Former mixed martial artist Jessamyn Duke signed with WWE in May 2018. Over the next few years, she competed on NXT and RAW Underground. Duke also worked as a full-time digital content creator for UpUpDownDown.
Nonetheless, WWE released Duke from her contract in May 2021 due to the pandemic-related budget cuts. Her final match came in August 2020, when she defeated Avery Taylor on RAW Underground.
Following her release, Duke disclosed that she would continue to appear on Xavier Wood's gaming channel UpUpDownDown.

"I want all of you to know; UpUpDownDown is still my home. BRE Start is not going anywhere. Everyone can relax, sit back, and enjoy knowing that tomorrow [Friday] a brand new episode of BRE Start will be premiering. We still have BRE Fridays and have BRE content coming out of our ears. That's not going anywhere," she said in one of her streams.
