#1 He wrestled in three tag team matches with his son before passing
Davey Boy Smith was married to Diana Hart Smith (Bret Hart's sister) from 1984 to 2000. During their marriage, they had two children - Harry and Georgia.
Harry is currently wrestling for Major League Wrestling under the name Davey Boy Smith, Jr., but he's hardly a rookie. In fact, along with Tyson Kidd, while using the moniker David Hart Smith, he's a former WWE Unified Tag Team Champion. This was (more or less) the same title his father won with Dynamite Kid at WrestleMania 2 just 24 years earlier.

So, it's kind of appropriate that the late British Bulldog's final matches were tag matches in which he teamed with his son.
In May 2002, literally the weekend before he died, Smith and his son competed in three tag matches together in Manitoba, Canada. At the time, Davey Boy had been training to make a comeback to the wrestling world. At that point he hadn't wrestled in a match for two years. Not only was he getting ready to make his way back into wrestling but, according to his girlfriend at the time Andrea Redding, he was about to get married again, too.
Before we wrap things up, here's a cool video clip of Smith appearing on Stampede Wrestling TV to do an interview with a young Mauro Ranallo along with his teenage son as the time. Enjoy.
