After regularly attending independent wrestling shows during his teenage years, he met "Vicious Vic" Grimes.[1] After keeping in contact with him, Hawxhurst eventually received full training from Grimes.[1] In 1999, Hawxhurst made his pro wrestling debut in Pensacola, Florida as Perry Douglas against Lightning Kid Jerry Riner.[1] Soon afterwards, he toured the United States independent circuit before being signed to a contract by Xtreme Pro Wrestling.[1] Upon his XPW debut, Hawxhurst, under the ring name Altar Boy Luke, was placed in a tag team with Altar Boy Matthew to form The Altar Boys.[1] To further emphasize their characters, both Luke and Matthew shaved their heads and wore white preaching robes. After Matthew left XPW due to family issues, Luke was left on his own to become a singles wrestler.[1]

Soon after the end of The Altar Boys, Luke became a singles wrestler and took part in the final King of the Deathmatch Tournament to crown a new King of the Deathmatch Champion. He won his first round match by beating Vinnie Massaro, but lost to Supreme in the second round.[1] Despite losing the tournament, Luke faced Supreme in a Bed of Light Tubes and Barbed Wire match at the Fallout event on October 5 and defeated him to win his first and only King of the Deathmatch Championship.[1] On December 21 at the Merry F'n X-Mas event, Luke lost the King of the Deathmatch Title to Supreme in a House of Horrors Match.[1]

On May 24, 2008 at XPW's reunion event, Cold Day In Hell, Hawx defeated Jack Evans and Scorpio Sky in a three-way match.[4] On August 22, 2009 at XPW's 10 Year Anniversary show, Hawx and Sky defeated Matt Cross and Tool in a tag team match.[4]
