On May 4, 2016, he made his debut in the WWE Development League NXT in a match against Samoa Joe , which he lost.

SmackDown Live (2018-2019)

As part of the "Superstar Shakeup", SAnitY was drafted into Smackdown Live on April 17, 2018, but this only affected the male members Alexander Wolfe, Eric Young and Killian Dain. Nikki Cross initially stayed with NXT and was thus split from the team. However, the group did not expect big profits, they were only ever used for smaller matches, which is why the group sank underground.

Raw (2019-2020)

As part of the 2019 Superstar Shake-Up, Young switched from SmackDown to Raw on April 15, 2019 . Thus the group SAnitY was dissolved. Due to a wave of layoffs, he was released from the WWE on April 15, 2020.
