Blue has also appeared on National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) [3] as well as various independent shows such as AAW: Professional Wrestling Redefined, where she once held the AAW Women's Championship, [4] and she is the current Warrior Wrestling Women's Champion. [5]
Blue debuted in 2017, wrestling on the independent circuit in Illinois, having her first match in Premier Pro Wrestling (PPW) against Sierra. [6]

On January 6, 2023, at Battle of the Belts V , Blue challenged Jade Cargill for the AEW TBS Championship, but was unsuccessful. [14] On April 7, it was announced that Blue has signed full time with AEW. [15] On the June 9 episode of Rampage, Blue defeated Dr. Britt Baker, D.M.D., Mercedes Martinez and Nyla Rose in a four-way match to become the number one contender for the AEW Women's World Championship. [16] On the June 14 episode of Dynamite Blue challenged the Women's World Champion Toni Storm for the title. [17] During the match, which saw Storm spraying Blue's mom in the face with a green spray, Blue had Storm pinned, but the referee was distracted by Storm's ally Ruby Soho. [17] Storm would later submit Blue to retain the title. [17] On June 17, at the premiere episode of Collision , Blue teamed up with the NJPW Strong Women's Champion Willow Nightingale to defeat Soho and Storm. [18] On the June 23 episode of Rampage, Blue competed in the Owen Hart Foundation Women's Tournament, defeating Anna Jay A.S. in the quarterfinals of the tournament. [19]
On the September 23, 2023, edition of AEW Collison, Julia Hart of the House of Black would spray a black mist from her mouth into Skye Blue's eyes. [20] Over the course of the following weeks, Skye Blue's appearance and demeanour would begin to gradually change; she began wrestling a much more aggressive style in the ring while donning heavy black makeup around her eyes. [21] The storyline would esculate on the November 1 edition of Dynamite with Julia Hart seeming willing to align with Skye Blue, but Skye answered by spraying blue mist into the eyes of Hart. [22] Nonetheless, Skye Blue's demeanour remained altered. On the December 16, 2023, edition of Collision, Skye Blue turned heel for the first time in her career and aligned with Hart by joining her in attacking Abadon until a returning Thunder Rosa made the save. [23]
On the May 29, 2024, episode of Dynamite, Skye Blue unsuccessfully challenged Mercedes Moné for the AEW TBS Championship. [24]
Blue made her Ring of Honor (ROH) debut on the March 2, 2023, episode of ROH on Honor Club , where she alongside Madison Rayne defeated The Renegades (Charlette Renegade and Robyn Renegade). [25] On the May 11 episode of the televised ROH episode, during the main event, Blue challenged Athena for the ROH Women's World Championship, but was unsuccessful. [26]
During her time on the Independent circuit and initially in All Elite Wrestling, the character of Skye Blue was that of a bubbly, energetic, good-natured girl-next-door. [27] [28] This led to comparisons to Roxanne Perez and to Bayley during their time in NXT. [27] However, following a storyline involving Julia Hart that began in September 2023, Skye Blue became a darker, brooding, more aggressive character.
Dolecki previously dated fellow AEW wrestler Dante Martin. [29] She is currently in a relationship with fellow AEW and ROH wrestler Kyle Fletcher. [30]
