He's been around for a while, floating in the background, but most people haven't really taken notice of just how long his tenure has been. He signed with Ohio Valley Wrestling (WWE's developmental territory before Florida Championship Wrestling and NXT) back in 2005, going by the name of Johnny Geo Basco. He didn't have that particular name for very long, but the fact of the matter is that he was creeping up on a full decade with the company in one way or another, actually making him one of the longest-tenured people in the entire locker room.
