She became a regular in the UK indie scene over the years with <strong>Southside Wrestling Entertainment (SWE), Kamikaze Pro, International Pro Wrestling (IPW), Pro Wrestling Ulster (PWU)<\/strong>, and others, including winning EVE&#8217;s 2013 Queen of the Ring, as well as the SWE Queen of Southside in 2018, and the Kamikaze Pro Fighting Females Champion this spring.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Shanna vs Laura Di Matteo - Queen of Southside Championship (Courage Wrestling)\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/B1OoNIy0Xfg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>She also competes across Europe, where she&#8217;s competed with the <strong>German Wrestling Federation (GWF)<\/strong>, Germany&#8217;s <strong>Westside Xtreme Wrestling (wXw)<\/strong>, and France&#8217;s <strong>Association Biterroise de Catch (ABC)<\/strong>, where she&#8217;s the reigning 2x ABC Women&#8217;s Champion.
