Of course, after Cyber Sunday, Dillinger would go on to sign with the company and take part in their developmental brand. At the time it was known as OVW, where he feuded with the likes of Damien Sandow and Cody Rhodes as Shawn Spears.

He would then transition to FCW when OVW split from WWE.

During that time, Dillinger wrestled under the revived ECW brand. He was part of General Manger Teddy Long’s “New Superstar Initiative”. He was known as Gavin Spears and went between both brands until he was released from his contract in 2009. Dillinger re-signed with the company four years later in 2013.
