Early career (1988–1993) Poch debuted in 1988 as Taylor Made, a valet for
Scotty the Body in Portland's
Pacific Northwest Wrestling. She joined the
Ladies Professional Wrestling Association (LPWA) in 1990 as Terri Power, defeating both
Leilani Kai and
Judy Martin within her first year with the company. Following Wrestlemania Tori and Ivory went on to defeat Sable and Jacqueline with Tori pinning Jacqueline via a backslide, immediately after Tori challenged Sable but this was cut short by the Ministry of darkness who came to the ring to pursue Sable. Tori
feuded with
Jacqueline in April and May 1999 scoring several pinfalls over Jacqueline and then began pursuing
Ivory's Women's Championship in July. Tori scored a pinfall over Lexie Fyffe prior to her match against Ivory at
SummerSlam, Ivory would go on to retain her championship. Tori defeated Ivory the following night in an evening gown match and after this their feud became more and more heated, leading to the first-ever WWF women's
Hardcore match on the September 6, 1999 edition of
Raw. Ivory retained her title once more in a match which involved Tori having a mirror smashed over her head and being burnt with an iron. On September 26, Tori attempted to gain a measure of retribution by attacking Ivory during a match but instead was pushed into a
crate by Ivory. Tori was part of an 8-woman Survivors Series match in 1999 where her team would go on to be the victors. She wrestled Luna, Ivory and Jaqueline in a femme fatale four-way match at the UK pay per view Rebellion in 1999. Tori wrestled The Kat in a thong chocolate pudding match which resulted in a loss on the December 13 episode of Raw.
Kane's girlfriend and D-Generation X (1999–2000) Tori returned in November and soon became the on-screen girlfriend of
Kane. Although she stopped competing in regular matches, she was a special guest referee for the first women's battle royal which featured
Lita,
Ivory,
Jacqueline,
The Kat and
Terri Runnels. She helped Stephanie retain her title by attacking Lita and allowing Stephanie to enter the ring and claim victory. She continued to participate in high-profile storylines with the McMahon-Helmsley faction for the next few months. Along with X Pac and the Road Dogg she began feuding with the Dudley Boys, twice putting Bubba Ray Dudley through a table. At the
King of the Ring in June, Tori, X-Pac, and Road Dogg participated in a table and dumpster match against the
Dudley Boyz that ended with the Dudleyz
powerbombing her through a table. Poch was sidelined with a torn
labrum on June 24, which
Jim Ross described as an unfortunate set-back to her push. She underwent surgery with
Dr. James Andrews. On the October 30 edition of
Raw, Tori returned in a segment at
WWF New York, confronting and slapping X-Pac due to the events at King of the Ring.
The Black Ninja (2001) Poch returned in January 2001 as The Black Ninja, a
masked villainess in a black bodysuit who helped
Raven retain the
Hardcore Championship. Raven's Hardcore title feud with
Crash Holly, led to a feud between The Ninja and Crash's on-screen cousin
Molly Holly. Holly finally unmasked the ninja on the March 11, 2001 episode of
Sunday Night HEAT, revealing her to be Tori. Subsequently, Poch's character was removed from television. After working as a trainer on
WWF Tough Enough throughout the summer of 2001, Poch was released by the WWF in September 2001. At the time, she made accusations about Scott Levy (Raven), claiming he had verbally abused her. WWF road agent
Gerald Brisco and Executive Vice President of Talent Relations
Jim Ross claimed, however, that these allegations were not true. She subsequently retired from wrestling to concentrate on her career as a yogini. Two decades later DX was inducted into the
WWE Hall of Fame, however, Poch's name was not mentioned. == Outside of wrestling ==
