[3] In December 1999, Jimmy Hart put them together with Evan Karagias as a group to both capitalize on and make fun of the success of boy bands at the time.
[1][2] Their gimmick was first introduced to the public with vignettes disguised as music videos for their (Hart penned) pop song "Can't Get You Outta My Heart".
From there they progressed to performing live on WCW Monday Nitro, dancing on green circles in the ring and lip syncing their song before their matches.
[3] The group were received as heels, and after three months captured (together) the WCW Hardcore Championship by pinning Brian Knobbs on February 28, 2000.
[3] After feuding with the Misfits in Action, 3 Count began to have problems, as Moore and Helms accused Karagias of attempting to hog the limelight.
[4] They also met in a ladder match to decide the number one contender for the WCW Cruiserweight Championship at Starrcade, in which both Moore and Helms grabbed the contract at the same moment.
[9] Helms, along with his proteges Trevor Lee and Andrew Everett, performed a 3 Count song during TNA's Total Nonstop Deletion.
