Professional wrestling career
Early career (2007–2012)
Evie made her professional wrestling debut in December 2007 for an Auckland based company, Impact Pro Wrestling.[3]
In September 2011, she debuted in a Sydney based company Pro Wrestling Alliance (PWA) for their annual PWWA show. She faced Kellie Skater in a one on one contest, picking up the win.[4] In August 2012, Evie became the first ever Impact Pro Wrestling NZ Woman's Champion, defeating Britenay and Megan-Kate in a triple threat match.[5] A week later, she won the Interim PWWA Championship tournament in the final against Jessie McKay to determine who would defend the belt while Madison Eagles was out with an injury.[6] She retained the title during her first defense against Kellie Skater as the main event of the 2012 PWWA show.[7]
2013–present
Evie made her debut for Shimmer Women Athletes at the SHIMMER 53 event in New Jersey on April 6, 2013; participating in a five-way match which she lost to Christina Von Eerie and also included Yuu Yamagata, Kalamity, and Rhia O'Reilly.[8] At SHIMMER 54 on April 13, Evie defeated Kimber Lee to pick up her first win for the promotion, but she was defeated by Mia Yim the next day at SHIMMER 56.[9][10]
On April 19, Evie made her debut for SHINE Wrestling in a losing effort at SHINE 9 against Mercedes Martinez.[11] In September, she faced Madison Eagles to determine the undisputed PWWA Champion in the main event of PWWA's 2013 show 'Champions United', and she won with a top rope double stomp.[12]
After Impact Pro Wrestling returned after a few months from folding in mid 2013,[13] all the previous title holders were stripped of their championships. Evie won the IPW Women's Championship back in December 2013 and aligned herself with a new heel faction called 'The Investment'.[14]
Evie began 2014 in Japan working on a three month contract awarded to her through Zero1 Pro Wrestling Australia. She was the first ever female to receive such a contract.[15] She competed with the promotion, DIANA. During her stay, Evie also teamed with Madison Eagles in a losing effort against 3G (Kellie Skater and Tomoka Nakagawa) for the SHIMMER Tag Championships as part of the Joshi4Hope show.[16]
In April, she traveled back to the United States, beginning her second tour in New Orleans. She competed against Hikaru Shida at the SHIMMER 62 ippv and was pinned after a running knee.[17] April 11 and 12 saw Evie head to Berwyn for SHIMMER volumes 63-66, where she managed to win both singles competition over Rhia O'Reilly (vol 63) and Nicole Matthews (vol 66).[18][19] At the Shine 18 iPPV on 20 April, Skater and Evie lost to defending champions the Lucha Sisters (Leva Bates and Mia Yim) for the Shine Wrestling Tag Team Championships.[20]
Other media
In September 2009, Evie starred in the music video for "Sweet December" by Auckland band 'These Four Walls'.[21] In April 2013, 20/20 aired a story which followed Evie on her lead up to her first tour in the United States.[22] Also that summer, she was similarly profiled on the Māori Television sports show Code.[23]
