The team was split up and Mueller often competed in Heat , the WWE's side show against jobbers . But he was also feuded against Goldust and his tag team partner Snitsky and so the team with Cade was reformed in 2006.

In 2007 another title feud followed, this time against the Hardy Boyz . On June 4th of that year they were finally able to win the Tag Team title for the second time and keep it until September 5th, when they had to give it up at short notice at a house show in order to regain it on September 8th. On December 10th they finally lost the title to Hardcore Holly and Cody Rhodes on the "15th Anniversary of RAW" anniversary show. In the following period, the team was separated and on June 25, 2008 Mueller finally switched to the Friday show Smackdown , while Cade stayed with RAW.
