Horowitz competed under a wrestling mask at WWF's 1993 Survivor Series as "The Red Knight", teaming with Shawn Michaels and the Black and Blue Knights to lose to Bret, Owen, Keith, and Bruce Hart. In 1995 he joined the WWF on a regular basis, and was given the gimmick of a career jobber who never won matches. Wearing suspenders, and a vest with an outline of a handprint on the back in the ring, and patting himself on the back as a self-congratulatory measure, Horowitz kayfabe shocked play-by-play commentator Jim Ross by pinning Bodydonna Skip in 1995, provoking Ross to shout "Horowitz wins!" into his microphone in disbelief. Horowitz faced the vengeful Skip in a match at SummerSlam 1995, which he also won. Following his victory, Horowitz formed a tag team with the newly turned face Hakushi (who he also beat in a match that no one expected him to win), who he attempted to Americanize. His short-lived, new-found success also earned him a spot in the 1996 Royal Rumble match, at the number 25 position, where he was eliminated by Owen Hart. During this time WWE played up Barry's Jewish heritage, including giving him as an entrance theme a rock version of the Jewish folk Song "Hava Nagila"
