Third-generation pro-wrestler Tessa Blanchard, who was just named Impact Wrestling's "2019 Wrestler of the Year," is set to make history once again this Sunday, January 12, when she challenges Sami Callihan in the main event of the Hard to Kill PPV for the Impact World Championship.
Blanchard and Callihan clashed in a historic intergender main event match back at July's Slammiversary and that clash took home the honors of Impact's Wrestling's "2019 Match of the Year." This time however, the world title is on the line and Blanchard is the first woman ever to viciously vie for it.
"There are a bunch of firsts happening and women are given such a big platform now," Blanchard told IGN. "I've always wanted to make history in my own way. A way that's unique to me. A way that disrupts the business but also breaks barriers. I think Impact is giving us the platform right now where we can do something a little different and that's been my goal since day one. I want to do something different. I never knew exactly what that looked like. But this Sunday, this feud has been eight months in the making." Tessa Blanchard confronting Impact World Champion Sami Callihan immediately after he won the title."When [Blanchard and Callihan] were the main event at Slammiversary we didn't even know until the day of," Blanchard continued. "But going into this pay-per-view knowing we're the main event, knowing that we're doing something different, something that's making some people uncomfortable...it's something that some people support but for some people it disrupts them. It's cool because it shows that we're doing something special. It shows that maybe we are accomplishing something by evolving things on both sides of the locker room. It makes me a little bit nervous too just because it's something that I've thought about for six years. I never knew what making history in my own way would look like but it's all piecing itself together and coming full circle now. There's pressure that comes with that. There are nerves that come with that. But there's a lot of excitement too."
"Some people write it off right away without giving it a chance," she added. "For instance, I had a match during WrestleCon weekend against a man. And Santino Marella came up to me afterward and said 'I wasn't a fan of intergender wrestling, but now I get it.' And that's my goal. I want people to stay open minded it and get it. They don't have to like it. It's not for everyone. It's just like how there are so many different styles of wrestling. There's Strong Style, Luche Libre, and so many others. Maybe you don't like every style. There's nothing wrong with that. But at least give it a chance. What we're doing is something cool."
Impact Wrestling's Hard to Kill PPV goes down January 12 at 8/7c. The official live stream can be found on FITE TV.
