This will mark Tessa’s debut in CMLL. She previously competed in AAA and has been active in XPW and various independent promotions since making a return to wrestling in 2022. She stepped away from wrestling in 2020 to focus on school.
Blanchard departed IMPACT in 2020 and was stripped of the IMPACT World Title, she allegedly bullied others and made racist comments (she denied the allegations), and had a falling out with WOW Women of Wrestling after being announced as one of the faces of the company for the new season.
She made amends with La Rosa Negra, who she was accused of bullying and using a racial slur towards earlier this year.
Fightful will have results from CMLL following the conclusion of each event.
