World Wrestling Federation/Entertainment
When WCW was purchased by WWF in 2001, Storm's contract was kept and he became a WWF employee.[1] Lance Storm, portrayed as a serious, humorless heel, was in the WCW Alliance and was their first WCW superstar ever to invade a WWF program: the May 28, 2001 episode of RAW.[1] Lance Storm got a decent push during The Invasion angle as he won the WWF Intercontinental Championship from Albert on the July 23, 2001 edition of RAW. He lost the title a month later to Edge at SummerSlam 2001 on August 19, 2001.
Storm formed a tag team with The Hurricane and feuded with the Hardy Boyz over the WWF and WCW Tag Team Titles for the next few months including a match at No Mercy 2001, with Storm losing the outcome. Eventually, Team Alliance lost at Survivor Series 2001, and Storm was fired along with the rest of the alliance roster (in kayfabe) by Vince McMahon. Storm eventually got his job back officially on the December 17, 2001 edition of RAW when Storm defeated The Rock with help from Test in a match that earned him a WWF contract. Storm remained a heel, and in 2002, he formed The Un-Americans along with Christian, Test, and later William Regal.[1] Leading angry tirades against the United States and waving an inverted American flag in the ring, they drew loud boos from the crowds. During this angle, Storm and Christian won the World Tag Team Championship on July 21 at Vengeance 2002, defeating Hulk Hogan and Edge. They dropped the title to Kane and The Hurricane on the September 23, 2002 edition of RAW. Eventually, the stable broke apart on September 30, when they brawled with each other because they were frustrated that they all had lost on the same night.
Lance Storm continued teaming with William Regal as a regular tag team with the same Anti-American gimmick; Storm waved the Canadian flag and Regal waved the British flag. The duo won the World Tag Team Championship on two separate occasions. The first was by defeating Booker T and Goldust on the January 6, 2003 edition of RAW with help from Chief Morley, but they lost the titles at the Royal Rumble 2003 to The Dudley Boyz. Storm and Regal won their second reign as World Tag Team Champions the next night on RAW by defeating The Dudley Boyz with help from Chief Morley again. It was announced by Chief Morley on the March 24, 2003 edition of RAW that because of William Regal's health problems the belts had not been defended in 30 days so Lance Storm and William Regal were stripped of the title. He immediately awarded himself and Lance Storm the new World Tag Team Champions starting Lance Storm's 4th tag team title reign. Storm and Morley successfully defended the World Tag Team Title on an edition of WWE Heat prior to WrestleMania XIX against Rob Van Dam and Kane with help from The Dudley Boyz. The following night on the March 31, 2003 edition of RAW, Storm and Morley faced Kane and Rob Van Dam and The Dudley Boyz in a 3-Way Elimination match, dropping the title to Kane and Rob Van Dam.
From here, the WWE never booked Storm in any major storylines, to the disapproval of smark wrestling fans (dubbed "Storm Troopers" by Storm) with whom he had gained popularity thanks in part to his personal website, stormwrestling.com. Storm was briefly involved in a storyline in which Stone Cold Steve Austin, an authority figure, encouraged the fans to chant "boring" during Storm's matches (this includes the one with Storm facing against newcomer Garrison Cade on June 16, 2003), which led to concern about "X-Pac heat". Storm eventually found help from Goldust to help his charisma and turned babyface, started dancing, and once again started hanging out with Val Venis. This new reformed team of babyfaces began entering the ring with very attractive women but this time their tag team never got a push.
Storm eventually turned heel once more on an episode of RAW following the 2004 Draft Lottery, only to be squashed by Rhyno immediately thereafter. This was his last appearance on RAW to date.
Semi-retirement
In April 2004, Storm chose to retire from in-ring action due to a chronically bad back. His last match was on April 19, 2004 and he faced Steven Richards at the Calgary Saddledome. He then accepted a position backstage with WWE, working as a wrestling trainer in Ohio Valley Wrestling, WWE's main developmental territory.
This was not his first experience as a trainer. He had also trained Justin Credible, and had helped Fit Finlay to work on the skills of female wrestlers including Trish Stratus in an unofficial capacity. Storm has often mentioned on his website how proud he is of the achievements of the WWE women's division during the period of his involvement.
On March 23, 2005, Storm came out of retirement to participate in a six-man tag team match with Joey Mercury and Johnny Nitro against fellow ECW alumni Tommy Dreamer and The Dudley Boyz. On April 9, 2005 in Cloverport, Kentucky, Storm teamed with Matt Cappotelli to face Matthews and Nitro once more.
Storm resigned from WWE in May 2005 and announced that he intended to open his own training school in his hometown of Calgary, the Storm Wrestling Academy, with the first semester beginning in September 2005. He returned to WWE for one night on May 30, 2005 and faced Maven on Sunday Night HEAT. Storm wrestled one last time on a WWE-promoted show at ECW One Night Stand 2005 on June 12, 2005, where he defeated his close friend and former tag team partner Chris Jericho with the help of Justin Credible. Later that evening, the Impact Players, along with Francine, attacked Tommy Dreamer and The Sandman during their bout with The Dudley Boyz, but were chased away by Beulah McGillicutty.
Since leaving WWE, Storm has made several appearances on the independent circuit. At Hardcore Homecoming on November 4, 2005 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Storm interfered in a steel cage match between Justin Credible and Jerry Lynn, helping Credible defeat Lynn. At the December 3, 2005 Ring of Honor show Steel Cage Warfare in New York, New York, Storm congratulated ROH World Champion Bryan Danielson following a successful title defense against Rocky Romero. Storm has also stated that he would be receptive to working with Total Nonstop Action Wrestling if he was presented with an angle that piqued his interest, such as one involving his friends Christian and Chris Jericho.
On April 1, 2006, Storm returned to Ring of Honor to face Bryan Danielson for the ROH World Championship in Chicago, Illinois. Prior to the event, Storm would commend Bryan Danielson and say that he is the one person to make him come out of retirement. Danielson defeated Storm by submission to retain the title.[2] ROH fans were appreciative of Storm's efforts and chanted "You've still got it" as a tribute.
Storm currently writes a monthly column for British wrestling and MMA magazine FIGHTING SPIRIT.
Lance Storm has made rare indy appearances for Northern Ontario based Promotion Blood Sweat and Ears. Dates include December 3, 2006 in Mississauga, Ontario, July 21, 2007 in Timmins, Ontario, and his Hometown Homecoming August 11, 2007 in North Bay, Ontario. His opponents for the shows were Christian Cage, Christopher Daniels, and Robert Roode, respectively. Evers expressed a desire that his Hometown Homecoming match be his last match, although he added "Never Say Never."
Storm recently has been added to the WWE Alumni section on WWE.com
