Professional wrestling career

Training

On her 18th birthday, Dennis signed up to begin training at the Squared Circle Training centre based in Toronto, Ontario, with Rob Etcheverria.[1] Etchevaria named her Cherry Bomb, and she began wrestling under the name.[1] She later trained with Derek Wylde.[9] She debuted in May 2005 in Oshawa, Ontario.[1]

Canadian promotions (2005–present)

Cherry Bomb debuted for the Pure Wrestling Association (PWA) in a match with 21st Century Fox on July 22, 2005.[9] She competed in the Elite 8 Tournament, but was eliminated by Danyah Rivietz in the first round.[9] Later in the night, she aligned with Kristal Banks only to lose to the tag team of Tiana Ringer and Luscious Lily.[9] She scored her very first victory against 21st Century Fox at a PWX event.[9] In January 2006, Cherry Bomb lost to 21st Century Fox in a match to determine the inaugural PWA Elite Women's Champion.[9]

She appeared for Ottawan promotion, Capital City Championship Combat, in 2008.[10] Cherry Bomb also wrestled for Classic Championship Wrestling (CCW), and once held their Women's Championship, which she successfully defended against Evilyn, Alexxis, and Jaime D.[11]

Cherry Bomb was part of the debut show of NCW Femmes Fatales on September 5, 2009, where she lost to Sara Del Rey.[12][13] She gained her first victory in the promotion on February 6, 2010, when she defeated Mistress Belmont.[14] She was scheduled to wrestle against Daffney at NCW Femmes Fatales' third show, but was unable to make the show.[15] At Femmes Fatales IX on July 7, 2012, Cherry Bomb and Sweet Cherrie unsuccessfully challenged The Canadian NINJAs (Portia Perez and Nicole Matthews) for the Shimmer Tag Team Championship. After the match, Cherry Bomb attacked Sweet Cherrie, blaming her for the loss.[16]

On May 1, 2006, Cherry Bomb debuted in Great Canadian Wrestling (GCW), quickly associating herself with Jake O'Reilly, whom she began managing.[9] In 2006, Cherry Bomb wrestled at the Super Hardcore Anime Wrestling Expo show, a combination of the 10th Annual Anime North Convention and GCW's Great Canadian Wrestling Expo show, where she teamed with LuFisto and Darkston as Team Sailor Moon to defeat Team Rocket (Timothy Dalton, Pandora and Steve Brown).[17] She competed in the tournament to determine the inaugural GCW W.I.L.D. Champion on November 18, 2006, and defeated Portia Perez in the first round before losing to Sirelda, the eventual winner of the tournament, in the semi-finals.[18] She continued competing in GCW throughout early 2007, teaming up with Hayden the Destroyer to defeat Cody Deaner and Portia Perez at New Year's Evil on January 12, and teaming with Sirelda to gain a victory over Deanna Conda and Aurora on April 13. The following night, on April 14, she won the W.I.L.D. Championship by defeating the reigning champion, April Hunter, Hailey Rogers, and Miss Danyah in a fatal four-way match at the Anarchy in Angus show.[19][20] She successfully defended the championship by defeating the Southside Stranglerette by disqualification, and held the championship for just over two months, before she was defeated by Miss Danyah at Random Acts of Violence on June 22.[19][21] On September 7, 2007, Cherry Bomb suffered a neck injury during a victory over Danyah.[1][22][23] The injury forced her to take a nine-month hiatus from wrestling.[1]
