Curt Hawkins was another name who is associated with FCW, but he revealed in the documentary that he decided to head back down to developmental because he wanted to prove his worth to WWE after the storyline with Edge came to an end. Hawkins' return meant that he as one of the stars trained by Norman Smiley.

After Hawkins then learned how to do it, he said that Smiley told him that it was his move now.
"This day I was in his class and I got to work with him and I asked him, I said: 'hey man how did you do that bodyslam you used to do?' He used to do this very unique bodyslam where he spun around, slammed the guy, he showed me, I had a couple of tries and I got it and I was getting it down really well and he said, "you know what, you can have that."
