==Ring Of Honor (ROH)==
In December 2011 she made her debut in ROH at Final Battle as Mike Bennett's evil girlfriend, and was in his corner for his match that night. Since then she stayed alongside Bennett, being in his corner, and helping him to win by any means necessary. Whether that be by providing distractions on the outside or getting physically involved with the match herself.
She and Bennett also formed the villainous group The Kingdom, along with Matt Hardy, Matt Taven, and Adam Cole. As the wicked queen of The Kingdom, Maria helped guide the group to championship success.

==Total Nonstop Action (TNA)==
In January 2016 Maria made her debut in TNA Wrestling alongside her now husband, Mike Bennett. On the 19th April episode of Impact Wrestling she won a ladder match to become the new TNA Knockouts Division Commissioner. As the commissioner she went on to form an alliance with Sienna, who she used as a henchwoman. She also took on an apprentice called Allie. Maria enjoyed abusing her power as the Knockouts commissioner and made life hell for the good girls of TNA, her abuse of power eventually led to her winning the TNA Knockouts Championship, which she held for 2 months. She eventually left TNA in early 2017.

==World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE)==
Maria made her return to WWE at Money In The Bank 2017 as a much more wicked woman than the one that left in 2010. She returned alongside her husband Mike. After a couple of weeks the couple set their sights on Sami Zayn as a target to get started with and on the 11th July 2017 edition of Smackdown they attacked him backstage. Maria slapped Zayn in the face and Bennett smashed a vase over his head as Maria laughed with wicked enjoyment, before kneeling over the fallen Zayn to taunt him. Soon after her return, Maria became pregnant and disappeared from WWE to give birth to her child. She returned over one year later on the 10th October 2018 edition of 205 Live by distracting Lince Dorado, so her husband could sneak attack him. Maria took great pleasure in watching the beating, and then stood triumphantly over the fallen luchador with her husband Mike.
