Career

In 1985, Brown began her training to become a professional wrestler at The Fabulous Moolah's Girl Pro Wrestling School in Columbia, South Carolina under the direct training of not only the WWWF Ladies Champion The Fabulous Moolah herself, but also former Womans Champion Donna Christanello. She then trained under Killer Kowalski and was the Ladies Champion for his International Wrestling Federation promotion for over a decade plus. Brown eventually became one of Kowalski's trainers to both male and female students at his school outside of Boston, Massachusetts. At the same time as being the IWF Ladies Champion, she was also the Ladies Champion of the National Wrestling Alliance and a number of independent promotions including Empire Pro Wrestling and the New England Wrestling Federation. She was known as "The Boston Bad Girl" in many circles, due to her 'in ring' "heel" tactics.

In 1994, Brown was honored by the prestigious Cauliflower Alley Club along with other female inductees Candi Devine, Sherri Martel, Kitty Adams, and Susan Green. She and the other Ladies received their award on the same stage with such male legends as Pedro Morales and Gorilla Monsoon. She won Vermont Wrestler of the Year on at least two occasions and was listed in the Top Ten Best Best Pro Ladies Worldwide in one of the highly respected Japenese publications "Nippon Sports Mook" in 1998.

She and a former partner began a New England-based independent wrestling promotion called the World Wrestling Alliance in 1999. Among its former alumni would include The Hardy Boyz, Kurt Angle, Edge, Steven Richards, A-Train and many more well known stars. Former WWF veteran Danny Davis as well as "WWE Tough Enough" finalists Danny ("Tough Enough 2") and Jonah ("Tough Enough 3") also made many appearances in the promotion.
