10 TNA Characters You Totally Don't Remember
2. Cookie
Everybody likes cookies! So you can totally understand why TNA would want to make a character out of the delicious snack/dessert. Oh…wait. Cookie was a play on Snooki? Well, nevermind then.
In 2010, Jersey Shore was taking over the world of reality television. To 98% of the population, it was one of the worst things ever created in the history of the world. But that other 2% thought it was the greatest thing ever. Because of that, their cast of muscle bound, and ridiculous hairstyle goons became famous. So someone in TNA thought we needed a couple of characters based off the show on a wrestling program.
And so, we got Robbie E and his manager Cookie. They began feuding with Shore alumni JWow (the poor man’s Snooki...which...is about as low as one can get), and...that was pretty much it. Another Jersey Shore person came in (also not Snooki, possibly it was Wookie), and they began a feud.
Cookie’s cookie was crumbled when Robbie E broke up with her. Her entire run ran about 10 months. It’s probably because TNA realized a gimmick based off Jersey Shore would be absolutely ridiculous as a longterm act...which is something they’ve unfortunately never mentioned to Robbie E.
