He worked behind the scenes for years in WCW composing wrestlers' entrance themes. Because many of these themes were blatantly based off of existing songs, he is the former {{Trope Namer|s}} for SuspiciouslySimilarSong, which was originally called The Jimmy Hart Version.

* TheStarscream: He initially worked under Jerry Lawler as part of The King's Army, plotting to take control of the group away from Lawler. He eventually put the crown on Wrestling/PreciousPaulEllering while Lawler was hospitalized from a football injury, but Lawler made short work of Hart once he was healthy.

He was a top {{Heel}} manager in Memphis into the mid-1980s as the leader of his PowerStable the First Family. He debuted in WWE in 1985 as the manager for [[Wrestling/GregValentine Greg "The Hammer" Valentine]] before "Luscious" Johnny Valiant took over as the manager of the Dream Team (Valentine and Wrestling/BrutusBeefcake.) Hart was in Wrestling/KingKongBundy's corner for his famous {{Squash|Match}} of SD Jones at the first ''Wrestling/{{WrestleMania}}'' on March 31, 1985. He managed many wrestlers in WWE, including [[Wrestling/AdrianAdonis "Adorable" Adrian Adonis]], the Funk Brothers ([[Wrestling/TerryFunk Terry]] and [[Wrestling/DoryFunkJr Hoss [Dory Jr.]]]), [[Wrestling/HonkyTonkMan the Honky Tonk Man]][[note]]Where he was billed as "Colonel Jimmy Hart"[[/note]], the Hart Foundation (Wrestling/BretHart[[note]]no relation[[/note]] and Wrestling/JimNeidhart), the Fabulous Rougeau Brothers (Wrestling/{{Jacques|Rougeau}} and Raymond), Dino Bravo, Wrestling/TheNastyBoys, Wrestling/TheNaturalDisasters ([[Wrestling/JohnTenta Earthquake]] and [[Wrestling/FredOttman Typhoon]]), Money Inc. ([[Wrestling/TedDiBiase "The Million Dollar Man" Ted [=DiBiase=]]] and [[Wrestling/MikeRotunda Irwin R. Schyster]]), the Glamour Girls (Wrestling/LeilaniKai and Judy Martin) and, after a [[HeelFaceTurn face turn]] in early 1993, the [=MegaManiacs=] (Wrestling/HulkHogan and Brutus Beefcake.)

Hart followed Hulk to WCW in 1994 and managed him until his match with [[Wrestling/BigShow the Giant]] at ''WCW Halloween Havoc 95'' when Hart turned heel and sided with the Wrestling/DungeonOfDoom. Hart would stay with the group through it's dissolution after ''WCW Bash at the Beach 97'', and would manage the Faces of Fear (Wrestling/{{Meng}} and Wrestling/TheBarbarian) and [[Wrestling/BillDeMott Hugh Morrus]] until the FOF split. In late 1998, Hart announced that he had reunited the FOF and Morrus as the First Family. This lasted until Barbarian inexplicably turned on Meng, kicking him out of the group. Hart added Bryan Knobbs (formerly of the Nasty Boys) and Jerry Flynn to the group, but it just wasn't the same. Hart briefly managed Hail (Emory Hale) and temporarily associated himself with Hogan again in 2000. He is a 1x [[http://www.wrestling-titles.com/us/tn/cwa/awa-s-h.html Southern (Memphis) Heavyweight Champion]].

-->'''[[http://uproxx.com/prowrestling/2015/03/the-best-and-worst-of-wcw-uncensored-1996/3/ Brandon Stroud]]''': As Hart's leaving, Mean Gene starts to tell him to “blow it out his ass,” and I almost choke to death on my coffee.
