NXT (2018–2021)

In November 2016, Menzies attended a WWE tryout in Scotland. In May 2018, it was announced that he had signed with WWE. He debuted at an NXT live event on 28 July, defeating Mars Wang. On 29 August episode of NXT, he made his televised debut in a losing effort to Keith Lee. On 21 November 2019, he made his television debut for the NXT UK brand under the ring name Ridge Holland, defeating Oliver Carter.

On 7 August 2020 episode of NXT, Holland made his first appearance for the brand since 2018, taking part in a triple threat match against Oney Lorcan and Damian Priest in which the winner would go on to NXT TakeOver XXX to compete in a ladder match for the vacant NXT North American Championship, which Priest won. Dexter Lumis was soon pulled out of the ladder match at NXT TakeOver XXX due to an ankle injury, and since Holland was not pinned or submitted in his qualifying match as a result of Lorcan being pinned, he was given the chance to face Johnny Gargano on the 19 August episode of NXT with the winner being added to the ladder match; he lost due to interference from Gargano's wife Candice LeRae.

At NXT TakeOver 31 on 4 October, after the main event of Kyle O'Reilly against Finn Bálor for the NXT Championship, he appeared at ringside carrying O'Reilly's unconscious Undisputed Era teammate Adam Cole over his shoulders, having apparently attacked Cole; he dropped Cole over the barricade in front of Bálor and O'Reilly before leaving, establishing himself as a heel. On 7 October episode of NXT, Holland brawled with Oney Lorcan and Danny Burch after defeating Burch in a match; as he caught Lorcan leaping over the top rope to deliver a cross-body, Holland's legs gave out from under him, and he had to be stretchered out of the arena, reportedly suffering an ankle dislocation and fracture in his left leg and a knee patellar dislocation and patellar tendon rupture in his right leg.

After a nine-month absence due to injury, Holland returned on 27 July 2021 episode of NXT, assisting Oney Lorcan and Pete Dunne in defeating Tommaso Ciampa and Timothy Thatcher and subsequently beat both men down post match, teasing an alliance between the three. On 7 September episode of NXT, Holland and Dunne attacked Lorcan and Danny Burch, ending their alliance. On 12 October episode of NXT 2.0, Holland wrestled his final match on NXT, where he and Dunne lost to Kyle O'Reilly and Von Wagner.

SmackDown (2021–2023)

 

As part of 2021 Draft, Holland was drafted to the SmackDown brand. On 5 November 2021 episode of SmackDown, during a backstage interview, Holland referred to Sheamus as his idol. On 19 November episode of SmackDown, Holland helped Sheamus defeat Cesaro, Ricochet, and Jinder Mahal in a four-way match, starting an alliance between the two. Holland made his main roster in-ring debut the following week on SmackDown, where he lost to Cesaro, as well as a battle royal to determine the #1 contender for the Universal Championship later that night. A rematch between Holland and Cesaro was set for 17 December episode of SmackDown, which Holland won. On 1 January 2022 at Day 1, Holland and Sheamus defeated Cesaro and Ricochet. During the match, Holland suffered a broken nose and was removed mid-match. On 11 March episode of SmackDown, Holland and Sheamus introduced Dunne, who was subsequently renamed "Butch", as part of their stable. On the same show, a match between the team of Sheamus and Holland and The New Day (Big E and Kofi Kingston) saw Holland delivering an overhead belly-to-belly suplex to Big E at ringside, resulting in Big E accidentally landing on the top of his head; he was placed onto a stretcher and taken to a hospital. On Night 2 of WrestleMania 38 on 3 April, Holland and Sheamus defeated The New Day (Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods) in a quick match.

Holland and Butch challenged for the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship and the NXT Tag Team Championship, but both times lost due to interference from Imperium. This led to a match at Extreme Rules where The Brawling Brutes defeated Imperium in a six-man tag team Good Old Fashioned Donnybrook match. On 5 November at Crown Jewel, Holland and Butch failed to win the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship from the Usos. Three weeks later at Survivor Series: WarGames on 26 November, The Brawling Brutes, along with Drew McIntyre and Kevin Owens, lost to The Bloodline in a WarGames match.

Return to NXT and hiatus (2023–present)

Holland returned to the NXT brand, where he challenged Ilja Dragunov for the NXT Championship. During the match, an angle was created when Dragunov was stretchered off after Holland suplexed him, emulating his incident with Big E. This led to a storyline where, on March 26 2024 episode of NXT, Holland announced he would be going on an indefinite hiatus from in-ring competition. On April 6, Holland appeared at the pre-show of NXT Stand & Deliver to attack Joe Gacy with a steel chair as Gacy was making his entrance for his match against Shawn Spears, turning heel again.
