Professional wrestling career
Morgan began her career at the age of ten, under the name Daisy Mae, as the valet for her father Les Morgan.{{cite web|url= http://slam.ca/SlamWrestlingFeatures/morgans.html|title=It's a family affair for the Morgans|author=Rick Bauer|publisher=SLAM! Wrestling|accessdate=2008-01-16|date=January 25, 2000}} Several years later, Morgan pursued a career as a bodybuilder and was approached at an exhibition by Vince McMahon about a wrestling career. After deciding to join the family business, she was trained by The Fabulous Moolah, Johnny Rodz and Wolfgang Von Heller. After working on the independent circuit in North and South Carolina, she joined the National Wrestling Federation. As part of the Federation, Morgan feuded with Wendi Richter. She battled Richter, the NWF Women's Champion, in a first ever women's steel cage match in May 1987.
Morgan later held the LPWA Tag Team Championship with Misty Blue Simmes and the WWWA Ladies Championship during her career.
On December 13, 1993, at WWF All American Wrestling, Morgan challenged Alundra Blayze in the tournament finals for the vacant WWF Women's Championship, however, was unsuccessful.{{cite web|last=Cawthon |first=Graham |url=http://www.angelfire.com/wrestling/cawthon777/93.htm |title=1993 WWF event results |access-date=2007-08-31 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070616022724/http://www.angelfire.com/wrestling/cawthon777/93.htm |archive-date=2007-06-16 |url-status=dead }}{{cite web|url=http://www.wwe.com/inside/titlehistory/women/30445413212111214|title=Alundra Blayze's first reign|access-date=2007-04-24|publisher=WWE|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090319045122/http://www.wwe.com/inside/titlehistory/women/30445413212111214|archive-date=2009-03-19}}
After giving birth to her daughter, Morgan wanted to revive her wrestling career in 1997, but she broke her back in her first match back in the ring. She attempted an aerial maneuver, but she and her opponent lost their balance, which resulted in the break.
