Dahlia Black is a New Zealand female professional wrestler. Dahlia is currently employed at PROGRESS Wrestling, though she does occasionally show up at other wrestling promotions. In PROGRESS, she serves as the valet and tag team partner of TK Cooper, who is also her out of kayfabe boyfriend. She also does singles matches. though; competing against the likes of Toni Storm and Pollyanna. She had a PROGRESS Women's Championship match against Toni Storm on 8/10/2017, which she lost, and was struck by a chair from Jinny shortly after. This was the first title match she had for the Championship she helped create. Dahlia Black has also had a tryout for the WWE in 2016, alongside TK Cooper and other names such as Viper, Dakota Kai, and many others. As she is a New Zealand native, she has to apply for visas every few years. This happened to her previously while still employed by PROGRESS; during one of her greatest stretches in the company. A documentary about said time period can be found She is dating a fellow professional wrestler TK Cooper (contrary to popular belief that they are married, which is debunked on her Twitter page numerous times), who she met in her home country of New Zealand while training to become a professional wrestler (which isn't very common in NZ). She is also close friends, and occasional teammates, with Dakota Kai, otherwise known in the independent scene as Evie, who is also from New Zealand.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
