The coronavirus pandemic has proved to be a big hurdle for different fields and pro-wrestling is no different. Recently, Impact Wrestling fired Women’s Champion, Tessa Blanchard from the company and stripped her from the reign.
Reportedly, Tessa Blanchard has quarantined herself in her Mexican residence. She hasn’t actively participated in the activities of Impact Wrestling. She was supposed to send the taped promos for June’s episodes but failed to do so. The promos were planned following her title defence at Slammiversary on July 18 against Eddie Edwards, Ace Austin, and Trey. She was also accused of racist remarks on several occasions, by her co-workers.
Considering Tessa Blanchard’s not-so-positive response, the company decided to terminate her contract and strip her from the championship. She won the gold at pay per view Hard to Kill, earlier this year.
