Tessa Blanchard may have left Impact Wrestling on bad terms, but that hasn’t stopped her from being the hottest free agent on the market and firmly in WWE’s line of sight.
It was assumed that Blanchard and WWE would be a match made in heaven, and the company reportedly sent feelers out to her the moment she was released. Recent rumors have said that Vince McMahon’s people are “chewing his ear off” backstage for him to hire Tessa as soon as possible.
Ringside News have since learnt that actually, nobody is chewing his ear off about signing Blanchard. The reality is quite the opposite in fact, with nobody speaking up to McMahon backstage because of the ongoing issues with the product and Vince’a tendancy to act irrationally.
A writer who has knowledge of the situation told Ringside News that Paul “Triple H” Levesque “has had open communication” with Blanchard recently. Though she may well be having talks with WWE, nobody knows just how far along those talks are at present.
Blanchard was due to report to Impact Wrestling for television tapings and their recent Slammiversary pay-per-view, but instead chose to stay in Mexico and hold the company to ransom. Despite her star power and obvious talent, this recent behaviour may well have given Vince and WWE some reservations on her signing for the company. It will also be interesting to see whether or not Blanchard will be expected to climb the ranks through NXT first.
