Fueled by a mouth that never stops running and arrogance as scorching as the shock of red hair on his head, Heath Slater certainly lives up to his self-imposed moniker, The “One-Man Band.”
Hailing from West Virginia, Slater first exploded onto the WWE scene as a rookie on WWE NXT’s inaugural season. Right out of the gate, Slater made an impact, defeating Carlito and becoming the first-ever NXT Rookie to defeat a WWE Pro in a singles match. From there, he teamed up with The Nexus, joining Wade Barrett in his hostile takeover of WWE. After CM Punk staged a coup and emerged as the new leader of The Nexus, Slater walked away from the group and helped form the splinter faction, The Corre. As the black and yellow armbanded group had on Raw, The Corre set about on a mission of domination on SmackDown, targeting Superstars like Edge, Big Show and Kane.
Slater was a key member of the collective and managed to win the WWE Tag Team Championship with Justin Gabriel, defeating Vladimir Kozlov & Santino Marella at WWE Elimination Chamber 2011. The Corre even landed a match at WrestleMania XXVII, taking on Big Show, Kane, Santino and Kofi Kingston. They came up short in that bout, setting off a chain of events that led to the group’s ultimate dissolution.
Since the crumbling of The Corre, Slater rocked forth, trying to make an impact as a singles star. The only thing standing in his way? A long line of WWE Legends, including Vader, Diamond Dallas Page and Bob Backlund, who have put a damper on Heath's good time.
