New IMPACT WRESTLING Champion Tessa Blanchard Pulled From Indie Show Amid Bullying Accusations

Tessa Blanchard became the first woman to win the Impact Wrestling Heavyweight Championship last night, but there may be trouble ahead for the talented star as she's been pulled from an upcoming indie show.

Tessa Blanchard defeated Sami Callihan in the main even of last night's Hard to Kill PPV, becoming the first woman to ever hold the Impact Wrestling Heavyweight Championship in the process.

It was a great night for women's wrestling and for Blanchard herself, of course, but the win comes amid some pretty serious allegations.

Several fellow wrestlers have called Blanchard out on social media for alleged bullying and racist behavior, and this has led to the undeniably talented star being pulled from an upcoming Heavy Metal Wrestling show.


Tessa hasn't addressed the allegations yet (she did make a vague reference during her non-televised speech after last night's event), but she may want to think about doing so if she hopes to avoid any more cancellations.
