8Along with her four reigns as TNA Knockouts Champion, she is a former (and the first-ever) [[http://www.wrestling-titles.com/us/mn/sdw/sdw-wm.html SDW (Steel Domain Wrestling in Minnesota) Women's Champion]], a former [[https://www.cagematch.net//?id=5&nr=2787 MPW Cruiserweight Champion]], a former [[https://www.cagematch.net//?id=5&nr=683 USWO (Nashville) Television Champion]], a 2x, and the inaugural [[http://www.wrestling-titles.com/us/ky/ovw/ovw-wm.html OVW Women's Champion]] and a former [[http://www.wrestling-titles.com/us/tna/tna-wt.html TNA Knockouts Tag Team Champion]] with Wrestling/EricYoung. (Yes.)
9----
10!! "ONE DIRTY TROPE LIST":
11* ActionGirl: Obviously. She has an UsefulNotes/IceHockey background.
12* ArchEnemy: Back in GLORY it was "My Next Opponent"
13* AscendedExtra: Before "The Knockouts Division" was a thing, she would wrestle in Dark Matches, sometimes using her Poison gimmick along side Wrestling/ChrisHero.
14* BadassesWearBandanas: She's been wearing bandanas since at least her Ohio Valley days, and also using them to hide flasks. She has several pictures on her [[https://www.instagram.com/theodbbam/ Instagram]].
15* BecauseISaidSo: She's the first-ever OVW Women's Champion because she named herself that.
16* CatchPhrase: "BAM!"
17* ComedicSpanking: Gave one to Wrestling/{{Jacqueline}} after pouring...[[NoodleImplements what was presumably some kind of irritant]] down her pants at ''One Night Only''.
18* DistaffCounterpart: While Wrestling/JamesStorm was more so a spear counterpart to Jacqueline, Jacqueline and ODB were in function distaff counterparts to James Storm's tag team with Chris Harris, America's Most Wanted.
19* DivergentCharacterEvolution: When she and Angel Williams first met in IWA Mid-South, it was almost a mirror match. ODB was almost a somewhat larger Williams with straighter hair, both favoring the same moves and similar taunts. Afterwards they both got boob jobs in a farm league, but Williams slimmed down, took part in photo shoots, eventually became a [[WrestlingDoesntPay porn star]] sorority sister, lead a GirlPosse and began favoring a bicycle kick as Wrestling/AngelinaLove. ODB became more of a high flying, hard liquor loving trailer park hooligan who occasionally acted as a personal trainer and got involved in [[GarbageWrestler street fights]].
20* {{Eagleland}}: In WWC, "La Guapa Americana" was Wrestling/MickieJames. She was used as a stand in for most good things about the fifty states. If it was the women's division, the bad things were usually found in ODB.
21* {{Face}}: While ODB has been been pushed as heel, it has never worked in TNA. She can still do one off appearances for other promotions and come in with all her heel heat intact but will get received warmly as soon as she's back in the Impact Zone.
22* FinishingMove: Bam (Wrestling/MarcMero's TKO), Thesz Press after The Dirty Dozen
23* FunWithAcronyms: ODB stands for One Dirty Bitch or One Dirty Broad. Nothing to do with [[Music/{{WuTangClan}} Ol' Dirty Bastard]].
24* GirlinessUpgrade: Between her wedding with Eric Young and the increased number of photoshoots she's been doing…
25* GreenEyedMonster: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. ODB wasn't "sure" if she liked seeing Wrestling/TaylorWilde score an upset victory against Wrestling/AmazingKong, become Knockouts Champion and win $25,000 from [[Wrestling/CheerleaderMelissa RaishaSaeed]] in the process.
26* HappilyMarried: Kayfabe, with Eric Young.
27* HaveIMentionedIAmHeterosexualToday: ODB likes men, and will remind you often just through her body language. ODB once called a referee checking Wrestling/ChristinaVonEerie for weapons in RONIN away, demanding he inspect ODB's [[BigBreastPride superior chest]] instead. During their match Von Eerie compressed ODB's throat with her pelvic bone while the back of her neck was against the ropes. ODB's first action, after coughing for air, was to spit in disgust.
28* IHaveManyNames: Poison, Jessica James, Jessica Dalton, ODB
29* InnocentFanserviceGirl[=/=]ShamelessFanserviceGirl: It would be a stretch to call this dirty broad "innocent" but she really doesn't seem to be doing what she does to turn on the fans so much as squeezing her chest, spanking people and bronco busters just being what she does.
30* TheLadette[=/=]OneOfTheBoys: She's the archetypical drink, fight, drink, party while drinking drunken bar brawler. She's not above a smoke or a casual fling either.
31* LadyLooksLikeADude: During her match with Mickie Knuckles at ''IWA Mid-South Revenge Served Cold '05'', some of the fans were accusing her of being a man[[note]]She had been flat/ripped during her bodybuilding days.[[/note]], and she let the ref look in her trunks.
32* MarshmallowHell: She faced Wrestling/TaelerHendrix in a dark (non-televised) [[Wrestling/RingOfHonor Women of Honor]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOYt0d62d7A match]] before the taping for the December 19, 2015 (taped November 20th) episode of ''Ring of Honor''. At one point, ODB attempted to counter Taeler's manager Wrestling/TruthMartini's attempt at interfering by giving him this. He came up [[AllMenArePerverts smiling]], which ODB found creepy.[[note]]For the record, ODB won.[[/note]]
33* MinnesotaNice: Subverted. She was born in Nashville, UsefulNotes/{{Tennessee}} but was trained and lives in Minneapolis. While she is usually a Face, as a NoIndoorVoice HotBlooded HardDrinkingPartyGirl she's hardly the soft-spoken polite type usually associated with this trope.
34* PowerStable: She was a member of The TNA Front Line, which was the bulk of the roster opposing The Main Event Mafia.[[note]]This was a recycling of the Millionaires Club vs. The New Blood feud from Wrestling/{{WCW}} in 2000.[[/note]]
35* PutOnABus: Her TNA contract expired.
36* QuickNip[=/=]{{Drunken M|aster}}istress: Always brings her flask with her.
37* RealWomenDontWearDresses: Her and Jacqueline's campaign against the knockout division for its athletes going soft and doing photo shoots. And by "knockout division" they meant Wrestling/MadisonRayne and Wrestling/VelvetSky.
38* TheSixthRanger: To the Briscoes, debuting to run the Kingdom off of them.
39* StartMyOwn: "ODB's [[PunnyName Meat 'N' Greet]] Food Truck Co."
40* TalkShowWithFists: "Talking Trash with ODB". One edition saw her get into a {{Catfight}} with [[Wrestling/LisaMarieVaron Tara]].
41* TomboyWithAGirlyStreak
42** In GLORY they claimed ODB ''could'' be as chic and feminine as any woman on the planet...outside of the ring. They posted a picture of her in a LittleBlackDress to prove it.
43** [[https://www.instagram.com/p/BfI0rIZF8NP/ This picture]] is of her dressed in {{Pink|MeansFeminine}} and cuddling a Toys/TeddyBear and looking forward to Valentine's Day. It's quite a different look for her, and [[SheCleansUpNicely it works]].
44* VaporWear: Once in WEW, she got the back of her trunks pulled down and she wasn't wearing any panties.
45* WaxOnWaxOff
46** Her training of Cody Deaner involved such practices as chasing ducks.
47** All of her training with the Briscoes was of this manner, and she took to everything without question, with the exception of fixing a tractor. Dem boys had to admit that one had nothing to do with getting her ready for The Kingdom.
48* TheWorfEffect: Had the misfortune of being matched up with Nanae Takahashi during the 2015 ''Aftershock'' tour.
