Hayward was born on 28th July 1986 in San Diego California. From a very young age she knew she was different. At the age of 15 she decided she wanted to be an actress and had a small part in a soap opera. After not being able to find acting work she came across a friend in 2010 who recommended her to go into wrestling as a stepping stone. Throughout 2010 she tried her best to get into wrestling schools but no one would take her because of her size and were scared she would seriously hurt other female talent. In December 2010 she enrolled in LA School For Wrestling Stars.
