Added DiffLines:

* ActingInTheDark: For the Diva contest in 2008, she and the others had no idea if the votes were scripted or genuine. She was astonished that she made it to second place.
* ActorInspiredElement: When Jim Johnston was creating her theme music, he called her up to ask her about certain attributes - like her eye colour - that could be incorporated into the song.


Added DiffLines:

* IronyAsSheIsCast: Cherry was portrayed as the timid non-action valet for Deuce & Domino, and later still a very inexperienced wrestler who could only get fluke wins. Kara Drew had actually been wrestling on the indies for six years prior to getting signed to WWE. Her intent was to not betray the character when wrestling on Smackdown, hoping to have Cherry go through CharacterDevelopment to become more dynamic.
* NoExportForYou:
** Her theme song "Cherry Baby" was never officially released.
** She had a 'Summer Skin' photoshoot that was never released, because she was let go before it came out. The pictures somehow came out [[BadExportForYou as part of a sunglasses advertisement]].


Added DiffLines:

* ThrowItIn: Deuce & Domino had a very upbeat [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lKxttgPG7ro entrance song]] in OVW, and didn't know it had been changed to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hy9KDdmkGC0 something slower]] on Smackdown. Thus they had to improvise their entrance to fit the new theme.
* {{Tuckerization}}: The 'Cherry' ring name came from ''Literature/TheOutsiders''.


Added DiffLines:

** Before she was named Cherry, they were considering 'Sandy', after the character from ''{{Film/Grease}}''. Cherry was deemed to be more of a wrestler name.


Added DiffLines:

** Her hammerlock DDT finisher was to be called the 'Cherry Pop' (her preferred name), but was changed to 'Doo-Wop Drop' by the commentators.

to:

* CreatorBacklash: Admits that "it broke our hearts" when she was split from Deuce and Domino via a video on WWE.com and their split happened in a dark match - feeling there was so much more they could do as a tag team. She did however enjoy being integrated into the women's division as a result.
* CreatorBreakdown: Towards the period leading up to her release, her confidence took a hit and she lost faith in herself - as well as feeling pressure to keep her weight down (at one point a script had a line calling her "the rotund Diva").
* DoingItForTheArt: She describes giving up a job that was "a 401k with insurance" to train in OVW, also working a serving job to supplement the training.
* {{Jossed}}: She denied Dave Meltzer's claims that she was released for her weight and lack of in-ring ability. The actual reason was budget cuts due to the 2008 recession.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen:
** The Deuce, Domino & Cherry gimmick was originally called up to the main roster literally a week after it had been tested out in front of WWE creative. They showed up to Raw, and were dropped from the show, not getting called up for another year. They called this a blessing in disguise, as it allowed them to develop chemistry.
** It's been speculated that the storyline between Michelle [=McCool=] and Maria with the former turning heel on the latter was originally meant for Cherry; she and Michelle had been paired together and presented as best friends in storyline, with Michelle playing a mentor figure. By contrast, Maria and Michelle had barely any history. It's unknown if Cherry would have actually feuded over the Divas' Championship with Michelle, given she was more credible in the ring than Maria.
** She had been in talks to join TNA, having a few meetings with Terry Taylor, but she doesn't know if there were any definite plans for her; she didn't push the issue, not sure if she wanted to return to wrestling on TV.
