>>14878621The made up lore is breathtakingly stupid
>Stu lived like a pioneer on the Canadian prairie breaking wild horses and he didn’t own shoes until he was 15>guy claims to be an expert shooter but he’s never had one verified amateur wrestling match. They just claim he was “training to be an Olympian” There’s no need to embellish really because the real deepest lore is completely batshit crazy. Stu and his kids are the result of some deranged Doc Brass style eugenics breeding program. The Hart’s and the Smith’s intermarried with each other for several generations across 2 continents. They did produce a real Olympic athlete at one point. Stu’s grandfather maybe? A decathlon guy I think. I’d have to look it up to jog my memory. Some real Road to Wellville shit going on and like most fitness cults it was really just a cover for sex with fit young men. There were handfuls of them all over the U.S. and Europe and pro wrestling sprang up out of them. Farmer Burns was one of these gurus and Frank Gotch and Toots Mondt from the future WWE were his butt boys that he indoctrinated. Back then there was a whole underground of Physical Culture that was just thinly veiled gay sex. Circus strongmen like Eugene Sandow. They had mail order catalogues you’d send a way for, “instruction manuals” but it was really just pictures of oiled up young men posed up.
Stu basically carried on the tradition and got away with it longer because he was in a real isolated area. Guy was never a wrestler he was a shoot inbred butt sex afficianado and mild sadist who didn’t mind some cat shit on his flap jacks
