Tessa Blanchard Rumored for Major Return to TNA Wrestling

Tessa Blanchard Reportedly Returning to TNA After U.S. Wrestling Hiatus

Former TNA (Impact Wrestling) Champion Tessa Blanchard, who has remained largely inactive in the United States wrestling scene following allegations of bullying, appears to be on the verge of a return to TNA.

Dave Meltzer of F4WOnline.com reported that Blanchard has potentially signed with TNA, which may explain her recent absence from CMLL. Meltzer wrote:

“The belief is that she’ll debut in Atlanta [Final Resolution], do a quick program with Jordynne Grace, with Grace then leaving for WWE when her current contract expires. At least that’s the talking point going around. But I was told Blanchard having signed is confirmed.”

Blanchard previously expressed her desire to return to wrestling in 2023, stating she had "unfinished business in wrestling."

Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful.com added further insights about Blanchard's rumored signing:

“Regarding Tessa Blanchard, there was a lot of talent that got word she was signing with TNA this week. When I asked higher-ups and others, they claimed they didn’t know. I’m told Jordynne Grace had pushed back on working with her.”

As anticipation builds for TNA’s Final Resolution event in Atlanta, all eyes are on Blanchard’s potential return and its impact on the promotion's landscape.

I'm told Jordynne Grace had pushed back on working with her.
