During February 2019, Comoroto was announced as having signed with WWE. He reported to the WWE Performance Center as part of the February class of recruits, including wrestlers Karen Q, Rachael Ellering, Sam Shaw, Albert Hardie Jr., Trevor Lee, Jeffrey "Jeff" Parker, Matt Lee, Brendan Vink, Jermaine Haley and former football players Omari Palmer and Ricardo Miller. 
The following month, Comoroto made his in-ring debut during a March 15 live event, losing to Australian recruit Brendan Vink.

Between August and September, Ogarelli joined Rik Bugez as a tag team in matches during the live events. They wrestled against teams including The Outliers and team 3.0.

In 2020, Ogarelli wrestled his last match at a March 6 live event teaming with recent recruit Denzel Dejournette in a tag match won by Cezar Bononi & Tino Sabbatelli. As a result of WWE cutting its budget stemming from the 2020 COVID-19 Pandemic, Ogarelli was one of many wrestlers released largely during the month of April. During his time in WWE, Ogarelli never appeared on television.
