Amber O'Neal

Kimberly Dawn Davis (born June 22, 1974) is an American professional wrestler, better known by her ring name Amber O’Neal.

She formerly wrestled in Ring of Honor (ROH) in their "Women of Honor" division as well as various promotions on the U.S. independent circuit.

She has also appeared in New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) as a valet for the villainous Bullet Club stable, where she was billed as Amber Gallows.

She was also NWA World Women's Champion, during her stint as a Bullet Club associate.

Davis got into wrestling after watching it with a friend who was a fan of Stone Cold Steve Austin.

Davis initially became a fan of Sable.

After researching how to get involved with the sport, Davis trained under Strawberry Fields, Leilani Kai, and Gary Royal at the Mid-Atlantic Wrestling Academy in Charlotte, North Carolina.

After training for six months, she debuted in July 1999 in the Professional Girl Wrestling Association (PGWA) as Amber Holly, wrestling Leilani Kai in Maggie Valley, North Carolina.

She also worked with Desiree Paterson and Riptide.

In 2002, Holly began wrestling for the Carolina Wrestling Federation (CWF), where she furthered her training under Gemini Kid and Mikael Yamaha at the CWF Dojo Camp.

While a part of the company, she defeated Kai for the CWF Women's Championship.

In May 2003, Holly suffered a knee injury during a match with Brandi Alexander, to whom she later lost the CWF title.

She tore her anterior cruciate ligament and patella tendon, as well as suffering cartilage damage.

She was obliged to undergo reconstructive surgery and was inactive for approximately a year.

Holly returned to the ring on May 16, 2004, adopting the ring name Amber O'Neal and the gimmick of a motocross racer.

She changed her name because of her respect for Nora Greenwald, who used the ring name Molly Holly.

Greenwald helped O'Neal in her tryout matches with World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE).

In late 2004, O'Neal formed a tag team with Krissy Vaine known as Team Blondage.

The team wrestled primarily on the North Carolina independent circuit, appearing with promotions such as Shimmer and Women's Extreme Wrestling.

Team Blondage defeated Clehopatra and Navaho to win the vacant WEW Tag Team Championship on May 8, 2005 at the WEW pay-per-view "No Ho's Barred".

In the course of their reign, Vaine signed a contract with WWE.

Vaine was subsequently replaced within Team Blondage by Total Nonstop Action Wrestling alumna Lollipop.

On the April 6, 2006 WEW pay-per-view, O'Neal and Lollipop lost the WEW Women's Tag Team Championship to T and A (Talia and April Hunter).

After a long term hiatus prior leaving WWE and the wrestling business for over a year, it was announced that Krissy Vaine decided to return to the wrestling industry and reunite with her Team Blondage partner, Amber O'Neal.

They have now announced themselves as Team Blondage 2.0, and in their debut match they defeated against the established Scream Queens (Daffney and MsChif).

On March 7, they defeated Persephone and Kristin Flake in CWF.

O'Neal was part of the first Shimmer show where she teamed with Krissy Vaine to defeat the team of Nikki Roxx and Cindy Rogers.

Later in the night she lost a singles match to Christie Ricci.

After Vaine signed a WWE contract, O'Neal moved into singles competition and lost to both Cindy Rogers in a triple threat elimination match also including Tiana Ringer, and Nikki Roxx.

She got her first singles victory against the debuting Serena Deeb on Volume 5 but later in the night she lost to Serena in a rematch.

On October 22, 2006, as part of Volume 7, she was defeated by Allison Danger.

Later in the night however she got a victory by pinfall over Josie after hitting with her STO Finishing Manoeuvre.

At the Volume 9 and 10 taping, she lost to both Daizee Haze and MsChif via pinfall.

She did not compete in the Shimmer Championship tournament, and lost to Portuguese Princess Ariel on Volume 14.

She then lost to "The Jezebel" Eden Black and Lorelei Lee on Volume 15 and 16 but she was able to score a third pinfall victory over Lorelei Lee as part of Volume 17.

Later in the night however she lost to Shark Girl.

She missed Volume 19 and 20, and returned to Shimmer for Volumes 21 and 22, where she lost to Wesna Busic and Mercedes Martinez.

In April and May 2006, O'Neal wrestled at several TNA house shows produced in conjunction with the United Wrestling Federation.

O'Neal also made a televised appearance in 2006 against Gail Kim.

On May 2, 2009, at the tapings of Volume 23, she defeated the debuting Tenille with a backslide, but went on to lose to Jennifer Blake as part of Volume 24, and LuFisto.
