Donovan was one of the first signings to WWE ID, a program WWE revealed last year as a way to partner with up-and-coming independent wrestlers and indie schools.
While continuing to work the U.S. indies, where he has appeared frequently since 2016, Donovan also made appearances on EVOLVE, the weekly developmental TV show WWE launched in early 2025. He was part of the Jackson Drake-led Vanity Project faction, working seven matchups on the show this year.
Donovan’s last appearance was on Wednesday’s EVOLVE special, “Succession,” where he lost a title matchup to Drake.
Numerous WWE ID talents have left the company this month, along with many other cuts to the company’s developmental tier of talent. Zara Zakher, Kylie Rae, and Zayda Steel have all confirmed their departures from WWE ID.
Stevie Turner, Summer Sorrell, Ridge Holland, Jin Tala, Wes Lee, Lance Anoa’i, Drako Knox, Haze Jameson, Braydon Ray, and Jamar Hampton have all also left the promotion in recent days as well.
