Former TNA World Champion Makes Surprise IMPACT! Return After Suspension

Tessa Blanchard has returned to TNA Wrestling. She appeared on the September 25, 2025, episode of iMPACT!, ending her two-month suspension. Her comeback directly influenced the match between Jody Threat and Victoria Crawford.

Blanchard’s music hit mid-contest, and she walked onto the stage, distracting Threat. The interference allowed Crawford to score the pinfall. After the match, Blanchard and Crawford embraced on the ramp.

This appearance closed the suspension that began after Slammiversary on July 20, 2025. That night, Blanchard lost to Indi Hartwell and reacted with a physical altercation, attacking both Hartwell and interviewer Gia Miller. Security removed her from the UBS Arena, and Director of Authority Santino Marella announced her indefinite suspension to the live crowd.
