Tessa Blanchard has taken matters into her own hands.
A new episode of IMPACT Wrestling aired on the Pursuit Channel and on Twitch TV Friday night and the show featured an IMPACT X Division Championship match between the champion Rich Swann and Trey Miguel, Jordynne Grace took on Allie and the January 18th edition of the show saw former IMPACT Knockouts Champion Tessa Blanchard snap and attack a backstage producer. As Blanchard was unleashing forearms on the producer, TNA Hall Of Famer Gail Kim tried to stop Tessa but ended up the receiving end of a beat down from the "Queen Of The Carolinas".
IMPACT Wrestling co-executive Vice President Scott D'Amore and IMPACT creative writer Sonjay Dutt made on-screen appearances during this segment as well to alert Tessa that she was "suspended" from IMPACT because of her actions.

Tessa and Gail Kim have history dating back to IMPACT's 'Homecoming' pay-per-view where Tessa believes Gail Kim was the reason she lost the Knockouts Title to Taya Valkyrie.
