Amasis and Ophidian made their debuts for Combat Zone Wrestling (CZW) on August 14, 2010, at Tangled Web 3, where they defeated The Best Around (Bruce Maxwell and T.J. Cannon) in the first round of a tournament for the vacant CZW World Tag Team Championship. On October 9 Amasis wrestled in a four–way match, which was won by Rich Swann and also included Ryan Slater and Sabian. At the following event on October 16, Amasis and Ophidian wrestled Irish Driveby (Rich Swann and Ryan McBride) to a fifteen-minute time limit draw. On November 13 at Night of Infamy 9: Betrayal The Osirian Portal defeated The Runaways (Joe Gacy and Ryan Slater) in the semifinals of the World Tag Team Championship tournament. The video clip of Amasis and Ophidian hypnotizing Gacy and Slater in the finish of the match gained them some major notoriety, garnering over two million hits on YouTube and being shown ESPN's Around the Horn, Tru TV Presents: World's Dumbest Hillbillies 4 and G4's Attack of the Show!, and cemented Amasis' and Ophidian's spots as favorites among the CZW crowd. The finals of the tournament took place on December 12, 2010, at the Cage of Death XII pay-per-view, where The Osirian Portal was defeated by Philly's Most Wanted (Joker and Sabian). Amasis and Ophidian returned to CZW on February 12, 2011, at Twelve: The Twelfth Anniversary Event, interfering in a six–way Best of the Best qualifying match and using hypnosis to turn it into a dance–off, before helping Jonathan Gresham pick up the win.
