Tessa Blanchard has given an update on her status via Instagram. Blanchard, whose likeness was recently used and removed from WWE Battleground, says her absence is due to her wedding and honeymoon. She adds that she’s been reflecting on some of her recent problems, including allegations that she’s a racist, and assures everyone that she’s never used racist language. She says that’s “not her.” You can read the whole post below.
The last we heard, Tessa Blanchard was a free agent who both AEW and WWE have considered pursuing. At one point, there were rumors that the WWE was considering doing a second all-women PPV, Evolution 2, which would have been a potential debut date for the third generation superstar.
I’ve been away for a while, the main reason for that is to focus on my wedding & honeymoon. The past few months I’ve gotten back to the basics & been focusing on the relationships I have with family, friends & myself. The point of this post is because I’m taking back the control of my narrative. I’ve had people weigh in on what I should do, what I should say, what interview to do, where to go.. now, I want to listen to what I want and what’s in my heart. I am so blessed in so many areas of my life & I am so grateful to have such strong people in my life. & I regained control of that mindset.. that I know who I am. At the end of every day I can look in the mirror and say ‘I know that woman, I like that woman, I love who that woman is becoming and what she’s capable of’, that’s all I need. racist? That’s not me, that’s never been me, I don’t have a history of being that way, I don’t have a history of using that language & that’s the end of it, it’s just not who I am. & I’m tired of being called & my family seeing me be called something so hateful. Who I am is a woman that cares deeply about my passion and putting in work. Who I am is a woman that gives 110% at whatever she does whether it was waiting tables, extra curricular school work, the next workout, or in the ring. Who I am is a woman that prefers to be viewed as tough as nails instead of having any form of weakness. Who I am is a woman completely driven by my passion & what I believe God has for me in life. Even with those little details about me, at the end of the day none of it matters.. we are each responsible for taking control of our own lives. I’m taking back control of mine..
