Tessa Blanchard Status Revealed for TNA Final Resolution

The rumors are no longer just whispers—Tessa Blanchard is officially backstage at TNA Final Resolution.

Just moments before the event kicked off, PWInsider confirmed the polarizing wrestling star’s presence, marking her first appearance with the company since her controversial exit in 2020.

TNA’s decision to re-sign Blanchard has been one of the most divisive moves in recent wrestling history, with the company keeping the news under wraps until now. Sources previously revealed that even much of the roster and higher-ups were kept in the dark about her return to avoid backlash.

Blanchard, once heralded as one of wrestling’s brightest talents, saw her career derailed after allegations of bullying and using racial slurs surfaced during her initial run with TNA. Although she denied the allegations, the controversy made her untouchable to WWE and AEW. Now, with a new management team in place and a “clean slate” mindset, TNA is rolling the dice on Blanchard’s return.

Reports suggest that she’s set to return as a heel and is likely to feud with Jordynne Grace. However, Grace reportedly expressed concerns about working with Blanchard, adding even more tension to this controversial comeback.

While some fans are eager to see Blanchard back in the spotlight, others remain skeptical about how her return will impact the locker room dynamic. As one insider put it, “The hope is that she’s on her best behavior because this is her biggest opportunity in years.”

TNA is also facing significant roster changes, with key stars like Speedball Mike Bailey, Jordynne Grace, and Josh Alexander rumored to be on their way out. Blanchard’s return could be a strategic move to bolster the roster as the company looks to the future.
