Ring of Honor (2017–2021)
In 2017, Holidead debuted in Ring of Honor Wrestling (ROH), in a One-on-one match against Sumie Sakai but was unsuccessful.[1] Afterwards Holidead entered the Women of Honor Championship tournament in 2018 but lost to Deonna Purrazzo in the first round via submission.[2]
In 2021 Holiday returned to Ring of Honor but this time it was to enter the ROH Women's World Championship tournament after the ROH Women of Honor title had been retired due to then Kelly Klein's contract dispute with the ROH owner. Holidead returned in the ROH Women's World Title tournament against Max the Impaler but was unsuccessful as Max The Impaler defeated her in the One-on-one female powerhouse match-up via pinfall.[3]
Afterwards Holidead had a couple of good ROH Women's matches in ROH even facing Rok-C in a One-on-one match for the ROH Women's World Championship (Which Holidead was not successful at winning)[4] but later disappeared from Ring of Honor.[5][6][4]
Major League Wrestling (2021–2022)
On the September 22, 2021, episode of Fusion: Alpha, MLW officially announced the launch of its women's featherweight division and Holidead was introduced as one of the first female wrestlers on the roster.[7][8] On April 21, 2022, MLW announced that the MLW Women's Featherweight Championship would be decided at Kings of Colosseum, when dominant force Holidead faces the returning Taya Valkyrie.[9] At the event, Valkyrie won the title.[10]
