Hawkins was released by WWE as part of the company-wide cutbacks on April 15. He previously wrestled for WrestlePro during his last Independent run in 2016 before re-signing with WWE.
WrestlePro owner Kevin Matthews announced in April that the promotion would stop running events until September due to the coronavirus pandemic.
