The two did not properly team, until November 2008, when a heroic group called The TNA Front Line was formed to oppose Main Event Mafia, a villainous group. Lethal and Creed joined Front Line and became a permanent tag team. The team was initially known simply by their ring names. At Final Resolution in December 2008, Lethal won one of the Feast or Fired briefcases in the Feast or Fired match. The briefcase contained a TNA World Tag Team Championship shot.{{cite web|url=http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/results/tnappv/finalresolution08b/|title=Final Resolution (December 2008) Results|publisher=Online World of Wrestling|accessdate=2009-09-07|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20131221234107/http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/results/tnappv/finalresolution08b/|archivedate=2013-12-21}} On January 8, 2009 episode of Impact!, Lethal cashed in his title shot, by teaming with his tag team partner, Creed.

During this time, Motor City Machineguns left Frontline, beginning a feud between with the newly renamed "Lethal Consequences" and Machineguns. On February 5 episode of Impact!, Lethal Consequences had a match with Machineguns. During Creed's entrance, he was attacked by Beer Money, causing him to be replaced by Eric Young, with whom Lethal won the match.{{cite web|url=http://slam.canoe.ca/Slam/Wrestling/2009/02/06/8285546.html|archive-url=https://archive.today/20120716040720/http://slam.canoe.ca/Slam/Wrestling/2009/02/06/8285546.html|url-status=usurped|archive-date=July 16, 2012|title=Impact: A final build to Against All Odds|date=February 6, 2009|last=Sokol|first=Chris|author2=Sokol, Bryan |accessdate=April 14, 2012|work=Slam!
