Kelly Klein is a professional wrestler competing as a villainess in Ring of Honor.
Kelly Klein made her ROH debut at Glory for Honor XIV on October 24, 2015, defeating Ray Lyn in singles action. Since then, Kelly racked up an unbeaten streak against women such as Mandy Leon, Scarlett Bordeaux, and fellow villainess Taeler Hendrix. All the while, Kelly established herself as an arrogant, vicious, and intimidating heel; referring to herself as "The Gatekeeper."
After 19 months, Kelly's unbeaten streak came to an end when she was defeated by Karen Q via countout in May of 2017, due to a distraction by Deonna Purrazzo. Following her first defeat, however, the evil Kelly continued to call herself undefeated, refusing to recognize her countout loss. Kelly ended up competing against both Karen and Deonna in a three-way match on June 24, which she lost when Karen pinned Deonna. On September 6, Kelly defeated Deonna in singles action, with the victory coming after Karen turned heel and attacked Deonna during the match. On the following week's Women of Honor match, Kelly defeated Brandi Rhodes and gave a mocking celebration in front of Brandi's friends in attendance.
Kelly later entered the highly anticipated Women of Honor Championship Tournament, making it all the way to the finals, where she suffered her first pinfall defeat at the hands of Sumie Sakai. At Final Battle in December 2018, Kelly defeated Sakai, Karen Q, and Madison Rayne to become the second-ever Women of Honor Champion.
