Now that Reks has quit to be with his wife and baby, what is next for Hawkins so that he doesn't fall back in irrelevancy?

Personally I'd say put him back with Ryder, the two have great charisma and are very well synced in the ring. They are also former tag champs and could work well in the tag team division today.

They could then be connected to Brodus in some way. Brodus is in a feud with Sandow, something Ryder also has experience with. Let Sandow cut into Hawkins for his stripper gig last week and then set up a feud. Have Sandow attack Brodus and Ryder and Hawkins make the save. Sandow gets some associates and have a six man feud. Ryder, Hawkins and Brodus would be like a new Too Cool. Something that is proven to be popular, Brodus can go for a mid card title and Ryder and Hawkins can feud with the PTP for the tag team titles.

What would you do with him?

I think someone suggested it on here, but I would have him with Heath Slater.

I think the idea of teaming up Ryder and Hawkins is a good one but both of their characters have shifted. Ryder is now a face and Hawkins is still a heel and I don't think WWE will turn Hawkins face. I think the likely scenario is that Hawkins becomes a lower midcard heel or gets into a tag team with someone like Jack Swagger or David Otunga.

Is Hawkins really a heel though? He doesn't ever have a match, he cuts funny promos backstage not heel ones... it will be easy to pair him and Ryder up.

Great idea.

A face Hawkins and Ryder doesn't seem like a bad idea, and Hawkins can probably roll with the Broski shtick.

I also thought about the same tag team.. ryder and hawkins.. they would work well together.. it would only take one match to get hawkins over if he's teamed with ryder :p

Ryder's very over for a midcard face, turning him would be stupid in my opinion.

Okay, I was just putting it out there. I mean after all him and Hawkins were both heel when they were working with Edge.
