Matthews was originally convinced to try a career in professional wrestling by her friend, male wrestler Sid Sylum.[1] She made her professional wrestling debut in February 2006 alongside fellow trainee Veronika Vice.[1][2] In March and September 2006, Matthews began wrestling for SuperGirls Wrestling, part of NWA: Extreme Canadian Championship Wrestling. On October 27, 2007, she defeated Nattie Neidhart and Vice in a three-way match for the SuperGirls Championship.[2] She defended the title against Vice and Aurora in the following weeks. Vice, however, defeated Matthews for the title on April 21, 2007.[2] During this time, Matthews also formed a partnership with Sid Sylum, wrestling with him in mixed tag team matches and acting as his valet, occasionally. Matthews continued to feud with Vice for the remainder of the year. In March 2008, Matthews regained the SuperGirls Championship in a match against Penni Lane.[2] She, however, lost the title to Veronika Vice on February 7, 2009.[2]
Matthews sent a demo tape to Shimmer Women Athletes in December 2006, but was not signed to the promotion.[1] In October 2007, however, Matthews was called to join the company when Portia Perez needed a tag team partner.[1][3] Matthews teamed with Perez in Shimmer Volumes 15 and 16.[1] After three singles matches with Shimmer, Matthews once again began teaming with Perez as the Canadian Ninjas.[1] On October 19, 2008 on Volume 22, the Ninjas challenged Ashley Lane and Nevaeh for the Shimmer Tag Team Championship, but they failed to win the title. On Volume 23, taped on May 2, 2009, she fought Daizee Haze to a 20 minute time limit draw, before losing to her in a rematch on Volume 24. On May 3, 2009, at the tapings of Volume 26, Matthews and Perez defeated Ashley Lane and Nevaeh to win the Shimmer Tag Team Championship.[1]. On November 8, 2009 Matthews came back as a singles competitor by losing to Cheerleader Melissa as part of Volume 27, but winning against Allison Danger as part of Volume 28.
Matthews played volleyball and swam in high school.[1] She attends Simon Fraser University, where she is studying kinesiology.[1] She also teaches swimming and works as a lifeguard.[1] She is also a former member of The Smart Marks Forums- one of the most well known wrestling-oriented message forums on the internet.
