Timeline

2020

EC3 was drafted to the Raw brand as part of the Superstar Shake-up. In a dark match before the April 9 episode of SmackDown, EC3 was managed by Drake Maverick. However, Vince McMahon was reported to have disliked the match, so the partnership was not brought to television. Following that, he was mainly used in comedic roles, including being among the group of undercard wrestlers that competed for WWE 24/7 Championship. EC3 competed in the 51-man battle royal at Super ShowDown on June 7, his only main card pay-per-view appearance of the year, but he was the first competitor eliminated and the match was ultimately won by Mansoor. On the June 24 episode of Raw, EC3 pinned 24/7 Champion Cedric Alexander, to claim his first championship within the company, but quickly dropped it to R-Truth seconds later following a distraction by Carmella. EC3 would win the 24/7 Championship three more times in September, trading it back and forth with R-Truth across several house shows, becoming a four-time champion. On the September 23 episode of Raw, EC3 was quickly defeated by Rusev in a squash match. This would be EC3's last WWE appearance. In November, it was reported that EC3 was injured with a concussion. On April 15, 2020, EC3 was released from his WWE contract as part of budget cuts stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic.

After that event, EC3 began a brief feud with Lars Sullivan, after EC3 accused him of attacking Aleister Black. On the October 3 episode of NXT, EC3 faced Sullivan in a losing effort, ending their feud.
