The daughter of WWE Hall of Famer and everyone's third favourite Horseman Tully Blanchard, Tessa Blanchard has featured on NXT on a number of occasions already. Despite not being entirely successful, she has garnered enough of a buzz for momentum to gather behind signing her, although she isn't exactly shy of options.

Tessa got off to a decent start, being trained by her father and Magnum TA, and has starred in Shine Wrestling since making her debut in 2014. Sure, she's still a little on the rough side in the ring, but she is almost tailor-made for the WWE Performance Center and subsequently NXT.

Second and third generation wrestlers are all the rage, and Tessa Blanchard more than fits that mould. I'd be very surprised if she wasn't a fixture in NXT in 12 months time.

Born in the middle of Wales in the middle of the 1980's, John can't quite remember when he started watching wrestling but he has a terrible feeling that Dino Bravo was involved. Now living in Prague, John spends most of his time trying to work out how Tomohiro Ishii still stands upright. His favourite wrestler of all time is Dean Malenko, but really it is Repo Man. He is the author of 'An Illustrated History of Slavic Misery', the best book about the Slavic people that you haven't yet read. You can get that and others from www.poshlostbooks.com.
