World Championship Wrestling (2000–2001) After completing his training in the
WCW Power Plant,
World Championship Wrestling's
training school, Haire, using the ring name Sean O'Haire, began making appearances on second-tier WCW television shows such as
Worldwide and
Saturday Night. Haire made his live television debut on the June 26, 2000 episode of
Nitro teaming with his fellow Power Plant graduate
Mark Jindrak as they defeated the
Filthy Animals (
Rey Mysterio Jr. and
Juventud Guerrera). On the July 3 episode of
Nitro, O'Haire and Jindrak faced the
Misfits in Action (
General Hugh G. Rection and
Corporal Cajun) to determine the number one contenders for the
WCW World Tag Team Championship, but were defeated. Despite this, O'Haire and Jindrak faced then-World Tag Team Champions
KroniK and
Vampiro and
The Great Muta in a three-way match for the championship, but were unsuccessful in winning the title. In August, O'Haire and Jindrak helped form the
Natural Born Thrillers with
Mike Sanders,
Shawn Stasiak,
Chuck Palumbo,
Johnny "The Bull" Stamboli, and
Reno. They were briefly mentored by
Kevin Nash. O'Haire and Jindrak won the title once more before splitting when O'Haire and Jindrak participated in a tag team
battle royal with the Natural Born Thrillers teammates Stasiak and Palumbo. After the conclusion of the match, Sanders declared both teams victorious and said that the teams should trade partners. As a result, O'Haire formed a new tag team with Palumbo, while the second team consisted of Jindrak and Stasiak. Palumbo and O'Haire defeated
The Insiders (
Diamond Dallas Page and Nash) in January 2001. Over the following two weeks, O'Haire and Palumbo feuded with
Team Canada (
Lance Storm and
Mike Awesome), defeating them on the final episode of
Nitro on March 26. WCW was purchased by the WWF, and both O'Haire and Palumbo's contracts were picked up. Subsequently, O'Haire and Palumbo defeated the Hardy Boyz on the August 2, 2001 edition of
SmackDown!. O'Haire and Palumbo next dropped the WCW Tag Team Championship to the
Brothers of Destruction (
The Undertaker and
Kane) on the August 9 episode of
SmackDown! and lost their rematch for the championship in a
cage match the following week on
Raw. O'Haire and Palumbo's last televised match together was on the August 26 edition of
Heat defeating
The Holly Cousins (
Hardcore Holly and
Crash Holly). Palumbo was thrown out of The Alliance in late October 2001 and joined the WWF in November. Also in September, O'Haire was sent to
Ohio Valley Wrestling (OVW) for seasoning where he joined Kenny Bolin's "Bolin Services". O'Haire returned to WWE on the June 30, 2002 edition of
Heat, defeating
Justin Credible. He urged people to commit adultery, break the law, not pay taxes, and not go to church, among other things. He ended each vignette with the line "I'm not telling you anything you don't already know." In 2003, O'Haire returned to the main
SmackDown! roster, telling various superstars to perform indecent acts, which included persuading
Spanky to
streak through the arena and
Dawn Marie to
flash the audience. O'Haire's persona included a long black
trench coat he wore to the ring and his obsession with
spiders, including fairly new tattoos with black flames on each wrist and a red spider web shooting out from the flames on his left wrist and a blue spider web on his right wrist. His Titantron video was also inside the body of a spider with a spiderweb in the background. He quickly came under the tutelage of wrestling legend,
Roddy Piper in April 2003. O'Haire continued on his own mainly on Velocity. In late November 2003, he was involved in a motorcycle accident that required stitches and kept him out of action for the next month or so. When he recovered in February, he was sent back to OVW and had a few matches against John Cena in house shows before being released from his contract on April 3, 2004. On July 17, 2004, O'Haire and Piper re-united at a Ballpark Brawl show where Haire was Piper's hand-picked wrestler to face
Jimmy Hart's hand-picked wrestler
Abyss. O'Haire defeated Abyss by disqualification. Haire then went on to work for California based independent promotion
Ultimate Pro Wrestling. O'Haire reunited with Chuck Palumbo on February 23, 2005, at UPW's Homecoming Havoc in which they were defeated by Tom Howard and the Predator. O'Haire retired from professional wrestling soon after in order to focus on
mixed martial arts. O'Haire's last match was on March 28, 2006, when he returned to WWE for a one night appearance on
WWE Velocity losing to
Scotty 2 Hotty in a dark match. ==Kickboxing==
