I'm curious if Tessa may have been misheard and some mistook what she actually said for something else. Rose's name is extremely similar to the racial slur in question. If you walked into a crowded room and without warning yelled out negra. What do you think people are going to say they heard?

I heard that La Rose Negra used a racial slur against Tessa during their match and Tessa responded in kind but they squashed the dispute in the back.

Tessa is both wrong and right. She does not seem to be actually be racist, at least not in a Cornette type way. But she did call that girl the slur, other wrestlers saw it, which is why this shit went down. Something was up with younger Tessa on that Stardome tour and her attitude during that time is well documented.

Really disappoints me to hear her deny it. Guess she did not mature as much as people are making her out to have.

Even if the Rosa Negro stuff is not true, she ran Courtney Stewart off the same tour, another event that is well documented by the card having to be changed the next night.  I find it hard to believe that everyone is lying about one event, but the fight in the ring with Kagetsu (which was recorded) and the fight with Stewart are true.  If two of these events are true and a third is alleged, it would seem to indicate that the third event was also true as well.  

As for the slur maybe being misheard, she also spit in Rosa's face during their fight.  Hard to play this off a simple misunderstanding.  

Also so far seven people talked about what went down between Tessa and Rosa in Stardom so if you opt to believe Tessa it means these girls, some of which who have nothing against Tessa now and talk to her, are all liars.  Also Tessa's first response was why did you call her to talk about stuff, before denying it happened.  It appeared she was more mad at it being on social media than people lying about things.

Finally, there is a reason NXT cancelled her contract at the last minute.  She was already being used on shows and was looking to sign until the Stardom people were being used in NXT as well.  Once they came in Tessa's deal vanished.

Just like Stewart started the fight with Tessa and Kagetsu was taking liberties with her in the ring.  There is no evidence other than Tessa's stories that she was bullied on that tour.  Her backstage fights followed her to NXT too.  There is a pattern here in several feds.  And it makes sense.  Tessa was hotshotted because of her name and 19 or 20 on these tours.  Maybe she was not mature enough to handle thing and too much of a kid.  And maybe she has changed.  But she should still man up and apologize for her actions, something she is notably not doing.  Notice even in her statement she did not apologize if people felt she was racist towards them.  Tessa never seems to apologize though.

Eitherway this is supposed to have happened in the ring, so there is tape somewhere of it.

Sienna is going for blood. Reply to Tessa's statement.

I've heard that Tessa and Rose talked about it a few months ago, put it behind them, and moved on. Kind of a shame Allysin can't do the same.

Yeah just saw Rosa's tweet that her and Tessa talked about this three months ago. Again though, if Tessa would just admit she did it, instead of trying to work the fans the issue would die and she would look far better. Moreso if she really did work things out with Rosa.

I am finding it weird that people always claim they take a zero tolerance policy towards racism but once again see people saying the issue should be dropped and the conversation ended. Keep this talk off twitter and and move it behind closed doors were people can say it never happened. The attempts to silence Sienna happens whenever girls try speak out about things and it is pretty fucked up. I get a lot of people wish it never happened, but that will not change the past no matter how many times people lie.

Fuck Tessa Blanchard and fuck her "moment." She should have tried not being a racist.

And also, fuck every person here saying "Uhhhh why didn't they say something sooner? Why are they choosing now to speak out? What do they have to gain?" Go fuck yourselves. That kind of reaction is why people are scared of speaking out in the first goddamn place. Fuck off.

Holy hyperbole. Yeah fuck someone actually confronting the problem off the start if they truly felt what was wrong is wrong. If she was such a bully and jerk to so many female wrestlers, why did it take so long for this to now surface and for the said wrestlers to now speak because they have protection by being in a company now? It's cowardice, you can call it what you want. Awesome Kong didn't like how Bubba the Love Sponge was talking all that smack given he had Hulk Hogan's green light back in TNA and she popped him cold and took her exit from the company like a grown ass woman. 

When Samoa Joe did a shoot on Scott Hall not showing up to a TNA pay per view, Kevin Nash still wrestled in the match but asked him in the back who told him to say those words? Joe said it was his and Nash slapped him twice, one for him and one for Scott. That's how you handle someone out of control in your eyes. Not waiting for a moment like a snake in the grass to mention something passing followed up by "ITS NOT MY STORY TO TELL! But I am so offended by it that I wanted to take a shot at someone i don't like!". That's called riding on someone's tragedy to hit on your personal gripe with someone. 

And witch hunts and cancel culture are why suicide rates keep on climbing in today's society but hey don't let that interfere the prerogative! 

I'd have more respect for these people coming out with these stories if they either did something about this or did bring this up but was completely disregarded but they instead protected their pockets and kept it within until the time was right. It's pathetic. 

To be fair ... they only posted when she posted. No one proactively tried to sabotage her.

Also if this was solely to trash Tessa with stuff from the past and she was now changed, she would not respond to rumors about her being a bully by trying to blackall the person who said the rumors. Sienna may get some flak from people, but if the stuff she posted was legit, Tessa is just going to show TNA why so many will not book her as a result of this.

And now Tessa is apparently trying to find dirt to throw on Sienna/Allysin. 

I love this ongoing drama. More entertaining than any match or angle.

Does no one watch #NWAPowerrr!?!? Allysin Kay is most definitely a bully.

Where's Jazz when you need her? AK47 never beat her for the title.

That is probably why Impact got her. You don't go to Impact nowadays when you have better options.

she just said it without it being targeted to anyone, not her fault Allison Kay took offense to it. If Kay hated her so much, why is she going through her tweets? You'd block the person or not even bother replying no?

Tons of women responded. It wasn't just one person. The floodgates opened.

The rumors of bullying, harassment, threats of black-balling and generally negative behavior have followed Tessa for years.

But this? She brought on herself. If they'd all sprung it without any reason to sour her title win, this would be different.

No it isn't. Fairly important as these WOW incidents prove that she hasn't grown up and is still being a bitch.

What does growing up mean?

Are we racist as kids, and then not as adults? Pretty sure we tend to trend the opposite on average.

She went to WOW after Stardom.

And the attitude tends to mellow as people grow older. Not the racism. The racism was one incident. The bullying and harassment has been a trend.

I’ll finally weigh in. Tessa is a racist.. yeap. The others waited until the right moment to take it public.

Be adults, call it out privately. Sit down and nut it out. Each and everyone involved it is making this into a circus, more so than wrestling already is.

For things like this, I support being public. Being private does nothing if the person does not want to change. Also if done privately, multiple people will try to do something while everyone assumes no one is doing nothing so they will likely not to anything themselves. This silence is how we maintain the status quo. The public callouts at least put pressure on the person to actually do something and not return to business as usual.
