Tessa went from winning the world title and bringing Gail kim out of retirement to impact not even uttering her name in over 2 years
Sad how she has fallen...
@Honest youtubr definitely not overrated
@@gqsmoove87 unless you're a diehard wwe fan, chances are you are not aware of Tessa Blanchard.
@@pinroshan020 did you mean die hard wrestling fan? A die hard WWE fan probably wouldn’t know anyone 🤣
@@AgeOfWrestling she did it to herself sadly
You can't wrestle alone. It takes promotions, crowds, and a lot of people. It doesn't matter how much talent you have if everyone legit hates you.
As long as ur not a pedo or racist. Ppl will always find work for u 😅
Benoit murdered his family, dude still gets praised to the moon.
She needed to give a heel promo after winning the title. Would have gotten her plenty of heat.
Racism doesnt exist
You can't rely on the locker room to gauge hate, because the locker room hates anyone who the office is pushing. This is a stupid way of doing business. Personal problems equals money.
Her talent is basically on the top of the pyramid. Her likability backstage is basically underground, below the pyramid. Its too far of a climb for her to be back on top unless she throws away her ego and pride and learns to be nice to everyone backstage. She would be a huge plus to either WWE or AEW if she does
Imagine if she didn't have these issues, kept building up her resume and finally debuted in WWE in an angle against Charlotte based on their Dads' history
Her and Velveteen dream's fall from grace is honestly astounding
I honestly wouldn't put those two in the same category. What Tessa did is still "allegedly" and mere words. What Velveteen did was flat out pedo sickness. These two aren't in the same category.
What happened to velveteen dream
@@siyabongasimelane4023 pedo coke addict
@@AceGoodheart It's less about the specific nature of who did what, and more so about two superstars with so much potential, but won't be able to realize it at least in the near future regardless of the circumstances surrounding their individual situations.
@@x4president1 Great response without feeding into drama. 👌🏾
She's the perfect example of somebody being their own worst enemy, whether they realize it or not. She had tons of potential, but just could never keep her mouth shut and attitude in check. Looking back, it was very telling when she was one of the first women eliminated in the Mae Young Classic 2017, where she lost in the first round to eventual winner Kairi Sane.
I think it's all bunk. Other than the hogging of the Impact belt in 2020, all the other stuff is just unproven. Tessa wanted to be the next Charlotte and to get treated that way, but the big promotions had a quota only for one, or no money left over for her. The accusations were emphasized to work as cover for not giving her the same stature. The fact that she didn't bow to PC claptrap and the "apologize" crowd was her finest moment as a human being. She may yet return to the biz and get her due.
Man I honestly don't even think it was that bad whats bad is the the onslaught of social media vigorously attacking her like she could never move on for that, like everyone of those fucks has a pristine and perfect life without ever saying some jacked up crap. People are way to sensitive, I hate this era.
@@smoogles.5534 what did she say or did to make her career nosedive???
@@smoogles.5534 If the things she did was true, it's all on her. Nothing to do with people being sensitive.
@@num1Jaysta She said what she said words are words, you brush them off, but now they carry on with you for decades because social media weaponizes it to the point you're never forgiven and a bunch of no life ghouls who don't have equal the amount of success will forever try to keep that individual down. Peeps acting like she murdered a billion people.
Its beign 4 years ... maybe it's time to turn the page and give another chance to Tessa
My questions are, if she didn't say it, why would she admit to saying it? Further more why ask for forgiveness for something she didn't say?
I see a strong comparison between Tessa and Teddy Hart. 2 incredibly talented 3rd generation' wrestlers 'whose attitude problems got their careers killed
She has done nothing noteworthy to begin with
Like Teddy Hart, Tessa is a spoiled brat who was use to always getting her way. She isn't racist or anything over the top, she is just spoiled as hell.
@@CharlieEst1981 I agree
@@patricktate5734 the sad thing is if this didn't happen she would've.
At least Teddy Hart is not a racist.
I have to agree, Tessa Blanchard would have been one of the best women's wrestlers in the world today and all she had to do was apologize, maybe take some therapy and counseling and chances are she probably would have been an aew or WWE but she chose to double down and now it seems like her career is now basically dead and buried.
Yeah it’s so sad that she could’ve fixed the situation simply if she didn’t have so much pride. She caused her own downfall
People don't accept apologies anymore. They just get angrier because they are programmed with the outrage/woke/cancel mentality. EVERY person who steps outta line must be permanently banished from society.
She should only apologize if she meant it. If she was sincere in her words, let her live by it, and die by it. This world lacks so much authenticity already. Anyone who's keeping it real is welcome in my books, even if what they stand for, I don't agree with it.
Fed up of the lies and deceit.
Everyone doesn't need therapy. People are very soft these days. Need to learn how to move on. No one is perfect
The problem is, there are three sides to every story, The two sides and the truth. Unfortunately we never really got her side to add to the allegations of others to see the truth, which is usually somewhere in the middle. BTW there is no redemption in cancel culture, name one person that was forgiven for their transgressions. The only people that that survived cancel culture, are those that carved their own path and didn't bend the knee. Johnny Depp, Gina Carano, they forced people to see them, despite the cancel pressure and came out of it in many ways better than before. Johnny is the top seller of Dior's cologne and Gina is making movies in other places and even got her own movie idea made and out in theaters. This whole apology thing is Bullcrap, there is no redemption when you bend the knee to these people. It's like a dog, the moment you cower to them, they KNOW they OWN you
The unprofessional way she went about the Impact situation along with allegations of racism was definitely the nail in the coffin. You don't refuse to do work, especially as champion and you certainly don't try to hold up a company for an insane amount of money when you refuse to do said work. It wasn't just the racism allegations, it was her unprofessional behaviour as well.
Honestly, if she's shows remorse with how she handled things with Impact, with the amount of friends she still has in there, she could make a comeback. So many have done worse haven't got blackballed, she could easily fix her image if she bothered to try mending that bridge.
She’s a racist pos she must stay blacklisted.
What's weird is that up to the pandemic, there was never any word of her casuing trouble backstage at impact, probably because she had gail kim to listen to.
That's a good point. I feel like most of the problems that surfaced with her attitude problems were problems that were prior to her joining IMPACT
What’s also interesting is that they had all this time to bring forward what allegedly happened (2017) and conveniently waited until the night before Hard to Kill to turn it loose.
@@ronniesouthern7829 is was due to that tweet wasn't it? Once you get too high up on the soap box the virtue signaling becomes a sh*t show that many aren't keen on ignoring anymore.
🤷
@@willdiesel8431 Yea sumn about woman putting stuff aside to come together
Yeah basically moral of the story, never use twitter. Or any social media for that matter. Allows people to grab ammo to bring you down without much effort.
None of this would've happened if she kept herself off Twitter saying shit.
A Tessa Blanchard vs Charlotte Flair feud leading to Wrestlemania would probably make me actually watch WWE. The sheer depth of talent, history between the two families, current 4 horse women angle, etc.
Even if she’s only there for that angle that’s all it needs to be for a gigantic payoff for everyone involved.
I agree. As for her career 'derailing,' I think that narrative of her career is over hyped. You claim Kairi's career derailed when she was underutilized in WWE, but look, she is back as a champion at Stardom in Japan. Shotzi's career was said to be derailed 5 years ago when she was removed from Tough Enough, but now she is a main roster attraction. They said Paige was finished, but she is in a top in-ring role on AEW now. All Tessa needs to do is become champ in AAA or NWA, and she can leverage that for a comeback in the US.
Two major egos wouldn't work together very well. Charlotte wouldn't want to lose clean and sell her opponents offense unless it makes her look good. Tessa would be an issue as well.
Would love to see that!
@@BiG-JuPO1O1 Charlotte has put Ronda and Becky and Sasha over tho…they all have egos im sure
@@elcampeon212 Charlotte never put Sasha over, Sasha was used as stepping stone to make Charlotte look good.
Very good video, you gave small details I still didn't know. Thanks 👍🏼!
@0:23 That’s actually wrong. The first female World Champion of a major wrestling promotion is Sexy Star in Lucha Underground.
I was a VERY CASUAL wrestling, mainly keeping up with what was going on via Wrestletalk, Whatculture (before the fun group left and created Cultaholic) but I genuinely loved watching videos of Tessa Blanchard. It’s a shame that all we have now is “what could have been”.
We have to stop this cancel culture bullshi# . Everyone doesn’t have to like everyone.I met people I didn’t like. That doesn’t mean I hate their race. I’m from Guatemala and people disliked me but I don’t care at all. We all as humans feel like we feel no other person is gonna change that
Cultaholic guys were the ass ends of the bread in the older what culture group
man. I just love your content. I started watching with kenny omega and young bucks documentaries and I just love every documentary type video you do. from your presentation to your way of saying, everything just feels perfect about these documentaries, to me atleast.
Thank you very much man. That means a lot.
This documentary was very professional and well put together.
Good work.
She should not apologize for something she may have not said!! I wouldn't.. why admit guilt to make the masses happy .. noooooo stand your ground
I’ve wanted her in WWE for so long, especially with her being a wrestling legacy from the Blanchard family.
She’s so young, has a great look, and is fun to watch in the ring.
Wwe are trying to sign her still
@@matthewsmith6176 I wish she would’ve owned up to her mistakes tho. Hoping she can avoid further issues and have a long great career
@@matthewsmith6176 yes i saw a story online in the recent past about that, it was either September or last month. They(WWE) have the desire to sign her according to the story, however it might be next year and the they want these accusations and bad publicity to die down to a certain extent. It still depends on her attitude going forward, we will see what happens.
@@rayparker4231 she was already in wwe
I actually think a Blanchard went to WWE she probably would have feuded with Charlotte Flair and possibly team with her and I think that would work out.
Yeah it would have worked out seeing that they are both daughters of horsemen members
Imagine her teaming up with Rhea Ripley?
amazing video as usual Sonny, exited to see what comes next.
She is now wrestling in CMLL... Oldest promotion in the world with presence and alliances with NJPW and other promotions around the world.
Tessa did work in NXT for a short while. Both she and Rachel Ellering started there. Sometimes humility pays off. If Tessa just swallowed her pride and disavowed any offenses against darker skinned women (whether real or imagined), I think there could still be a place for her in one of the two big companies.
She was just an enhancement talent and did very little. She dramatically improved because of her touring Stardom in Japan and working with top indie women in SHIMMER.
Tessa is a piece of racist trash. Good riddance.
If Tessa wasn't what she was, she would have been signed by AEW, became the face of the division day one, and Britt Baker would not have obtain the number one spot.
Yeah definatley. The fact that Tessa won at All In in the fourway match just shows that the Elite were hot on her from day 1
This story is pretty sad but at the same time you can’t help but not feel sort for her, anyways great video man
All of those "people" who excused her were obviously jealous of her abilities (including you) so that she would be moved out of the way in favor of lesser and cheaper talent!
I hope she redeems herself. I remember her match against Kairi Sane in the first Mae Young Classic. I was wondering why WWE never signed her. Impact gave her that huge push and she screwed them over.
Her problem was that she never really showed that she changed at all, absolutely no doubt if she shown even a glimmer of good then the main promotions would take her up.
Like even if the racism allegations aren't true, everything else afterwards just shows that she's full of herself.
Agreed, all she had to do was do like a video of her apologizing and maybe take some therapy or counseling showing that she's taking the initiative to change and become a better person chances are she would have been in a major promotion by now
@@thecharmcityplayerbrandona8827 FACTS tessa would probably be in a main feud in the wwe or aew women’s division right now.
Yeah thats true, She handled the situation so poorly. She should have taken accountability of her actions and apologized.
@@thecharmcityplayerbrandona8827 what happen to her
@@thecharmcityplayerbrandona8827, Dude lets get one thing straight, Whether she said it or not, there is no redemption for this. i honestly don't care one way or the other, but APOLOGIZING is not the answer, once you bend the knee they will never acknowledge you. Don't believe me? Say the word on one of your vid and see for yourself. Cancel culture has no path to redemption, once canceled you are expected to just go away, die or otherwise just disappear. Most people that are canceled, are canceled due to jealousy. if she was truly as good as you claim she was, then makes sense the other girls were jealous
Don't write her off yet! She's only 27. She's made some stupid mistakes just like most other people did in their 20's, but she's got a long way to go still. She will no doubt get yet another chance or five because her potential is off the charts and can't be ignored. She'll eventually learn from her mistakes, changes her ways, and finally becomes a massive star, or she won't learn until it's far too late (well into her 40's) in which case she becomes a tragic "what if" story. I sure hope it's not the latter, because that would be incredibly sad. I've never seen a better female wrestler then her. There are a small handful of other greats who come close, but all fall a little bit short next to Tessa. She's a once in a lifetime talent much like MJF on the male side.
The most damning thing of all is that she ended up getting fired from that WOW thing. You'd think that after the whole situation, after losing everything, that she'd straighten up and try her hardest to avoid any drama. Instead, she ended up being the drama again. Total shame, as she's got the skills and look to be on the absolute top of the wrestling business right now. Attitude is one thing. Lots of successful wrestlers had/have a bad atittude, but people have to be able to at least work with you. The fact that she can't even manage that is sad.
Great video. Impact continued to air weekly all throughout 2020 though.
If she stayed loyal and made Impact a priority they would have helped her get past the controversy. Instead she tried to hold up their title and it cost her her last lifeline of support.
Yeah impact still made her world champion after the accusations and left it on her. But when the pandemic hit she wouldn’t even cut promos for them so they moved on. She has an ego issue it seems
If she could get her stuff together, imagine her going to Aew and debuting against Jade!
All them people who accused her was jealous and judgemental
Thanks for the video
Her and Charlotte could dominate the world of wrestling
Just shows how a terrible attitude can destroy all the potential in the world.
So true, if only she straightened up her attitude
@@AgeOfWrestling FACTS.
in today's cupcake world..
@@fishbone08070 Don’t you miss the days when, you could be a pos to someone and you’d get a round of applause?
@@stevonwhite8933 that never existed but why tessa no longer gets work isnt because of fragile people butthurt by her behaviour. its because she's a head case who harms the morale of the locker room. just like any sport lockeroom morale is important. no wrestler is worth the problems.
Interesting that there are people accusing her of being a racist BUT no pulled out a phone and recorded her doing ANYTHING racist . How is it possible that with today's technology not one voice recording or video of her being racist towards ANYONE exist ?
It appears to be a case of her co-workers being jealous of her success & telling lies to get rid of their competition .
Do you honestly believe every shitty moment involving people a camera phone is conveniently going to be around? she got called out by several female wrestlers for being piss poor human being backstage. Where there's smoke there's fire.
@@AquaFresh48 so if a woman says you grabbed her @$$ & 6 of her friends say they saw you do it then we should believe what those 7 women are accusing you of and NOT believe you when you say that they are making false accusations ?
Could you imagine if people held Shawn Michael’s to the same standards. If he had a backstage heated argument with someone then he gets fired and cancelled forever!!!! I say give her a chance she might change as long as she isn’t dangerous in the ring at some point you gotta give people a chance to be better then their mistakes.
There is a massive uphill battle for her to get back in the good graces of the industry. Even if she didn't use a racial slur, she still has a history of being terrible to other female workers. She would need to basically admit to her wrong doing and apologize before doors could be opened for her again.
I don't think that's necessarily true. She just keeps getting in her own way.
No she does not. She got into arguments. Who else hasnt.she got mad and allegedly with no proof Said some words. That's not enough to have her career ruined
@@wingedhussar1453 yea and all these women claiming she said all this crap are probably the same women that wanted to get rid of her from the start
@@ChrisM-wv4gs yup
No one shoud care what she said, only women talk like that.
That Bobby Fish clip always got me dying 😂
I feel like she was excused because of people’s jealousy I don’t believe she said those things
Very well done. You have a new subscriber in me.
Having just met Tessa at Big Event in NY, she was such a nice person. She is a gem to fans at the least as me and a group of friends all sat and talked to her for about 15 minutes about random nonsense. She was genuinely intrigued with what were talking about. Shame how her career has derailed but I believe she still has a decent chance to right the ship.
It could be haters as usual.. remember the beginning of the vid claimed that the other women didn't get along with her. Then again Maybe the other women were right. We don't know and most likely never will
"She was nice to ME, so..." is quite the selfish take.
@@gamesmoney1025 There were witnesses. Witnesses who speak up are different from haters. The true definition of a hater is someone who hates on things that make no sense. But if people were there and saw/heard what she did and called her out on it, that's not hate, that's them calling her out on her hypocrisy/lies. And the person she did it to wasn't even the one who initially spoke up; even when they tell the story, they just want to move on from the event. Now, if someone who wasn't there was just saying negative things about Tessa that are ridiculous (ex. saying she's a bad wrestler, something misogynist, etc.), we can call that being a hater.
She did nothing wrong.
@@LadyAstarionAncunin But they didn't call her out until the tweet.
They should have said something at the time.
Also worth mentioning again is that had she not been treated so badly backstage in her early career. She might not have developed the attitude that made her, her own worst enemy.
There's plenty and 2nd and 3rd generation superstars, even 4th right? How come none of them turned into complete asswads with egos? (Well, I am sure some probably did but not most)I bet they all dealt with the same bullshit backstage. Maybe they weren't asses to begin with. Her father was still actively in the business at the time. The Rock had bullshit with HBK before he was an adult and even wanted in wrestling, but then again, so did the entire company becuase HBK was a self entitled jackass but guess what? People like that shine because their talent is that good which seemingly was the case for her as well. She just needed to not be a dick to everyone else. Especially to the other girls she worked with on a daily basis.
@@ingy421 You forget that it did mention some were dicks to her first. And that happening for long enough or bad enough, can cause you to develop a defense mechanism(being the dick first before they can).
As for other multi-generational talent maybe they were prepared for the backlash better, maybe they lucked out with friendlier locker rooms in the start of their career, or just maybe they are just as bad and we never hear about it.
Always an irony that people who get treated poorly and know the pain of the treatment choose to do the same when they’re in a position to do so over sparking change and treating people well.
Really hope she makes it back. I can't believe NJPW hasn't tried to bring her to Japan.
My guy did not hold back on his commentary AT ALL! Well done 👍🏾
Imagine Blanchard having a long-term rivalry with Charlotte Flair on WWE's main roster. Both of them modern progidies of two former Horseman. It's a shame it didn't work out well for her.
Her fault!! *shrug*
agreed. I would've genuinely liked that feud if it actually happened. but unfortunately Tessa had to screw up her opportunities & her career
I think that Tessa could do the work still and make a comeback and people might accept it. I think there’s very few things you can do in wrestling that you can’t come back from. Hogan being a prime example, yeah, he’s more legendary than Tessa but Tessa’s accusations are just that, very probable accusations but still accusations. Hogan’s had audio/video proof and a widespread well known lawsuit attached to it. So there’s always the possibility Tessa could eventually come back, apologize, and I think she’d be welcomed back. And I personally think somewhere like WWE would be a good fit for her if she was coming back. WWE has a way of helping people grow up somewhat it seems. People like Orton , Cena etc. with guidance and a little help I think Tessa could eventually be looked at how she should have been without all this.
You know I never really looked at it like that. WWE could help her to grow up. I feel like WWE may be the last hope for her in terms of mainstream wrestling.
Yaa but those guys had strong locker room leaders back in the beginning like taker
@@jimbowlan5804 I believe in allowing someone to do the work to get better. She’s still fairly young so she’s got time. I could see her ending up in WWE because yeah there’d be a little backlash from the hardcore internet fans but, and I’m not punching down, just statistically speaking a large portion of WWE fans are children or people who don’t really follow the behind the scenes news, so they might be able to do it with that audience, but I don’t think you’ll ever see her somewhere like AEW or anything like that again unless she does some major work and makes some pretty hard apologies.
I'm not a big fan but she has all the technical ability , mic skills, physical presence and talent that very, very few wrestlers have. One would hope that some good guidance would benefit her. The problem is that she has had chance after chance and she continues to make the worst decision possible. Tessa is her own worst enemy and she apparently can't see that.
its not worth it she's too much of a head case and is a lockeroom cancer. she's not thr first talented wrestler to ruin jer career because of lockeroom behaviour.
I've actually met Tessa a few times and while I understand what people say and even the evidence against her she was always super cool and gracious. Maybe if she takes a couple of years, mellows out and reflects on what's happened she will be welcomed back. Everyone deserves a second chance.
So talented. So stubborn. I hope she figures it out. She has the chance, but she needs to acknowledge her behavior.
Wow that was put together very well. It also explains a lot about Tessa. I'm praying for her. She is very talented. I would have absolutely loved to see Charlotte vs Tessa!!! Do you know how epic that would have been?! If she is really sincere and does not let her pride get the best of her. I believe in second chances.
U know whats more disgusting? Many of the girls were afraid to speak up because she was very popular and she would blacklist then from many indi companies SPECIALLY rosa negra, that was called N*** by her. she was afraid and asked Renee and the other girls to hide this situation. Look how fucked up this is? Man it doesn't matter the potential she had Wrestling is multi person job and for her to be like that before even stepping her feet on a big promotionreally shows she's not built for this.
Her last name will never allow her to Humble up; her douchebag father never did and it killed his career as well
Sincere about what? Fuck your feelings and those people. Are we so childish to let some words affect us? Like give it up. This generation are a bunch of little b itches because of people like you. No one who makes money via entertainment gives a fuck about feelings it's just they do things based on reactions of people like you. Apparently there are a lot of you pisses out there
I think there is a decent chance that she didn‘t insult that woman and spit in her face or that the incidents were exaggerated. Never underestimate how evil some women can get when they‘re jealous. I saw a recent case in my own life of a woman pretending a company descriminated against her cause she is lesbian just to sue them and get money. I won‘t believe any such story without video proof.
Dude this my first video I’ve seen by you and I love it😂😂😂 WHERES THE LIE??
Then you called me a Jobber😤
I remember seeing Tessa at a bingo hall show way back before all the fallout and felt like she was way too good to be there. Sad she didn't have the kind of run she could have
I always thought it was a shame what happened. She was a great draw and pretty decent in the ring, also attractive and a decent amount of sex appeal.
Yeah true, she had all the aspects to be a superstar. such a shame how she wasted her career.
She was not attractive
She got yams frl

This was a great video that really covers Tessa whole issue. I try to give her the benefit of the doubt cause women have it so much harder and rumors spring over nothing, there's a clear pattern of behaviour.
The oxygen tank thing was a planned spot though, it wasn't real.
Bring her in…
We live in an era of forgiveness.
Tbh, I've never really watched Impact so I never saw her work but I've heard about her and knew she defeated Sami Callahan to win the Impact World Championship. The only time I watched her wrestle was at ALL IN.
However, after watching this video I can undoubtedly say Hell Yeah, She really is the female CM Punk 😐
She really was something special. Yeah she really comes with a lot of problems and backstage problems like punk lmao
CM punk was nowhere near this hard to work with at all 😂
So much potential...she could have had an epic feud with Charlotte...and could have easily been the face of any wrestling company...damn shame
Damn that was heartbreaking but a great video
Love the video! FYI, it's just "myriad" not "a myriad". Myriad can be directly substituted for the word "many" as an example as to how to use it. You wouldn't say "a many".
URGH! THIS VIDEO IS SO GOOD! I agree with all of it. Can't believe how she ruined such a golden opportunity like that.
I miss her so much. I'd like to see Tessa Blanchard in WWE or AEW too soon...
Good video.
And it is a real shame, I was a huge Tessa fan. Watched all her stuff in Impact and was waiting for her to show up in AEW. But I was also on Twitter when that stuff went down.
What a waste, but maybe it was for the best that she got “exposed” before she got too big and became another Cm punk or Hogan, aka, a locker room cancer.
If I were a promoter, I would hire her. To err is human, forgiveness is divine. Everybody deserves a second chance.
She should be able to redeem herself. Let someone sign her to a probationary period. I don’t believe she needs to be blackballed forever. There are wrestlers who done far worse who have been given several opportunities
100% a probation type of contract in NXT would be a great start if WWE is thinking of working with her. She's not a good fit in AEW, the inmates are running that asylum at the moment.....plus their women's division is nowhere near as developed.
it's amazing how a pack of females can get together and rally to get someone out like this. even the video narrator says he doesn't know for fact if she said it or not. terrible. it's her word vs a ton of people. I think this all a case of a bad attitude paired with not being everyone's friend and not likeable so it was easier to cancel her. it's wild since honestly men legends and current have done shittier things and stayed employed.
The problem is that it's year after year after year of behavior. Past is prologue. She's not like him in the same way, but she's like a female Punk. They keep showing people how they are, but people keep thinking their promotion will be the exception. No, they're just dickish (albeit in different ways).
@@60wwediva yeah and every single one of those women who had her blackballed are talentless unknowns…none of them ended up doing anything in the business…can’t name one
@@VeinySausage Being in WWE or AEW does not make you talented. There are wrestlers who were hired in both companies and are/were dead trash in the ring.
This one is still sad. 4 years ago, she was a dream match opponent for many of the biggest names in wrestling. Now, she’s become Voldemort- She Who Must Not Be Named.
This is a prime example of being mindful of your actions and what you say in the world of social media. If Tessa would have never posted her tweet, we would not have found out that she is racist. I believe in the women wrestlers who clapped back at her and especially Rose La Negra for her reputation has always been positive as a supporter of women's wrestling. Tessa dug the hole, put the career in the coffin, nailed shut, and buried it. She killed her wrestling career. Yes. We all make mistakes but we must own up to them as well. Tessa never owned up to what she did. She hope it will not surface but when it did, she didn't woman up and say she was sorry. She never told her fans she made a mistake. She never gave Rose an apology. Why? When you are a racist it is justified. That's the legacy of Tessa Blanchard. The wrestler who could have been and it will never know!!!
yeah right like an apology would have magically fixed everything. That would have been her admitting to the incident and she still would have been black balled. You ever notice how no people of color are ever accused of racism? Do you think that is because they never commit acts of racism? For example black people attacking asian people in America over the last few years was never called acts of racism, but that is exactly what it was. No one was allowed to call it that because calling it racism would have been an act of "racism". Once people have a crutch to lean on, they will in fact lean on that crutch until they can no longer. No one who has been accused of racism and apologized for it have ever been given a second chance. None of the people accusing her were ever on her level of talent and the story even starts off saying that many people were jealous of her. Just makes you wonder if there is some other motive for them saying those things about her... especially after they waited so long to say anything. Other wrestlers have been called out for being terrible backstage presences without a magic tweet that spurred it. Just seems suspect.
Just hate to see someone destroy their career over their own BS....she's just so good inside the ring. Loved watching her look over her shoulder during her ring entrance. Sometimes you just HAVE to apologize & realize you aren't perfect. I'd like to see her wrestle again but I just don't ever see it happening. Looks, ability, charisma...she had it ALL
This was really well done ! I haven't followed Impact for several years now , so I was kinda out of the loop about what exactly happened with her
She could have rebranded as "Contessa" once she fixed her attitude problems. Perhaps is she got involved in activities that required teamwork or perhaps train in Senegal doing Senegalese wrestling where she would be part of the minority giving her insight of how she had treated others. To first fix the problem she has to first acknowledge that there is something that needs improvement.
Senegal is weak...she deserves Lichtenstein
@@HollyKost naw send her to italy for her to do italian wrestling
Send her to the ICW and have her as your world champion
This is why I don't take advice from idiots on CZcams
She needed this hopefully one day she’ll get her attitude in check and actually try 😊
Another fantastic video man. Keep it up!!
Thank you very much bro!
I always thought she was the next big star for either AEW or WWE. She's the complete package. Imagine her against the likes of Britt Baker, Toni Storm, Chelsea Green, Charlotte Flair, Becky Lynch, Ronda Rousey, Bayley, Rhea Ripley, Bianca Belair, Sasha Banks, etc. What a sad way for her to go out. SMDH.
Could’ve went without Ronda
Why the hell did you mention that UFC reject?
God what a way to ruin your point. 🤦♂️
Toni Storm is worse.
Apparently Rousey smells of BO really bad. Multiple wrestlers who’ve had matches with her have said she stinks. It’s funny because I always thought she looked like she might be stinky and I finally confirmed it with a google search.
@@kevinmitchell766 toni storm looks like a hot thicc Barbie with an accent, she’s one of the best looking women in wrestling.
Didn't even watch this video. Just saw tessa blanchard, and I had to say she is greatness.
Impact was willing to give Tessa the benefit of the doubt on the backstage stories. She was gonna get past that.
All she had to do was turn in promos and show up for work. Drop the title and do it in a pro way.
Instead she made both AEW and WWE avoid her.
I am a Tessa Blanchard guy. She was (is) one of the best wrestlers in the world.
And a racist
@@pumpkinkingca2010
Any proof?
That's what I thought
I do think she said what she said, but I think we’re all guilty of saying something messed up,
As for being an actual racist, I don’t think that’s true.
Charlotte's WAY BETTER!!!!!
@@ZvvlXCIV there is proof!!! So F what the hell you thought! Dumbass.
Damn you Tessa. After watching this lil biography, i would have loved to have seen her wrestle ronda rousey, Charlotte flair, becky lynch, sasha banks, Bailey, dmd, and so many others. But sadly social media has struck another wrestler. Watch what yall out on the internet, it always comes back.
4:08 , 4:58 can someone pls tell me the name of the opponents here?
I don't believe none of this, no evidence of what they claim on her
When you really think how many time you gave Jeff Hardy a chance come on now we can do the same thing for Tessa Blanchard!
And Tessa didnt put in risk a lot of lifes in different times like Jeff Hardy.
Exactly, accusations from jealous women vs countless drunk driving and wrestling under the influence
So you compare Jeff to Tessa? So racism is equal to smoking weed or driving under the influence? Cool story. Lol.
@@TALISCA666 if the wrestling business stopped giving chances to people who did drugs....it wouldn't exist.
@@FlatrockFlatheads you are being delusional
Thanks for making this video. I too mourn what could have been a history making career. Tessa deadass could've been the women's revolution pt 2 but... No such luck
Hold up dawg, you use the Tau Mogale meme😂😂😂🇿🇦
I remember being in NC for her first year in wrestling. She was part of what a lot of local indie guys jokingly called the "George South Loop", which mostly consisted of armory shows, the occasional parking lot show, and even a birthday party in people's backyards if someone paid enough. It was the standard hotdog and handshake start to wrestling. It was humble beginnings designed for the specific reason for young talents to be humbled. Even still, on those shows she usually stood out as the best thing on the card, especially against Crazy Mary Dobson (now Sarah Logan). She was always nice to fans, but I remember in her first year, HER FIRST YEAR!, she shot on a fellow trainee at one of the live shows for messing up a spot. The girl's always had 3 things synonymous with her: talent, the last name Blanchard, and a bad attitude.
@Jose Lino She took liberties and attacked her mid-match.
I don't recall Impact ever going "off the air" in 2020. They had nearly a month's worth of TV tapings in March that carried them through most of April. Then it was the closed sound stage for a year.
Yea wwe aew impact were the only companies that didn’t go hiatus due to covid
They also had videos of never aired old matches. It even featured wrestlers who had since signed on to other promotions.
Please make a video on Deonna Purrazzo's reign as double champ in Impact Wrestling..
She was nice and funny with me when we worked the same show.
I was a fan of her but she couldn't bring herself to apologize and move forward. It is her own fault.
Yeah true, it’s seems like all of the stumbling blocks in her career have been down to her
Damn, she would have made the AEW women wrestlers look like crap without even trying, she’s that good
I think Tony Kahn didn't want to bring her in b/c he was obsessed with pushing Britt Baker to the moon and he knew the fans would of been going crazy for Blanchard.
Or maybe, he just didn't want the headache.
@@davidgraham8299 little if both. More the headache I think though.
Errr no
Or he just doesnt want a hateful racist in his locker rooms.
Your best work yet!!! Tessa was my favorite women wrestler at the time could been the G.O.AT. Damn Shame !!!
Wrestling fans are not stupid, but I would put a mask on her and hope for the best. No, these things are not acceptable, but plenty of things have been overlooked/forgiven. She is too good not to sign. Literally for all the more she was a big thing, she really could have wound up as the best ever. She is worth the chance. Literally one of the top.five I have ever seen
You never apologize to the mob because for them it will never be enough. With Omega running the women's division at AEW she wouldn't have.been used well there
What you said is true. If you apologize the mob just attacks you even more and never forgives you
^^typical racism-apologist. it never fails... lol
@@misterhappy5462 ^^^^^oh no a silly little woke fool insulted me over the internet, I'm so upset.
The woke mob attacks people a for great many things, including real and IMAGINED racism. Most of the time because they are too limited I'm intelligence to allow any difference of opinion on any issue.
Whether guilty or innocent it's us less to cave in to the little shots because they will just attack you more.
And if you are so concerned about racism you should go after all those lily white progressive closet racists that infest your side. The turds that hurl racist insults at Leo's that are people of color or Clarance Thomas because the rest of left turns a blind eye to it. And you damn well know they exist and you damn well know those people.
You know where to shove your ignorant racist accusations.
No one is impressed with your virtue signalling
@@christophernemeth421 ^^^^^oh no a silly AWM stereotype feels insulted because i exposed him for being an inbred dumbass that still whines about "the woke mob" LMFAO good grief how tiny is your dick?!? you should be upset!
the irony that you're bringing up a "lack of intelligence for allowing any difference of opinion" while using alt right terms like "virtue signaling" anytime you argue with someone is hilarious. you're literally too stupid (& angry) to see the hypocrisy
and what the hell does racist white people on the left have to do with you victimizing racist white people on the right?? DO YOU SEE HOW FUCKING USELESS YOU ARE? lol
you know where to shove your ignorant racism-apologist nonsense--the same place your father touched in your younger years (which explains everything...)
no one is impressed with your incel projections. now go back to stormfront and cry about it. =)
@@misterhappy5462 I'm black and I actually agree with him. it's interesting to me that the black wrestler seems very goodie two shoes about it and didn't make this a big story but the white women did. I am sure the white wrestlers who used her incident to get tessa dethroned don't really give a shit about la rosa either. Tessa deserved to have her career tank but what good would apologizing do? even more attacks. once you get cancelled it's damn if you do damned if you don't. if wwe actually picked her up and she got to becky's level they wouldn't have spoken out against her and you know it,
So the classic “Women start drama for no real reason” is what ruined her huh? 😂
I guess so 😂
Hard disagree. The tweet, for those familiar with her actions, was hypocritical & hypocrisy brings people out of the woodwork.
@@kneau sounds like some modern women
@@abox6562 maybe? I've not read up on whether women are more actionably bothered by hypocrisy than men.
She's still young and can turn it around, if she chooses.
As a long time "fan" of wrestling (especially women's wrestling) I found this video very interesting. According to my good friend Larry Feintuck (who is also a long time wrestling fan and expert wrestling opinion person) Tessa Blanchard is not a "good" person out of the ring although that should not matter as far as her being a good wrestler which she was for her time.
