Young, then dubbed the “Paranoid Pied Piper of TNA” by announcer Mike Tenay, would soon be challenged to a bikini contest by Roode’s associate, Ms. Brooks. Young accepted and beat Ms. Brooks in a bikini contest at Turning Point on December 10, 2006, by wearing a SpongeBob SquarePants bikini. Young continued his feud with Robert Roode and Ms. Brooks, with Ms. Brooks trying to get Young to join “Robert Roode Inc.”. Finally, at Against All Odds Ms. Brooks seduced Young into signing a contract with “Robert Roode Inc.”. This consequently sent him into a shoot angle where he was systematically humiliated every week by Roode, by having to clean toilets for Roode’s own personal use, and getting illegally involved in Roode’s matches. Young was forced to perform these tasks because the contract Young signed gave Roode control over his TNA contract as well, so if he was fired from Roode, Inc., he was fired from TNA as well. He eventually began to fight back the orders of Roode, in part due to the advice of a mysterious “friend”. On the April 26, 2007 Impact!, the “friend” was revealed as Jeff Jarrett. Young eventually sued Roode for breach of contract and subsequently defeated Roode at Slammiversary via an inside cradle, after Gail Kim took out Ms. Brooks. At Victory Road, Young and Kim would defeat Roode and Ms. Brooks in a Mixed Tag Team match. Around this time, Young would be billed as from “Freedomland, USA”, a reference to Young being free from his contract with Roode.
