Scott Fishman of The Miami Herald is featuring an interview with former WWE Diva Tiffany Terrell discussing how the current storyline on Smackdown between her real life husband Drew McIntyre and WWE Diva Kelly Kelly was originally planned for her.
“Drew had gone to the writers quite a few times to pitch that exact storyline with me. Then, since I got released, they decided to use Kelly. I’m not really sure if that was meant as a way of, `Yeah. You’re gone. Let us torture you a little bit’ or not. It is what it is. I will never know. It sucks because I know that was the role originally pitched for me and Drew, which would have been amazing because we are actually a couple. I think it’s a little bit ridiculous because everyone who watches WWE knows that we are married. So it’s a little strange. I personally don’t understand it, but at the same time I sort of get myself into a little bit of controversy talking about it.
I get all these tweets saying how I feel about it and about how it’s not acting. Wrestling is real. The actual wrestling is real. Everybody beats the crap out of each other. That’s all real. What goes on backstage and is written by the writers is all acting. It’s acting. So it doesn’t hurt my feelings. It’s awkward for them too. Kelly’s boyfriend has to sit there and watch it all too. It’s a little awkward for everybody, but at the same time, I had to do something similar with Ricky Ortiz when I was on ECW. Drew had to watch us touch lips.”
