I think it's great!
She made history, she now holds a Title belt that AJ Styles, Samoa Joe, Kurt Angle, Bobby Lashley, Austin Aries and others held.
Incredible!

I don’t think anyone really cares that much about Impact Wrestling in general. Let alone who the champion is.
Plus, with all of the accusations... I’m sure people care even less.

Eh. I'm not a fan of women holding mens titles or men holding womens titles. Sure wrestling isn't real (BIG SHOCKER!) at least keep the illusion alive.

Did anyone actually watch the match, what’s your thoughts on the match itself?

As someone who hasn't watched Impact regularly in well over a decade, this struck me as a bid to make themselves relevant. Shame they did it with someone like her though.

I don't see why it's so monumental. It's Impact Wrestling. I think Tessa Blanchard is a good wrestler and a great athlete, but whatever.

They could push gender equality all they want, but I don’t see them outright pushing men in any Woman’s division in any promotion in today’s wrestling. Just sayin

Meh.
I'm more interested in what RVD has become now.

I saw the match. The match was good. Am i a fan of the title change? No. Pretty much if Tessa could challenge, and win the World Title, then why cant next week women like Taya, Jordynne, ODB, etc do the same? To me, IMO, the Knockouts Title lost value because if a woman could wrestle for the World Title, why should a woman champion want to win a women only title when the World Champion is a woman? Reminds me of when Rey Mysterio won the World Title in 2006. The Cruiserweight title meant nothing to me cause I'm seeing a Cruiserweight as the World champion. I know some people are gonna argue my opinion. Oh well.
BTW, I guarantee if it were someone else (cough*a man* cough), that was found to do what Tessa did, and they were in Tessas place, they wouldn't have won the title, IMO

I'm happy for her, they told a story that was a year-long so this was no over-night whim thing. Yes IMPACT is probably just above CZW and under MLW or ROH, but that shouldn't make what Tessa achieved to be insignificant. Hulk Hogan said some crap but I don't think he's a racist, Tessa probably said some stuff she now regrets, but again that doesn't make her a racist, people need to get over themselves like they are pure and perfect.
