Orndorff was the runner-up of the 1986 Royal Rumble and was eliminated by Barry Windham. During a house show, Orndorff and Heenan Family teammate Kamala defeated US Express to win the tag titles, they lost the titles to British Bulldogs at Wrestlemania 2.

Hogan welcomed babyfaces US Express into Heenan Family, a move no one in the stable was happy about, US Express tried to get the respect of Orndorff and Kamala specifically as they were the big Heenan Family team and wanted to get on their side, they just responded that if US Express win the tag titles, they'll think about it. US Express won the tag titles at Summerslam and were met with an ambush by Orndorff and Kamala, on the same night Hogan left Heenan Family and they proceeded to injure him. Their feud with US Express ended at G1 Finals with US Express's win. Kamala and Orndorff entered the tag team battle royal for the titles at Wrestlemania 3 and Orndorff was on the final 4 before getting eliminated.

At SNME May, Ultimate Warrior held an open challenge which was answered by Orndorff and Orndorff got squashed, Kamala came out to help his friend but Sting debuted and took care of them, all 4 were involved in the MITB match and Orndorff and Kamala cost Bladerunners the match, they defeated Bladerunners at Superstars but wanted another match at Summerslam, since Sting already had a match Warrior chose his partner as The Blue Blazer who defeated Orndorff and Kamala. Orndorff's last match on WWF was teaming up with Nick losing against Strike Force

## Pretty Wonderful(1992-1993)

Paul Orndorff debuted on WCW in May 1992 as Rick Rude issued an open challenge, Barry Windham came out and introduced Orndorff, Orndorff defeated Rude. Orndorff and Paul Roma entered as a new team in the CITL tag team match at Great American Bash but failed to win and Pretty Wonderful served as a lowercard team always being beaten by better teams and not being in relevant storylines.

They had their only win of 1993 at Battlebowl where they defeated the non team of Hawk and Terry Taylor, Orndorff was eliminated by Meng in the battlebowl battle royal. After this Orndorff left WCW feeling directionless
