

Developmental territories (2006–2009)

Kidd in May 2009.

Wilson signed with World Wrestling Entertainment in November 2006 at the age of 26,[19] after receiving impressive reviews from former WWE trainer Bill DeMott. He moved to WWE developmental territory Deep South Wrestling (DSW) in February 2007 with fellow signee and girlfriend Nattie Neidhart.[3][19] When DSW and WWE parted ways, Wilson relocated to Tampa, Florida to train in the WWE developmental facility Florida Championship Wrestling. In late 2007, he worked with Harry Smith, Nattie Neidhart, Teddy Hart, and Ted DiBiase, Jr. as the Next Generation Hart Foundation.[1]

On December 1, 2007, he won the FCW Southern Heavyweight Championship by defeating Afa, Jr. in a ladder match.[20] He lost it to Ted DiBiase, Jr. on December 18.[21] In mid 2008, he began teaming with Smith again, and the two were managed by Natalya (Nattie Neidhart).[22] On October 30, they won the FCW Florida Tag Team Championship,[22] but they lost it to Tyler Reks and Johnny Curtis on December 11, 2008 at the FCW television taping.[7]

The Hart Dynasty and Tag Team Champion (2009–2010)

Wilson made his WWE television debut on the February 10, 2009, episode of ECW on Sci Fi managed by real-life girlfriend Natalya, under the name Tyson Kidd, defeating a local wrestler, Bao Nguyen.[23] Although Natalya was managing Kidd on ECW, she was still officially a member of the SmackDown brand until April 15, 2009, when she was drafted to ECW as part of the 2009 Supplemental Draft to join Kidd.[24] On the May 12 ECW, Kidd's match with Finlay was interrupted by DH Smith, now using the name David Hart Smith, who attacked Finlay to aid Kidd.[25] Kidd, Smith and Neidhart formed The Hart Trilogy, which was later changed to The Hart Dynasty on the May 26 ECW.[26][27]

On June 29, The Hart Dynasty were traded to the SmackDown brand.[28] They began an on and off feud with Cryme Tyme in July and the feud ended in October. At the Bragging Rights pay-per-view in October, Kidd and Smith competed in a seven-on-seven tag match with Chris Jericho, Kane, Finlay, Matt Hardy and R-Truth as Team SmackDown to defeat Team Raw.[29] The Hart Dynasty got a title match for the Unified WWE Tag Team Championship on the December 25 SmackDown against D-Generation X, but were unsuccessful. They started a feud with Matt Hardy and The Great Khali on the January 22, 2010 SmackDown. The feud ended with each team trading wins against each other.

The Hart Dynasty turned face at WrestleMania XXVI, helping Bret Hart during his match against Vince McMahon, and the following night on Raw they defeated the Unified WWE Tag Team Champions ShoMiz (The Big Show and The Miz) in a non-title match after The Miz insulted Hart.[30][31] They earned a Unified Tag Team Championship match at the Extreme Rules pay-per-view by defeating ShoMiz in a tag team gauntlet match (which also included the team of John Morrison and R-Truth and the team of Montel Vontavious Porter and Mark Henry).[32] At the 2010 WWE Draft on April 26, The Hart Dynasty, accompanied by Natalya and Hart, defeated ShoMiz to win the Unified Tag Team Championship, when Kidd made The Miz submit to the Sharpshooter.[8][9][33]

The following day, all three members of The Hart Dynasty were moved to the Raw brand as part of the Supplemental Draft.[34] On the May 10 Raw, he defeated The Miz to earn Bret Hart a match for The Miz's WWE United States Championship, and the following week The Hart Dynasty helped Hart to win the championship.[35][36] At Over the Limit, they retained the Unified WWE Tag Team Championship against Chris Jericho and The Miz.[37] The following night, on the May 24 Raw, they were attacked by The Usos (Jimmy and Jey) and Tamina after a match, provoking a feud between the two trios.[38][39] At Fatal 4-Way, they defeated The Usos and Tamina in a six-person mixed tag team match when Natalya pinned Tamina, and Smith and Kidd defeated The Usos at Money in the Bank to retain the championship.[40][41] At Night of Champions, The Hart Dynasty lost the WWE Tag Team Championship to Cody Rhodes and Drew McIntyre in a Tag Team Turmoil match which also involved The Usos, Vladimir Kozlov and Santino Marella, and the team of Evan Bourne and Mark Henry.[42]

Various feuds and NXT's Pro (2011–2012)

After a failed attempt to regain the championship, in which Kidd was pushed off balance during their double-team Hart Attack move, Kidd and DH Smith began to have a falling out with one another. This culminated on the November 15 Raw, when Kidd turned heel,[43] refusing to tag in and attacking Smith during a match for the WWE Tag Team Championship against The Nexus (Justin Gabriel and Heath Slater).[44] The following week, Kidd faced John Morrison in a King of the Ring qualifying match, but was unsuccessful.[45] On the December 2 WWE Superstars, Kidd lost to Smith in a singles match. Afterward, Smith offered a handshake, but Kidd slapped Smith instead.[46] On the next Raw, Kidd defeated Smith in a rematch, during which he was accompanied by a bodyguard, later revealed as Jackson Andrews.[47][48] Andrews ceased appearing as Kidd's bodyguard after Mark Henry performed his finisher, the World's Strongest Slam, on Andrews during the December 27 Raw.[49]

On April 26, 2011, Kidd returned to the SmackDown brand as part of the 2011 supplemental draft.[50] He had his first match back for the brand on the May 6 SmackDown, but lost to Sin Cara.[51] On the May 12 Superstars, Kidd debuted Michael Hayes as his manager as he defeated Trent Barreta.[52] Their alliance was short-lived however, as on the following Superstars, Hayes slapped Kidd after Kidd lost to Yoshi Tatsu.[53] Armando Estrada and Matt Striker managed Kidd on the May 26 and June 2 episodes of Superstars respectively, and Kidd defeated Barreta on both occasions.[54][55] On the June 9 Superstars, Kidd appeared with his fourth manager in as many weeks, Vickie Guerrero but lost to Yoshi Tatsu.[56] On the next Superstars, Kidd received yet another manager in JTG, but lost again, this time to Kane.[57]

Kidd was Lucky Cannon's Pro on NXT Redemption. Cannon was eliminated on the June 14 NXT, the third Rookie eliminated.[58] A week later, Kidd shaved off his signature tuft of hair.[59] Kidd then feuded with Yoshi Tatsu on NXT, stemming from a backstage argument when Kidd broke Tatsu's toy figurine of himself and stole the leg off another.[60] During their series of matches, the pair traded wins, and Tatsu claimed back the stolen figurine leg by winning a Necklace on a Pole match on the July 26 NXT.[60][61][62] After the match, Kidd attacked Tatsu's right leg; a week later, Kidd claimed there would be no more Yoshi Tatsu in WWE.[63] Tatsu returned more than a month later on the September 6 NXT to defeat Kidd and end the feud.[64]

In January 2012, Kidd began a face turn.[65] After defeating Trent Barreta twice on NXT, Kidd proposed that they tag team together.[66] In late February 2012, Kidd began a feud with Michael McGillicutty after McGillicutty mocked his lack of wrestling heritage.[67] Kidd then suffered a loss to McGillicutty on the February 29 NXT.[68] After McGillicutty insulted Kidd by claiming that Kidd would never be a true 'Hart',[69] Kidd received a rematch on the March 21 NXT, where he defeated McGillicutty to even up the score at one win each.[70] Kidd and McGillicutty faced off in a third match on the April 11 NXT, resulting in Kidd triumphant over McGillicutty.[71] Kidd reinforced his singles dominance in NXT by first defeating Johnny Curtis on April 25,[72] and next defeating McGillicutty and Derrick Bateman in a triple threat match on May 16.[73]

On the March 29 Superstars, Kidd faced Justin Gabriel and won the match, after which the duo showed mutual respect and agreed to form a tag team to challenge Primo and Epico for the WWE Tag Team Championship in a dark Triple Threat tag team match for WrestleMania XXVIII, also involving the Usos.[74][75] However, Primo & Epico managed to win the match and retain their titles.[76] During the match, Gabriel suffered a hyperextended and twisted elbow, rendering him out of action for several weeks.[77] Kidd reunited with Gabriel on the June 6 NXT Redemption, where they defeated the duo of Johnny Curtis and Heath Slater.[78] At the No Way Out pay-per-view, Kidd and Gabriel were defeated by the Prime Time Players (Titus O'Neil and Darren Young) in a number one contender Fatal Four-Way tag team match, also involving Primo and Epico and The Usos.[79]

On the June 29 SmackDown, Kidd defeated Jack Swagger to qualify for the World Heavyweight Championship Money in the Bank ladder match.[80] Fellow qualifier Tensai then started a feud with Kidd after Kidd pinned him in 19 seconds on the July 2 Raw, leading Tensai to assault Kidd in post-match attacks.[81] At Money in the Bank, Kidd's ladder match was won by Dolph Ziggler.[82] On the July 30 Raw, Kidd lost to Tensai, but after Tensai continued to attack Kidd after the match, the referee reversed his decision and awarded Kidd the win.[83]

on the Night of Champions preshow Kidd was in a #1 Contender Battle Royal for a shot at the United States Championship where he was elimated by Tensai, Kidd and Gabriel would then compete in a series of tag team matches on Superstars against Curt Hawkins and Tyler Reks, winning every match.[84][85][86] On the debut episode of WWE Main Event on October 3, Kidd and Gabriel, now unofficially called International Airstrike,[87] lost to Santino Marella and Zack Ryder in the quarter-finals of a tournament to decide the number one contenders to the tag team championship.[88] On the October 31 NXT, Kidd challenged Antonio Cesaro for the WWE United States Championship, but lost.[89] At the Survivor Series pay-per-view, Kidd was victorious in a 10 man elimination tag team match alongside Justin Gabriel, Rey Mysterio, Sin Cara, and Brodus Clay against Titus O' Neil, Darren Young, Primo, Epico, and Tensai; with Kidd pinning O'Neil and Epico.[90] In January 2013, Kidd suffered a torn knee meniscus and was estimated to require a 6-12 month hiatus to recover.[91] Despite his injury, Kidd appeared on the May 27 "Bret Hart Appreciation Night" ceremony.[92]

Since his return, Kidd found slightly more success within WWE's developmental branch NXT, with a NXT winning streak since December 2013 including victories over Leo Kruger and Mason Ryan.[97][98] At Wrestlemania XXX Kidd was in the André the Giant Memorial Battle Royal which was won by Cesaro.On the May 8, 2014 episode of NXT, Kidd participated in a 20-man battle royal for an NXT Championship shot, with him being involved in a three-way tie.[99] As a result, Kidd faced the other two winners, Tyler Breeze and Sami Zayn in a triple-threat match on the next episode of NXT, where Kidd won to become #1 contender for a match at NXT Takeover.
