Basham and Holle eventually made their way to Ohio Valley Wrestling, WWE's then-top developmental territory, and began a small rivalry that ended when both were called up to the main roster. Basham wrestled under his real name while Hollie wrestled as "Damaja".

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
“Universal history is the history of a few metaphors.”
—Jorge Luis Borges (1899–1986)
“There is nothing truer than myth: history, in its attempt to “realize” myth, distorts it, stops halfway; when history claims to have “succeeded” this is nothing but humbug and mystification. Everything we dream is “realizable.” Reality does not have to be: it is simply what it is.”
—Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)
