====Early appearances (2000–2003)====
Conway had dark matches previously with [[Kurt Angle]] and [[Mosh (wrestler)|Headbanger Mosh]], then known as Beaver Cleavage. Conway's TV debut in the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) was on the May 20, 2000, episode of ''[[WWE Jakked/Metal|Jakked]]'', where he was defeated by Bull Buchanan.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/results/wwe/jakked.html|title=WWF Jakked Results - 2000: May 20, 2000|date=2000-05-20|access-date=2008-10-18|publisher=Online World Of Wrestling}}</ref> Over the next three years, Conway appeared in tryout matches on ''[[WWE Velocity|Velocity]]'' and ''[[WWE Heat|Sunday Night Heat]]'', losing to wrestlers such as [[Matt Bloom|A-Train]], [[Randy Orton]], and [[Gregory Helms|The Hurricane]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/results/raw/030714.html|title=WWE Raw Results - July 14, 2003 - Heat Tapings|date=2003-07-14|access-date=2008-10-18|publisher=Online World Of Wrestling}}</ref>

In a match taped for the July 17, 2003 episode of ''[[WWE SmackDown|SmackDown!]]'', Rob Conway and Nick Dinsmore appeared under [[Lucha libre|masks]] as "[[Los Conquistadores]]", losing to [[Rey Mysterio]] and [[Billy Kidman]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/results/smackdown/030717.html|title=WWE SmackDown! Results - July 17, 2003|date=2003-07-17|access-date=2008-10-18|publisher=Online World Of Wrestling}}</ref> On July 27, at [[Vengeance (2003)|Vengeance]], Conway once again competed as the masked Conquistador, this time with [[Johnny Jeter]] as his partner, as part of the [[Acolytes Protection Agency|APA]] [[Professional wrestling match types#Backstage Brawl|Bar Room Brawl]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/results/wweppv/vengeance03.html|title=WWE PPV Wrestling Results - Vengeance 2003|date=2003-07-27|access-date=2008-10-17|publisher=Online World Of Wrestling}}</ref>

====La Résistance (2003–2005)====
{{Main|La Résistance (professional wrestling)|l1=La Résistance}}
Conway made his proper debut for the company on the August 18, 2003, episode of ''[[WWE Raw|Raw]]'', [[Glossary of professional wrestling terms#Plant|planted]] in the audience dressed as an [[United States Air Force|American airman]].<ref name="Rawdebut">{{cite web|url=http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/results/raw/030818.html|title=WWE Raw Results - August 18, 2003|date=2003-08-18|access-date=2008-10-18|publisher=Online World Of Wrestling}}</ref> After Conway was "harassed" by the [[Heel (professional wrestling)|heel]] [[tag team]] La Résistance ([[Sylvain Grenier]] and [[René Duprée]]), he was invited into the ring by [[Dudley Boyz|The Dudley Boyz]], who were then [[Feud (professional wrestling)|feuding]] with La Résistance.<ref name="Rawdebut"/> While "celebrating" with the Dudley Boyz and waving the [[Flag of the United States|American flag]], Conway suddenly hit them both with the flagpole, revealing himself to be a member of La Résistance.<ref name="Rawdebut"/> The trio feuded with several tag teams, including the Dudley Boyz, [[Hurricane and Rosey]], and [[Lance Cade|Garrison Cade]] and [[Mark Jindrak]]. When Grenier suffered a back injury in October 2003, Dupree and Conway held the group together until the March 15, 2004 edition of ''Raw'' when Grenier returned. The trio did not last long after that, however, as Dupree was drafted to [[SmackDown (WWE brand)|SmackDown!]] on March 22, 2004, during the [[WWE Brand Extension#March 2004 (Draft Lottery)|Draft Lottery]].

[[Image:Rob Conway.jpg|left|thumb|150px|Conway making his entrance at a [[house show]] in 2005]]
Grenier and Conway, however, continued to team together as La Résistance on ''Raw''. With [[Anti-French sentiment in the United States|American-Franco hostility]] subsiding, the WWE ceased billing the team as being from France and instead promoted them as being haughty [[French Canadian]]s who carried the [[flag of Quebec]] to the ring, with Grenier often singing the [[O Canada|Canadian national anthem]] and Conway becoming known as '''Robért Conway''', the French version of his name. The team held the [[World Tag Team Championship (WWE, 1971–2010)|World Tag Team Championship]] three times. Their first title reign came when they defeated [[Chris Benoit]] and [[Edge (wrestler)|Edge]] on the May 31, 2004 edition of ''Raw'' in Grenier's home town of Montreal, Quebec.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/results/raw/040531.html|title=WWE Raw Results - May 31, 2004|date=2004-05-31|access-date=2008-10-19|publisher=Online World Of Wrestling}}</ref> The team dropped the belts to the same team of Benoit and Edge at [[Taboo Tuesday (2004)|Taboo Tuesday]] on October 19 when, even though Edge walked out on Benoit, Benoit was able to defeat La Résistance by himself.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://slam.canoe.ca/Slam/Wrestling/PPVReports/2004/10/20/788799.html|archive-url=https://archive.today/20120630052248/http://slam.canoe.ca/Slam/Wrestling/PPVReports/2004/10/20/788799.html|url-status=usurped|archive-date=June 30, 2012|title=Nothing Taboo at Tuesday PPV|date=2004-10-04|last=Sokol|first=Chris|access-date=2008-10-18|publisher=SLAM! Sports}}</ref> It was not long before La Résistance reclaimed the tag team gold for the second time on the November 1 edition of ''Raw'', defeating Chris Benoit after Edge walked out on Benoit again.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/results/raw/041101.html|title=WWE Raw Results - November 1, 2004|date=2004-11-01|access-date=2008-10-19|publisher=Online World Of Wrestling}}</ref> This time La Résistance did not hold the title as long as their last reign; they lost the belts two weeks later on ''Raw'' when they faced the team of [[William Regal]] and Eugene as well as [[Yoshihiro Tajiri|Tajiri]] and [[Rhyno]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/results/raw/041115.html|title=WWE Raw Results - November 15, 2004|date=2004-11-15|access-date=2008-10-19|publisher=Online World Of Wrestling}}</ref>

In a 3-Way Elimination match, they dropped the title to Regal and Eugene. Their third, and final, Tag Team Title reign began at a [[Raw (WWE brand)|Raw]] brand [[house show]] on January 16, 2005, in Winnipeg, Manitoba when they defeated Regal and [[Jonathan Coachman]]—Regal's actual partner, Eugene, had been injured and Coachman was selected to be his fill in partner, though Regal never tagged him in—to win the belts.<ref name="OWOW"/> La Résistance dropped the belts again a few weeks later on the February 7, edition of ''Raw'', from Tokyo, Japan, to William Regal and his new tag team partner Tajiri.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/results/raw/050207.html|title=WWE Raw Results - February 7, 2005|date=2005-02-07|access-date=2008-10-19|publisher=Online World Of Wrestling}}</ref>

La Résistance repeatedly attempted to regain the gold (mainly on ''Heat'') from Regal and Tajiri in a number of different matches but fell just short each time.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/results/raw/050214.html|title=WWE Raw Results - February 14, 2005|date=2005-02-14|access-date=2008-10-19|publisher=Online World Of Wrestling}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/results/raw/050328.html|title=WWE Raw Results - March 28, 2005|date=2005-03-28|access-date=2008-10-19|publisher=Online World Of Wrestling}}</ref> During their "last shot" the team thought they had won back the title only to have the [[glossary of professional wrestling terms#Dusty finish|decision reversed]] by referee [[Mike Chioda]] due to La Résistance not pinning the legal man. The match was restarted but La Résistance lost the match and their [[professional wrestling match types#Last Chance Match|last chance]] against Regal and Tajiri in a normal tag team contest. The team was given one more chance at Regal and Tajiri, only this time during a [[Professional wrestling match types#Gauntlet match|Tag Team Turmoil match]] including five teams—La Résistance, Regal and Tajiri, [[The Heart Throbs]] ([[Romeo Roselli]] and [[Tom Matera|Antonio Thomas]]), [[Mike Bucci|Simon Dean]] and [[Maven Huffman|Maven]], and Rosey and The Hurricane, at [[Backlash (2005)|Backlash]].<ref name="backlash05">{{cite web|url=http://slam.canoe.ca/Slam/Wrestling/PPVReports/2005/05/02/1021811.html|archive-url=https://archive.today/20120630060044/http://slam.canoe.ca/Slam/Wrestling/PPVReports/2005/05/02/1021811.html|url-status=usurped|archive-date=June 30, 2012|title=Hulkamania rules Backlash|date=2005-05-02|last=Sokol|first=Chris|access-date=2008-10-19|publisher=SLAM! Sports}}</ref> During the match La Résistance managed to eliminate the champions, but were defeated by the last remaining team (and winners of the match) Hurricane and Rosey.<ref name="backlash05"/>

====Singles competition (2005–2006)====
The team split in mid-May after repeatedly quarreling over which of them was the superior wrestler.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/results/raw/050509.html|title=WWE Raw Results - May 9, 2005|date=2005-05-09|access-date=2008-10-18|publisher=Online World Of Wrestling}}</ref> Grenier and Conway went into singles competition with announcers claiming that the members of La Résistance were trying to "one up" each other in singles matches without the other man in their corner. This saw Conway defeat a [[Job (professional wrestling)#Jobbers|jobber]] and [[Val Venis]], while Grenier was defeated by both Venis and [[Chris Jericho]]. Both men competed in a [[Professional wrestling match types#Basic non-elimination matches|triple threat match]] against [[WWE Intercontinental Championship|Intercontinental Champion]] [[Shelton Benjamin]] for the title; Benjamin won the match not long after the La Résistance members began to argue and fight with each other.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/results/raw/050530.html|title=WWE Raw Results - May 30, 2005|date=2005-05-30|access-date=2008-10-18|publisher=Online World Of Wrestling}}</ref> This altercation led to a main event match for the June 12 ''Heat'' (taped on June 6) in which Rob Conway portrayed the heel, and defeated Grenier.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/results/raw/050606.html|title=WWE Raw Results - June 6, 2005|date=2005-06-06|access-date=2008-10-18|publisher=Online World Of Wrestling}}</ref> On June 30, 2005, Grenier was a last minute trade in the 2005 WWE Draft, sending him to SmackDown! while Conway stayed on the Raw brand. Conway then began wrestling in singles competition on both ''Heat'' and ''Raw''.

[[File:Rob Conway & Eugene (159935765).jpg|thumb|right|Conway wrestling [[Eugene (wrestler)|Eugene]] in October 2005]]
On the July 17, 2005 edition of ''Heat'' Conway brought back his original identity of Rob Conway, making his new [[Glossary of professional wrestling terms#Gimmick|gimmick]] a [[Narcissism|narcissistic]] heel and developing a new appearance (similar to [[Buff Bagwell]]) including a biker hat, sunglasses, a mustache, see through tights, and a new haircut. He began referring to himself as "The Con-Man" Rob Conway.<ref name="OWOW">{{cite web|url=http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/profiles/r/rob-conway.html|title=Rob Conway Profile|access-date=2008-10-18|publisher=Online World Of Wrestling}}</ref> During the ''WWE Homecoming'' edition of ''Raw'', Conway interrupted a segment involving a number of WWE Legends.

During this time he would go on to begin feuding with Eugene, a big fan of the legends who stuck up for them.<ref name="Eugene feud"/><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.wwe.com/shows/raw/archive/10312005/|title=Tricks and treats|date=2005-10-31|access-date=2008-10-18|publisher=WWE}}</ref> At the [[Taboo Tuesday (2005)|Taboo Tuesday]] pay-per-view, Conway teamed with [[Travis Tomko|Tomko]] to face Eugene and a legend (as voted for by the fans).<ref name="TT05">{{cite web|url=http://slam.canoe.ca/Slam/Wrestling/PPVReports/2005/11/02/1289908.html|title=Taboo Tuesday delivers decently|date=2005-11-02|last=Sokol|first=Chris|access-date=2008-10-18|publisher=SLAM!

After losing to Flair, Conway went on a long losing streak, losing almost every match he was in through the rest of the 2005 and the start of 2006. Conway went back to competing on ''Sunday Night Heat'' making few appearances on ''Raw'' and losing on every occasion. On the April 10, 2006 edition of ''Raw'', Conway debuted a slightly changed look, including longer hair, no mustache, and blonde highlighted hair, in a loss to [[Rob Van Dam]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.wwe.com/shows/raw/archive/04102006/|title=Cena answers with an STFU|date=2006-04-10|access-date=2008-10-18|publisher=WWE}}</ref> Conway finally broke his losing streak for one night only on the May 12, 2006 edition of ''Heat'' when he won a mixed tag team match with [[Lisa Marie Varon|Victoria]] against the team of [[Viscera (wrestler)|Viscera]] and [[Torrie Wilson]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/results/raw/060508.html|title=WWE Raw Results - May 8, 2006|date=2006-05-08|access-date=2008-10-18|publisher=Online World Of Wrestling}}</ref> It was short lived, however, as the next week he was defeated by Jim Duggan, restarting his losing streak but starting a short program with Duggan and his protege Eugene.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/results/raw/060515.html|title=WWE Raw Results - May 15, 2006|date=2006-05-15|access-date=2008-10-18|publisher=Online World Of Wrestling}}</ref> At the start of August, Conway dropped the Con-Man Gimmick as he stopped wearing sunglasses and his ego dropped. From this point on, Conway was used as a [[Glossary of professional wrestling terms#Tweener|tweener]] who was desperate to pick up a victory over anyone possible but failed every time he tried.

====Return to OVW and Raw (2006–2007)====
On the November 15 edition of [[Ohio Valley Wrestling]] (OVW), Conway made a surprise appearance, teaming with Sylvain Grenier to reform their old stable, La Résistance.<ref name="Nov15OVW">{{cite web|url=http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/results/ovw/_2006/|title=November 15, 2006 – OVW TV Tapings|date=2006-11-15|access-date=2008-10-19|publisher=Online World Of Wrestling}}</ref> The reformed team defeated [[Cody Rhodes|Cody Runnels]] and [[Tye Dillinger|Shawn Spears]] to earn a shot at the [[OVW Southern Tag Team Championship|OVW Southern Tag Team Titles]].<ref name="Nov15OVW"/> The team, however, lost the title match.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/results/ovw/_2006/|title=November 22, 2006 – OVW TV Tapings|date=2008-11-15|access-date=2008-10-19|publisher=Online World Of Wrestling}}</ref>

==Personal life==
Rob graduated from [[New Albany High School (Indiana)|Indiana's New Albany High School]] in 1990 where he was a standout basketball player.  He later played basketball at the now defunct Graceland College in New Albany.  Following college, Rob sold fitness equipment and worked as a personal trainer in the [[Southern Indiana]]/[[Louisville, Kentucky|Louisville]] area.  He broke into wrestling after driving past the old [[Daniel Briley|Danny Davis]] arena in [[Jeffersonville, Indiana]] in 1997. After walking in and watching what he considered out of shape guys wrestle, he thought he would give it a try. Rob stated in a 2004 [[Indianapolis Monthly]] article that within five minutes of being in the ring, he knew this was what he wanted to do. Based on the appearance of the local wrestlers, he thought it would only take six months to make it to the [[WWE]] (then WWF); it eventually took him six years.{{citation needed|date=July 2022}}
