Kimberly Dawn Hankinson (née Davis; born June 22, 1974) is an American professional wrestler, better known by her ring names Amber O'Neal, Amber Holly and currently Amber Gallows.
She formerly wrestles in Ring of Honor (ROH) in their "Women of Honor" division as well as various promotions on the U.S. independent circuit. Gallows is a former NWA World Women's Champion. She has also appeared in New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW) as a valet for the villainous Bullet Club stable.
Davis got into wrestling after watching it with a friend who was a fan of Stone Cold Steve Austin. Davis initially became a fan of Sable. After researching how to get involved with the sport, Davis trained under Strawberry Fields, Leilani Kai, and Gary Royal at the Mid-Atlantic Wrestling Academy in Charlotte, North Carolina. After training for six months, she debuted in July 1999 in the Professional Girl Wrestling Association (PGWA) as Amber Holly, wrestling Leilani Kai in Maggie Valley, North Carolina. She also worked with Desiree Paterson and Riptide. In 2002, Holly began wrestling for the Carolina Wrestling Federation (CWF), where she furthered her training under Gemini Kid and Mikael Yamaha at the CWF Dojo Camp. While a part of the company, she defeated Kai for the CWF Women's Championship. In May 2003, Holly suffered a knee injury during a match with Brandi Alexander, to whom she later lost the CWF title. She tore her anterior cruciate ligament and patella tendon, as well as suffering cartilage damage. She was obliged to undergo reconstructive surgery and was inactive for approximately a year.
