Cancer and stroke survivor Hart, 61, was being inducted into the Hall of Fame as part of the Hart Foundation tag team with recently deceased partner Jim “The Anvil” Neidhart.

Accompanied on stage by Natalya, Neidhart’s daughter and current WWE superstar, Hart began to give his speech.

A crazed intruder then ran into the ring and tackled the wrestling veteran as WWE cameras cut away from the disgusting act.

As of now, I am no longer posting about him and I leave this video as a reminder that you DO NOT invade the ring.

CBS New York have identified him as 26-year-old Zachary Madsen from Nebraska.

Footage show Shane McMahon, Xavier Woods, Tyson Kidd, Curtis Axel and former UFC fighter Travis Browne all rush to intervene and break up the incident.

The disgraced attacker was reportedly on the receiving end of some punches by those who helped break up the incident.

The LA Times are reporting that the man has “been charged with 2 counts of assault in the 3rd degree and disorderly conduct”.

And police also claim Hart did not go to the hospital, as he was credited for even finishing his speech after the vile attack.
