Ray Gordy is one of the most popular and richest Professional Wrestler who was born on March 23, 1979 in Chattanooga, Tennessee, United States. Gordy is the son and brother of Terry Gordy (1961-192001), professional wrestler Miranda Gordy and professional wrestler Richard Slinger.

Jesse and Festus were the first to make their ECW debut. Festus and Armando Estrada, ECW General Manager, discussed the matter with the SmackDown! acting SmackDown! General Manager Vickie Guerrero. Jesse and Festus beat their first significant opponents, Elijah Burke’s team and Nunzio.

On the May 11, 2007 edition of SmackDown!, a vignette aired with Gordy as Jesse Dalton alongside fellow WWE developmental talent Drew Hankinson as Festus Dalton. It was reported on June 2, 2007 that the Dalton Boys gimmick was being changed by WWE. Jesse and Festus were put in traditional wrestling gear and transformed their gimmick to be a little less country. On the June 29, 2007 edition of SmackDown!, vignettes hyping the team of Jesse and Festus began to air.

They continued in a sporadic feud with Miz and Morrison for the rest of 2008, but also underwent a gimmick change which began on the September 12 edition of SmackDown. Jesse and Festus made their way to the ring, dressed in moving attire, and with a hand truck, large cardboard box and moving supplies. After an attack from Kenny Dykstra the duo proceeded to package Dykstra up and roll him away. The next week they did the same thing to Ryan Braddock and later the set of Carlito’s Cabana. The gimmick highlighted SmackDown’s move to MyNetworkTV, complete with overalls bearing the parodic company title of “MyMoving Company”. After the show’s move, however, they reverted to their previous gimmick.

Gordy signed a development contract with World Wrestling Entertainment in August 2005. On the December 9, 2005, episode of SmackDown!, Gordy made his television debut. He lost to The Boogeyman in less than a minute. Gordy was then assigned to Deep South Wrestling in 2006, under the ringname Ray Geezy, which is a white rapper gimmick that is based on Young Jeezy. Damian Steele was his partner. He contrasted Geezy’s African American, preppy, and well- spoken nature. Gordy gave up the gangsta gimmick and was renamed Cousin Ray. He also adopted a hillbilly look as he started working with Henry Godwinn at SmackDown.
