As a bit of fun for Thanksgiving, it scored over rubbish Turkey Bowl costume forfeit stupidities of years gone by.

Tessa Blanchard's push for her big match tonight seems to have backfired with several social media complaints from other female wrestlers disparaging of their past encounters with her IRL.

I’m taking this Tessa racism allegation with a pinch of salt as this”incident” happened 3yrs ago & is only coming to light now 24hrs before Hard To Kill.

Some indy promotion has already removed her from their show...
Whatever happened to innocent till proven guilty ? Social media and pc culture strikes again

Does seem an interesting time for this story to surface right before a match for Tessa v Sami for the World Title

That’s why I’ve taken it with a pinch of salt. It’s come out 24hrs before Hard To Kill. Still think Tessa will win the title tonight. Not saying this incident didn’t happen, just the timing of it coming out yesterday has put doubts in my mind, can see why this indie show pulls Tessa but agree, what happened to innocent till proven guilty. This won’t harm Tessa in the long term though, remember hulk hogan has been able to return to wrestling after his racism scandal

Tessa has apparently been difficult to work with though in the past & have been numerous reports of this over the years.

It came out when it did due to Tessa tweeting something to the effect of "Women should support each other" which led to her getting called out on (allegedly!) bullying and using racist slurs and just not exactly practising what she preaches.

Brian Cage is done with Impact, signing with AEW apparently

Interesting, but not surprised as he’s not done anything on impact for ages now. Also impact will be just fine, not the first time they’ve lost one of their top stars & won’t be the last.

I’ve no problem with Impact putting the title on Tessa as there is no hard evidence to back up this racist allegation, just people alleging she is
