On December 12, they lost the Tag Team Championships to Darkside (Brian Flynn and Shawn Williams). On May 16, 1993, Evans defeated Scott Z. to win the PLW World Championship. In June, Evans vacated the title. In 2000, Evans debuted for

World Wrestling Federation/Entertainment (1993, 2000, 2002) In August 1993, Evans debuted in the
World Wrestling Federation on an episode of
WWF Wrestling Challenge losing to
Adam Bomb. In 2000, on the August 14 episode of
Jakked, Evans returned to the World Wrestling Federation as a
jobber in a losing effort to
Gangrel. On the October 30 episode of
Jakked, Evans teamed with Mike Hollow in a losing effort to
Dean Malenko and
Perry Saturn. In early 2002, Evans wrestled in a tryout dark match against
Aaron Stevens. It was Stevens' first match in WWF/WWE and he has said that Evans settled him down in that match and it helped him get a developmental contract with the company.
Ring of Honor (2010–2016) On the December 6 episode of
Ring of Honor Wrestling, Evans and his client
Mike Bennett appeared in the crowd to watch a match between the
ROH World Television Champion Eddie Edwards and
Christopher Daniels. On June 21 tapings of
Ring of Honor Wrestling, Evans teamed up with Mike Bennett losing to
Adam Cole and
Eddie Edwards; after Maria Kanellis slapped Cole, they proceeded to attack Edwards and Cole until “The Queen of Wrestling” Sara Del Rey hit the ring to stop it and attempted to put an ankle lock on Kanellis. On July 28 tapings of
Ring of Honor Wrestling, it was later announced Bennett would be teaming with Kanellis to face
Sara Del Rey and Eddie Edwards in a mixed tag team match at Boiling Point pay-per-view. At the June 23, 2013, tapings of
Ring of Honor Wrestling, Bennett turned on Evans. Evans then formed the Brutal Burgers tag team with
Cheeseburger. In March 2015 at an ROH Baltimore TV Taping, Evans turned heel on Cheeseburger, ending their 18-month tag team run. Evans and Cheeseburger would later face each other at Global Wars with the bout ending in a no-contest after Evans put Cheeseburger through a table.
Iron Week In late 2012, at 40 years old, Bob decided that he would wrestle seven consecutive sixty-minute
Iron Man matches, doing so over a seven-day span, referring to this week of events as Iron Week. Viewing it as a way to prove himself, prove he's not just a manager but a viable in ring performer, capable of working a full-time wrestling schedule with
ROH (where he worked as a manager). He hand-chose his opponents, and began November 25, 2012. Bob would go on to wrestle Grizzly Redwood, Todd Sople, Julian Starr,
Adam Cole,
Biff Busick,
Antonio Thomas, and
Vinny Marseglia over the course of Iron Week. He won twice, lost twice, and accrued three draws. Evans repeated the week in August-September of 2022, ending the week wrestling Colby Corino on the former's 50th birthday. ==Championships and accomplishments==
