We discuss Kasey's recent Grudge match against Emersyn Jayne at Pro Wrestling EVE's 'God Save The Wrestle-Queen' show from the Electric Ballroom and the violence that ensued between these two long-term rivals.

Kasey tells us about her journey in this year's Pro Wrestling EVE 'She-1 2022' tournament, and exclusively reveals why she was unable to compete in the final match-up of this year's tournament.

Kasey also tells us about her very memorable match against Jetta in the 'She-1' and her emotional tribute to Adrian 'Lionheart' during that match.

We talk about her TNA Boot Camp experience in 2014, before discussing her incredible journey with Insane Championship Wrestling. Including the long journey to winning her first of 3 ICW Women's World championship, her rivalries with Kay Lee Ray and Viper, and headlining the Hydro in front of 4,000+ fans in a classic Steel Cage match for the ICW Women's World Title.

Kasey tells us about her history with TNT Extreme in Liverpool, becoming the TNT Women's champion and not forgetting the Total Carnage Death Match tournament and how a thumb tack pin was found in her knee several weeks after the show.

We also discuss Kasey's WWE try-out and three matches on NXTUK, including a match with great friend and bitter rival Kay Lee Ray at the Glasgow tapings in 2019.
