Tessa Blanchard finally has a home after over a year and a half as a free agent, as she will be featured as the top star for the upcoming WOW Wrestling relaunch ‘WOW Superheroes’.
It appears that Blanchard’s influence goes beyond just being the premier talent for the brand, as Denise Salcedo shared a casting notice posted by WOW Wrestling, which lists Blanchard as a casting director.

Blanchard’s signing has been rather polarising, bringing a lot of negative press to the promotion, which WOW appeared to reference in Tessa’s new t-shirt design.
AJ Mendez is listed as an executive producer for the show. She will also be providing colour commentary. AJ recently explained why she chose to return to WOW.
