I'm of two minds on it. Yeah, she's an ingrate, for sure, but it's not like it was altruism on Impact's part. They wanted to get attention on the company, and pushing her in a high profile did just that, it just, uhh, went south, bad. Honestly, I don't even think Impact got that much hype out of it. They put their men's title on a woman, but no one really cared, and no one outside of Impact talked about it, and the reason no one in the business got excited over it is because Tessa and her ego was the one that did it. I wouldn't go so far as to say no one cared. I saw more hype on her than Sami, and maybe Cage, but yeah, not going to claim she was talk of the town, at least, not for great reasons. I mean, I didn't see people trying to pass audio off as Cage taking a shit. That's... something, I guess?

No one celebrated the fact a woman became world champ In a world where talents go across company lines to talk about talent she got absolutely nothing. In fact the only one who actually said anything to her on her own show was I think Gail and considering her rep for being selfish that isn't surprising

Like it’s been said already in the here, they are known to give known headcases and troublemakers at least ONE shot eventually (Aries and Low Ki for example), so it wouldn’t surprise me.

There's always the possibility WWE had sent out feelers to her and that is what caused her to go all IDGAF about TNA right now.

A match like Tessa vs. Charlotte sounds great on paper, but I feel like the moment they start asking her to put over others, it's going to fall apart.

Tho as said this probably has them souring a bit because while they send out some notes to see if you’re interested, they actually like people to finish their commitments This is one of those things where like Aries she will probably be on triple one thousand probation

Matt Riddle was supposed to have a match in Ireland but got pulled since he had to be in New York for Summerslam weekend which helped the fact he had a match there already for the indies there. In hindsight, kind of glad Ishii/Riddle didn't happen and we got Ishii/Juice Robinson...

Someone that could probably use a change of scenery in another year and would fit well in AEW

I think it’s actually programmed into Office as a default AutoCorrect setting now.

Exhibit A of how hard it is to remove the toxic from your brand Once you f*** up all the old memories come flooding back

After letting go a bunch of loyal workers, I would hope WWE doesn't throw money at Tessa. But if they did, they deserve every headache she causes them.

Also, nicest dude.

The match would be amazing, but both women are crap babyfaces and shine as asshole heels. The match is still doable Charlotte is better as a tweener/heel while Tessa real life credibility is shot and she must be a heel. Heel vs Heel feuds can work and you just let the crowd pick the default face in the match for pacing purposes which would probably be Charlotte

Imagine being asked to send in some promos from home on your f***ing phone camera and that being too much for you. Well she wanted her standard day rate for them. So I can see the money issue.

I'd be interested in this, just to see the train wreck of her ego meeting the WWE locker room, and Vince's.
