Former WWE Diva, Tiffany (Taryn Terrell) has gone on record for the first time over the current storyline between husband Drew McIntyre and her former Blondetourage cohort, Kelly Kelly.
The duo have been getting close on Friday nights in a storyline which Taryn reveals was originally pitched with her in mind.
Speaking to the Miami Herald, she says:
“Drew had gone to the writers quite a few times to pitch that exact storyline with me,” said Terrell.
“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.”

Thoughts: It’s definitely questionable that WWE paired up Drew and Kelly and yes, my mind did wonder — like Taryn’s — whether it was to ‘stick the knife in’. However, having seen their segments together which are like watching paint dry, it’s safe to say that Taryn has nothing to worry about. If WWE has any sense, they’ll drop this little storyline soon because the acting is just cringeworthy and the chemistry is zero.
