=Stampede Wrestling=
One of Hart's first wrestling appearances was in her father's promotion, Stampede Wrestling, in August 1989, during a heated rivalry between her husband Davey Boy Smith and his storyline brother Johnny Smith, in which her brother Owen Hart also got involved after Johnny's disrespect towards the Hart family.{{cite web |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VCgvzYmk4h0|title= Owen Hart vs. Johnny Smith (August 18, 1989)|date= November 12, 2007|publisher=youtube}}{{cbignore}}{{Dead YouTube link|date=February 2022}}
She was also involved in the 1999 incarnation of Stampede Wrestling. In a storyline where she refused to put the belt around the waist of a wrestler who had insulted her family, she was then attacked but her son Harry intervened and chased the attackers off.{{cite web |url= https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-97doL4g7AQ&list=PLB33A7A5E82749983 |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211222/-97doL4g7AQ |archive-date=2021-12-22 |url-status=live|title= 3-Way Match Plus Diana Hart Smith attacked and Harry Smith makes save|date= November 30, 2011|publisher=youtube}}{{cbignore}}

Hart was in attendance at SummerSlam in August 1992 where her husband won the WWF Intercontinental Championship from her brother, Bret Hart, in the night's main event at Wembley Stadium.{{cite web|url=http://www.wrestlingdvdnetwork.com/review-wwfwwe-summerslam-1992-dvd/5048/|title = Review: WWF/WWE Summerslam 1992 DVD|date = 15 September 2010|access-date=December 17, 2016|publisher=wrestlingdvdnetwork.com}} At the end of the match, Hart embraced both her brother and her husband to signify the family's unification.{{cite web|url=http://411mania.com/wrestling/random-network-reviews-summerslam-1992/| title= Random Network Reviews: SummerSlam 1992 | access-date=December 17, 2016|publisher=411mania.com}}
Two years later at the 1994 SummerSlam, she sat at ringside beside her husband, who had just returned to the WWF, to watch her brothers Bret and Owen wrestle each other inside a steel cage for the WWF Championship.{{cite book | author = Ben Undelson | title = Fiction.

When their match at In Your House led to a draw, a rematch was signed for King of the Ring 1996, which the Bulldog ultimately lost.{{cite web|url=http://thedirtydeeds.co.uk/1996/06/wwe-results-king-of-the-ring-1996/|archive-url=https://archive.today/20180108163501/http://thedirtydeeds.co.uk/1996/06/wwe-results-king-of-the-ring-1996/|url-status=dead|archive-date=January 8, 2018|title=WWE Results: King of the Ring 1996|access-date=December 17, 2016|publisher=thedirtydeeds.co.uk}}{{cite book | author = Ben Undelson | title = Fiction.
