25 years ago today, Owen Hart died as a result of WWE’s negligence in having him perform a horribly ill-advised stunt at its Over The Edge 1999 pay-per-view event.
Current WWE star and fellow Hart family member Natalya paid tribute to Owen today on social media:
25 years have passed since we lost Owen. We think of him all the time and keeping his memory alive is always so important to me. Owen was an incredible wrestler but most importantly, an incredible person. ❤️ pic.twitter.com/p5l4NBodlj

25 years have passed since we lost Owen. We think of him all the time and keeping his memory alive is always so important to me. Owen was an incredible wrestler but most importantly, an incredible person.
To commemorate this day, artist Rob Schamberger was asked by Martha Hart to make this painting of Owen, which you can order a print of in support of the Owen Hart Foundation charity.
This is my first officially-sanctioned painting of Owen Hart. I had the honor of being asked by Martha Hart to make this piece commemorating the 25th anniversary of his passing here in my home town of Kansas City. It’s a responsibility I take very seriously.
I think it’s beautiful that this piece is being used as a fundraiser for the charity named after him, the Owen Hart Foundation. They’re an organization that does work for a lot of causes including education and food insecurity. If you’d like to have a print of Owen and also want to do some good, please take a moment and consider getting one of these. Thank you.
