Conway made his proper debut for the company on the August 18, 2003, episode ofRaw,plantedin the audience dressed as anAmerican airman.[8]After Conway was "harassed" by theheeltag teamLa Résistance (Sylvain GrenierandRené Duprée), he was invited into the ring byThe Dudley Boyz,who were thenfeudingwith La Résistance.[8]While "celebrating" with the Dudley Boyz and waving theAmerican flag,Conway suddenly hit them both with the flagpole, revealing himself to be a member of La Résistance.[8]The trio feuded with several tag teams, including the Dudley Boyz,Hurricane and Rosey,andGarrison CadeandMark Jindrak.When Grenier suffered a back injury in October 2003, Dupree and Conway held the group together until the March 15, 2004 edition ofRawwhen Grenier returned. The trio did not last long after that, however, as Dupree was drafted toSmackDown!on March 22, 2004, during theDraft Lottery.

Grenier and Conway, however, continued to team together as La Résistance onRaw.WithAmerican-Franco hostilitysubsiding, the WWE ceased billing the team as being from France and instead promoted them as being haughtyFrench Canadianswho carried theflag of Quebecto the ring, with Grenier often singing theCanadian national anthemand Conway becoming known asRobért Conway,the French version of his name. The team held theWorld Tag Team Championshipthree times. Their first title reign came when they defeatedChris BenoitandEdgeon the May 31, 2004 edition ofRawin Grenier's home town of Montreal, Quebec.[9]The team dropped the belts to the same team of Benoit and Edge atTaboo Tuesdayon October 19 when, even though Edge walked out on Benoit, Benoit was able to defeat La Résistance by himself.[10]It was not long before La Résistance reclaimed the tag team gold for the second time on the November 1 edition ofRaw,defeating Chris Benoit after Edge walked out on Benoit again.[11]This time La Résistance did not hold the title as long as their last reign; they lost the belts two weeks later onRawwhen they faced the team ofWilliam Regaland Eugene as well asTajiriandRhyno.[12]

In a 3-Way Elimination match, they dropped the title to Regal and Eugene. Their third, and final, Tag Team Title reign began at aRawbrandhouse showon January 16, 2005, in Winnipeg, Manitoba when they defeated Regal andJonathan Coachman—Regal's actual partner, Eugene, had been injured and Coachman was selected to be his fill in partner, though Regal never tagged him in—to win the belts.[2]La Résistance dropped the belts again a few weeks later on the February 7, edition ofRaw,from Tokyo, Japan, to William Regal and his new tag team partner Tajiri.[13]

La Résistance repeatedly attempted to regain the gold (mainly onHeat) from Regal and Tajiri in a number of different matches but fell just short each time.[14][15]During their "last shot" the team thought they had won back the title only to have thedecision reversedby refereeMike Chiodadue to La Résistance not pinning the legal man. The match was restarted but La Résistance lost the match and theirlast chanceagainst Regal and Tajiri in a normal tag team contest. The team was given one more chance at Regal and Tajiri, only this time during aTag Team Turmoil matchincluding five teams—La Résistance, Regal and Tajiri,The Heart Throbs(Romeo RoselliandAntonio Thomas),Simon DeanandMaven,and Rosey and The Hurricane, atBacklash.[16]During the match La Résistance managed to eliminate the champions, but were defeated by the last remaining team (and winners of the match) Hurricane and Rosey.[16]

Singles competition (2005–2006)[edit]

The team split in mid-May after repeatedly quarreling over which of them was the superior wrestler.[17]Grenier and Conway went into singles competition with announcers claiming that the members of La Résistance were trying to "one up" each other in singles matches without the other man in their corner. This saw Conway defeat ajobberandVal Venis,while Grenier was defeated by both Venis andChris Jericho.Both men competed in atriple threat matchagainstIntercontinental ChampionShelton Benjaminfor the title; Benjamin won the match not long after the La Résistance members began to argue and fight with each other.[18]This altercation led to a main event match for the June 12Heat(taped on June 6) in which Rob Conway portrayed the heel, and defeated Grenier.[19]On June 30, 2005, Grenier was a last minute trade in the 2005 WWE Draft, sending him to SmackDown! while Conway stayed on the Raw brand. Conway then began wrestling in singles competition on bothHeatandRaw.
