Tessa Blanchard posts private messages with La Rosa Negra to shut down a years-long controversy

Tessa Blanchard has once again taken center stage in the debate, but this time with a very different message than in previous years. The wrestler, whose name was tarnished in 2020 by serious accusations of bullying and toxic behavior backstage, has publicly shared a private conversation with La Rosa Negra to demonstrate that both are in a good personal and professional moment.

The story dates back to the outbreak of the "Speaking Out" movement, when several female wrestlers exposed abuse situations in the industry. In the midst of that climate, Blanchard was singled out for an alleged incident in Japan in 2017, where she was said to have spat and directed a racist insult at La Rosa Negra. Although Tessa vehemently denied that accusation, the impact was devastating: her career in TNA Wrestling was shattered even as the world champion.

La Rosa and I are on very good terms and we talk occasionally, usually about wrestling. I would love to see her in TNA someday.

In the exchange published this Saturday, Blanchard avoids revisiting the incident, arguing that both have moved forward and that the original discussion, according to her, did not have a racial component. The central message revolves around closure, personal growth, and the possibility of La Rosa Negra joining TNA in the future.

The response from La Rosa Negra was equally relaxed, recalling with laughter how they used to discuss creative ideas together with Moody Jack and making it clear that their current relationship is positive and cordial.

It is not the first time that the two have publicly shown their rapprochement. In 2023, they already posted a photo together with a message about "time, growth, and healing," indicating that the conflict had been resolved for years, although neither had shown direct evidence of their private communication until now.

A chapter that not only marked Tessa

Controversy has always accompanied Blanchard's career, but so has her immense talent in the ring. Her professional downfall was as rapid as her rise, and this gesture aims to repair a narrative that has haunted her for almost a decade. At a time when TNA is gearing up for its television relaunch, any sign of stability around such a polarizing figure is a move that the company scrutinizes closely.

It remains to be seen if this reconciliation opens the door to a future collaboration between both on television. If it happens, it would be one of the most striking comebacks of the new TNA cycle and an opportunity for Blanchard to definitively reshape her public image.
