Harry Smith is a fan favorite in the UK, and rightly so, and it doesn't get much better than wrestling on UK television in front of those fans.

World of Sport was a widely popular sporting feature that once appeared every Saturday on ITV in the UK. Its initial run was between 1965 and 1985. Wrestling was one of the mainstays of the show, which featured the legendary Giant Haystacks and Big Daddy.

World of Sport returned in 2016, but just focused on wrestling. Harry appeared on the first New Year's Special in a battle royal. He then signed for a full-time season in 2018, as British Bulldog Jr. He went on to face Will Ospreay and Iestyn Rees in singles competition, and also became WOS Tag Team Champion with Grado. The show didn't return for a second season.


#2 Harry's last victory in WWE was on WWE Superstars before returning

Before leaving WWE in 2011, Harry was restricted to matches on WWE's B show "WWE Superstars." Sadly, his split with Tyson Kidd and subsequent feud were at one stage relegated to WWE Superstars, before returning to Monday Night RAW for their feud-ending match. By this point, Harry had lost his passion.

His last victory in a WWE ring came on an episode of WWE Superstars, teaming with Yoshi Tatsu against Primo and Zack Ryder. What a random combination. After leaving WWE, Harry once again resumed his career on the independent scene after a four month absence from the ring.


#1 Harry has held multiple tag team championships around the world

When it comes to tag team wrestling, Harry Smith is your man. He has won tag team championships all over the world.

His taste for tag team gold has seen him win some of the top tag team championships. He has won the WWE and World Tag Team Championship in WWE with Tyson Kidd, the IWGP Tag Team Championship with Lance Archer in NJPW, and also the NWA World Tag Team Championship.

When it comes to singles championships, they have eluded Harry Smith so far, but who knows what his latest WWE run will bring.
