ACH was announced as part of the February class of recruits to the WWE Performance Center, but so far only Karen Q had begun work on the live circuit since the announcement. ACH’s last indie match was with All American Wrestling (AAW) on January 26, 2019, in a loss to AR Fox, after spending the previous year tearing it up with AAW, Pro Wrestling Guerrilla (PWG), NJPW and Major League Wrestling (MLW) to name a few.
