On January 9, The Platoon officially underwent a name change and became known as The Coalition. Further changes followed, including the addition of Crimson to the team. With Crimson's partnership, Wayne successfully challenged for the OVW Southern Tag Team titles facing the team of the Mascara Mafia for the number 1 contender spot. Wayne and Crimson then faced the tag champions of Team GutCheck (Alex Silva and Sam Shaw) and won the titles on January 23 on episode #700 of OVW TV. They still retain the titles since this time.

Since the renaming of Wayne's stable, The Coalition has expanded to include Ghillie Man. Gillie Man joined Joe Coleman and Wayne in a match against James Thomas, Johnny Spade and Randy Royal on episode #704 of OVW TV on February 13.
