Bret Hart Shares First Look of His Character in American Dad

WWE Hall of Famer Bret Hart continues to remain relevant despite his wrestling days far behind him. His latest venture involves a feature in the popular animated series ‘American Dad,’ which will be airing tonight on TBS.

The “Excellence of Execution” recently shared a first look of his animated character on his X/Twitter account. The character bears a striking resemblance to Hart’s iconic wrestling persona, complete with his signature vest, tinted sunglasses, and long black hair, all reminiscent of his heyday in professional wrestling.

“Here’s a sneak peek of my episode on tonight’s #AmericanDad episode. Watch me save The Smiths and all of Langley Falls on TBS @ 10pm!#AmericanDad @AmericanDadTBS @AmericanDad.”

American Dad is one of the longest-running animated sitcoms in U.S. television history, centering on the eccentric Smith family in a fictionalized version of Langley, Virginia, and their often comedic escapades. In the latest episode featuring Bret Hart, the former five-time WWE Champion appears as a celebrity guest on a cruise, where he is invited to perform the strike of the ceremonial “Final Golden Spike.”

This isn’t Hart’s first foray into animation—he previously appeared in an episode of The Simpsons, further cementing his appeal across diverse entertainment platforms. Outside of his non-wrestling ventures, Hart remains a beloved figure in the wrestling world, as evidenced by the overwhelming demand for his VIP meet-and-greet packages at WrestleMania 41.

With the first look hinting at a captivating episode, fans are eagerly anticipating Bret Hart’s American Dad appearance and any future projects he may undertake.
