Thea Hail, an American professional wrestler and gymnast, has been in a relationship with Benjamin Timms, aka Nathan Frazer, a British professional wrestler.
Their relationship became public when Nathan shared their photo on social media, sparking dating rumors. They have been signed to WWE and perform on the NXT brand.
Under the ring name Nikita Knight, Madison Knisley made her All Elite Wrestling debut as an enhancement talent on Dark on September 28, 2021.
WWE signed her in March 2022, and she debuted on NXT Level Up as Thea Hail, losing to Ivy Nile. She aligned with Chase University in May, scoring her first win on Level Up over Arianna Grace.
Her NXT feuds included confrontations with Tiffany Stratton, Ava, and Schism, leading to a Stand & Deliver pre-show victory in an eight-person tag. Moreover, she twice challenged Tiffany for the NXT Women’s Championship but lost both times.
After a face turn, she teamed with Jacy Jayne, but tensions arose when Jacy mocked her in March 2024, leading to a betrayal. At Stand & Deliver, Thea, Fallon Henley, and Kelani Jordan defeated Jacy’s team.
Later, Jacy exposed Chase U’s gambling debt stemming from Thea’s title match.
Thea defeated Jacy at Spring Breakin’ but was attacked by Fallon Henley, who later beat her in a North American Title qualifier. Moreover, Chase U disbanded after Joe Holland defeated Andre Chase.
