Before appearing on RAW The Heart Throbs wrestled in Ohio Valley Wrestling (OVW) and Eastern Wrestling Alliance under the alias The Heartbreakers, but the WWE changed their name since their name was perceived as too similar to that of "The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels.
The Heart Throbs made their RAW debut on April 18, 2005, facing then World Tag Team Champions William Regal and Tajiri, but were seemingly unsuccessful. They participated in Tag-Team Turmoil match for the World Tag Team Championship at Backlash.
The Heart Throbs, who have portrayed heels, mainly appeared on the RAW B-show, Heat. They had short-lived feuds with William Regal and Eugene, Hurricane and Rosey, and Val Venis and Viscera
During the first episode of HEAT for 2006, the pair turned face by getting a great deal of fan reaction and began entertaining the crowd by bringing two "hot chicks" into the ring and getting them to dance. During a WWE Unlimited webcast the Heart Throbs were sitting with the fans and they ended up being on its "Kiss Cam" segment, each kissing a girl sitting near them.
Both Heart Throbs were released by WWE on February 10, 2006.
Since their release, they have been active on the independent wrestling scene. They wrestled former NWA World Tag Team Champions The Naturals.
The Heart Throbs were seen backstage at the Final Resolution 2007 PPV. They are interested wrestling in TNA. There has been talk between Vince Russo, Jeff Jarrett, and Terry Taylor about bringing them in. The Pair also had a dark match against the Riggs Brothers at the TNA TV Tapings on the January 29, 2007. However the match wasn't taped for tv.
They made their official debut as Christy Hemme's secret team against The Voodoo Kin Mafia at Destination X.
