According to a source in Florida Championship Wrestling, Harry “DH” Smith” is set to be called back up to the Raw roster any week now and become the newest member of Randy Orton’s “Legacy” faction.
Smith has been off WWE television since last May. Shortly there after, Smith was drafted to SmackDown as part of the 2008 WWE Supplemental Draft. Smith, however, returned to Florida Championship Wrestling on August 26, without making his SmackDown debut. He made the decision to return to WWE’s developmental promotion on a full-time basis so he could mature, and put more effort into developing his in-ring work and his personality.
In October, WWE put Smith together with long-time friend TJ Wilson with the intent to call them up to the main roster as “The New Hart Foundation” with SmackDown Diva Natalya as their manager. In the meantime, the two won the FCW Florida Tag Team Championships, defeating Joe Hennig and Sebastian Slater. Smith & Wilson lost the belts to Tyler Reiks and Johnny Curtis on December 11 at a FCW television taping. The title loss appeared to be as a result of the team finally getting called up to SmackDown, but that was not the case.
Officials had pegged Smith & Wilson to feud with Carlito & Primo Colon over the WWE Tag Team titles, but went with The Brian Kendrick and Ezekiel Jackson instead. That put Smith & Wilson back on the drawing board.
With Smith’s forthcoming call-up to the main roster, Wilson will be left to fend for himself once again. It’s going to be tough as Wilson’s partnership with Smith was perhaps his best chance at getting called up to the main roster because he is a bit on the small side.
