"The Natural" Eddie Howard is a young powerhouse who is starting to make a name for himself. Fresh out of training, he was part of the original MAW roster, where he was teamed up with fellow rookie D.C. Rayne to form the tag team Natural Storm. The two found success early, and won the tag team titles twice in their first year together. Rapidly improving as a worker thanks to Rip Chord's expert guidance, by the end of 2007 Natural Storm was considered a good enough team to leave MAW and test their skills elsewhere. Their first port of call, as arranged for them by Chord, was with the new FCW promotion in Puerto Rico.
