5 | !!"Cherry Pop Tropes": |
6 | * TheFifties: The basis of her gimmick. |
7 | * AlwaysSomeoneBetter: She was the first woman trained by Damian Adams, who also trained Deonna Purrazzo and Karen Q, both of whom surpassed her in career achievements. |
8 | * ArchEnemy: [[Wrestling/KatarinaWaters Katie Lea]] in OVW, Wrestling/{{Maryse}}, who became the new valet of Deuce 'n Domino for a bit. She had feuds with Wrestling/{{Natalya|Neidhart}} and Vickie Guerrero as well. |
9 | * CurbStompBattle: On the receiving end of one from Natalya, tapping to the Sharpshooter in a few seconds. |
10 | * DiscoDan: She was the valet of Deuce 'n Domino, two Greaser-like characters who looked like they were from the 1950s. Her attire consisted of poodle skirts and rollerskates. |
11 | * EdibleThemeNaming: Her ring name along with her finisher, a Hammerlock DDT called the Cherry Pop Drop. |
12 | * {{Expy}}[=/=]LegacyCharacter: [[Wrestling/SkylarMarie Blanche Babish]] in Wrestling/{{CHIKARA}}. She is billed from "The WrongSideOfTheTracks," and, during her match with El Hijo del Ice Cream at ''Hour of Power 14'', commentators Bryce Remsburg and Wrestling/SidneyBakabella made jokes about playing a game of "Deuces and Dominoes" and about the cherry on top of Hijo's mask. |
13 | * GoodBadGirl: Implied. Deuce 'n' Domino saw her emerge from a closet in the hallway... and then, seconds later, Wrestling/RicFlair emerged from the closet as well! |
14 | * HeelFaceTurn: Deuce 'n Domino replaced her with Maryse, forcing her to go out on her own. |
15 | * IHaveManyNames: Also used Kara Slice and Cherry Pie. |
16 | * MsFanservice: Participated in a swimsuit contest in 2008 (albeit [[ReluctantFanserviceGirl somewhat reluctantly]]) as well as a "wet 'n' wild" match on [=SmackDown=] with Michelle [=McCool=], Maryse and [[Wrestling/LisaMarieVaron Victoria]]. |
17 | * OddFriendship: With Michelle [=McCool=], her frequent manager and tag partner. |
18 | * PartsUnknown: From "the other side of the tracks". |
19 | * PinkMeansFeminine: The outfit pictured was typical of what she wore as Cherry. |
20 | * PutOnABus: She was released in August of 2008 due to "budget cuts". There was a long-standing rumor that WWE fired her for gaining a little weight, but she eventually denied those claims in a shoot interview. |
21 | * RealWomenHaveCurves: Just look at her. She had a body that fit the 1950s gimmick. |
22 | * ShrinkingViolet: Her shtick since splitting from Deuce 'N' Domino was being a scared, timid punching bag for the heel Divas on [=SmackDown=]. She eventually built her confidence up and even got a few wins against the likes of Victoria. |
23 | * TheRival: [[Wrestling/MickieJames Alexis Laree]] and Slice were bitter enemies for a while, but found common ground after they both managed Julio Dinero. They still beat each other up, but it was no longer personal. |
24 | * TournamentArc: As Kara Slice, she and Julio Dinero won the ''Wrestling/{{WSU}}[=/=]NWS Queen and King of the Ring Tournament'' in 2006. (WWE ripped off this idea for the Wrestling/WWEMixedMatchChallenge.) |
25 | * TrueCompanions: With Natalya Neidhart, going by her [[http://twitter.com/fmrdivacherry Twitter]]. |
