Curt HawkinsStats 
Curt Hawkins, hailing from Long Island, N.Y., first gained prominence by hitching his wagon, along with partner Zack Ryder, to a major star: The Rated-R Superstar, Edge.
After helping The Ultimate Opportunist regain the World Heavyweight Championship at Armageddon, Hawkins was firmly entrenched in The Rated-R Camp.
Hawkins & Ryder soon began a respectable run as the WWE Tag Team Champions, after winning the titles at The Great American Bash. Now, Hawkins is flying solo on SmackDown, looking to make a major singles impact on the Friday night brand.
