[3] The Hurricane and Rosey made their debut as a tag team on August 15, 2003, and competed sporadically on Raw, making more regular appearances on Heat.

[5][6] The feud continued for most of 2004, and The Hurricane and Rosey faced La Résistance several times on Raw and pay-per-view, including at Backlash.

[10] The Hurricane and Rosey finished out the year competing against teams including Rhyno and Tajiri, and Val Venis and Steven Richards.

[4][11] In early 2005 at May's pay-per-view event Backlash, The Hurricane and Rosey won the World Tag Team Championship in a Tag Team Turmoil match after defeating then-champions Tajiri and William Regal, The Heart Throbs (Romeo and Antonio), Simon Dean and Maven and La Résistance (Robért Conway and Sylvain Grenier) by last eliminating La Résistance.

[25] The following week on Raw, The Hurricane did not show up in a World Tag Team Championship match leaving Rosey to face Cade and Murdoch alone.

During the match, The Hurricane (out of costume) appeared at the top of the entrance ramp, now going by his real name, Gregory Helms, and watched as Rosey was double teamed and defeated.

After the match, Helms announced that he was fed up with being funny for the crowd and that he had been carrying Rosey as a tag team partner.
