Dahlia was employed at PROGRESS Wrestling, though she dos occasionally show up at other wrestling promotions. In PROGRESS, she served as the valet and tag team partner of TK Cooper, who is also her out of kayfabe boyfriend. She also does singles matches. though; competing against the likes of Toni Storm and Pollyanna.
She had a PROGRESS Women's Championship match against Toni Storm on 8/10/2017, which she lost, and was struck by a chair from Jinny shortly after. This was the first title match she had for the Championship she helped create.

As she is a New Zealand native, she has to apply for visas every few years. This happened to her previously while still employed by PROGRESS; during one of her greatest stretches in the company. A documentary about said time period can be found here.
