"Phenomena" Derek Edwards, trained by High Flyer in the year 2000 during his knee surgery, was one of three (Josh Klein & Noah Hawkins were the other two) to graduate. Following this, Klein and Edwards formed a partnership called the Disposable Heroes, and won the IML3 Tag Team Championship. In 2000, Edwards wrestled in GWA and held the Cruiserweight Championship a few times. However, despite all of this, they were never called up to the main IWO league. Relegated to the IWO's "Developmental Roster" for most of their career, they only came on as jobbers in 2002 for the tag division, and then as a competitive team in 2003.
