The team was separated when Festus was drafted to the Raw brand in the 2009 Supplemental Draft. Jesse adopted a new in-ring persona, a white rapper called "Slam Master J". After months of inactivity, Festus returned to "SmackDown" as Luke Gallows, and became an enforcer for CM Punk. Punk claimed that the Festus gimmick was due to Festus being addicted to pills, but Punk had managed to cure him. J and Gallows also took part in the 26-man battle royal at WrestleMania XXVI, which was won by Yoshi Tatsu.
