Tessa Blanchard is one of the most controversial wrestlers in the business today. She's been controversial for about five years now. It all started when she made a tweet in early 2020, calling for women to support one another.

Her plea led to many female stars publicly accusing her of bullying and racism. Blanchard later said the accusations resulted in mental health struggles. It seems fans aren't ready to forgive Blanchard, judging by the chants she received tonight at the Genesis event.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
