Harrison won the women's lightweight final in the headliner of the 2021 PFL Championship after submitting Taylor Guardado in the second round. Since then, she has been a free agent and has hinted at possible moves to the UFC and Bellator MMA.

Various reports had suggested that she would re-sign with the PFL. However, Harrison's future remains uncertain due to an apparent breakdown in negotiations with the promotion.

"I had thought that I was going to re-sign with the PFL, I was pretty certain that I was going to re-sign for one more year... Other things have happened and there’s some last-minute things happening behind closed doors that mean I’m not entirely sure now what’s going to happen, again."
