9 Wrestlers Who Vanished Off The Face Of The Earth
2. Tessa Blanchard
Tessa Blanchard was the stand-out performer in the four-way women's match at All In.
She marshalled the match tremendously and generated the loudest pops with her beautifully impactful offence. She had mastered the safe execution of moves that looked like death because she was prodigiously gifted - easily the best North American wrestler to have emerged outside of WWE's Four Horsewomen during the 2010s. For pure in-ring acumen, some would position her above at least one of the vaunted four.
She's so talented that to this day, some fans petition for her big career move. There was even a movement of sorts hoping that she'd be the act revealed to be Diamond Mine on NXT last year.
This simply isn't going to happen because Tessa has - yes! - made herself unemployable.
Notorious for being difficult to work with, which often acts as a euphemism for "is an outrageously self-centred and only gives half a sh*t about looking good at the expense of their collaborator", Tessa doesn't just have her detractors: she has alienated entire locker rooms, every last peg and suitcase, and was even said to have racially abused a co-worker.
Someone in AEW already has the only nickname that describes her: the Problem.
