===Ohio Valley Wrestling (2003–2007, 2013)=== Following her stint in Windy City Pro Wrestling, Kaiser moved to Louisville, Kentucky, before the end of 2003 and joined Ohio Valley Wrestling. She debuted for the promotion under the name ring name Sosay, where she became a member of Kenny Bolin's stable Bolin Services and became the "personal secretary" and later the storyline girlfriend of Ken Doane.<ref name=OWOW/><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.cagematch.de/?id=29&nr=29|title=Bolin Services' Cagematch profile}}</ref> Soon after debuting, Sosay began feuding with Maria,<ref name=Maria>{{cite web|url=http://pwtorch.com/artman2/publish/TV_Reports_9/article_15175.shtml|title=10/15 OVW review: Doane & Visk vs. Lashley & Albright, OVW Title match preview, Punk, Gibson}}</ref><ref name=Maria2>{{cite web|url=http://pwtorch.com/artman2/publish/TV_Reports_9/article_15223.shtml|title=10/22 OVW TV review: Lashley-Visk and preview of Jeter-Cappotelli}}</ref> which culminated in a match on October 29 that ended in a no contest.<ref name=Inringdebut>{{cite web|url=http://pwtorch.com/artman2/publish/TV_Reports_9/article_15266.shtml|title=10/29 OVW TV review: Jeter-Cappotelli for the OVW Title, Albright-Punk, Maria in a catfight}}</ref> Following this, Sosay would later have brief feuds with Trinity and Shelly Martinez.<ref name=Bio/>
When Doane debuted on World Wrestling Entertainment's main roster, Sosay soon became the "publicist" for Jack Bull, who began using a stuntman gimmick. The two later engaged in a feud with Joey Mercury, which saw Bull losing to Mercury on November 5. Bull then challenged Mercury to a drinking contest, which Bull won. On November 29, Bull attempted an escape stunt involving chains, but was soon struck with a chair by Mercury before he performed a double underhook DDT on Sosay, injuring her in storyline.<ref name=OWOW/><ref name=Bio/> On December 20, Bull, without Sosay, defeated Mercury in a grudge match.
