A few months ago Royce Keys formed an alliance with OTM and they have since come to be known as 946. The group has quickly established themselves as a force to be reckoned with and they recently added Jaida Parker to their ranks.
During this week’s episode of Monday Night Raw, The Bloodline faced off against 946 in a six man tag match, and Carmelo Hayes shocked the world when he attacked The Bloodline with a crowbar then revealed himself to be the newest member of 946.
False Finish is reporting that Royce Keys was the one who personally picked Carmelo Hayes for 946. According to the report the decision was made months ago, and it was decided that Carmelo Hayes was a lock for the group before 946 even made their first appearance on TV. The decision to add Hayes to 946 was made back in July.
Another source reportedly told False Finish that before he was penciled in as a member of 946 the plan was for Hayes to take the United States Championship off of Trick Williams. It’s being said that Hayes was always set to receive another push on TV whether that meant adding him to 946, or him defeating Trick to become a two time United States Champion.
