ODB (Old Dirty B*tch), born, Jessica Nora Kresa, didn't gain her lust for blood directly from the watching wrestling as a youth. She actually spent part of her youth on the ice playing hockey where she would learn how to maneuver and eliminate her competition with brute force. ODB has became known for her Power Slam finisher, TKOs, and Fall Away Slams that have secured many of her wins throughout her professional wrestling career. If you want to see a true display of strength, look no further than ODB.
Prior to finding her way to Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA), Kresa tried out for the WWE reality competition show, Tough Enough in its inaugural season. Unfortunately, ODB finished in the top 25 of the competition, but that didn't stop her from pursuing her aspirations as she began training in her home state of Minnesota. After a short stint in the Ohio Valley Wrestling (OVW), TNA reached out to her for an exclusive pay-per-view event that would propel her career into a full-time act in 2008. Since then, ODB has earned four TNA Women's Knockout Championships and a TNA Knockouts Tag Team Championship alongside partner Eric Young.
