Konnan recently shared his experience working with a WWE legend's daughter back in Mexico. He also revealed a major incident between Tessa Blanchard and Taya Valkyrie, which he "did not appreciate."
Speaking on a recent episode of the Keepin' It 100 podcast, Konnan, Glenn Gilbertti, and Chris Mason discussed Chelsea Green's comments about Blanchard. Gilbertti had no bad experiences working with the former Impact World Champion, but it wasn't the same with his co-host.
Konnan acknowledged that he did not have a good time working with Blanchard during her short stint with AAA. He also "did not appreciate" how the 29-year-old disrespected Valkyrie, who the former WCW World Television Champion considered his sister.
"She was difficult to work with in Mexico. Her and Daga, who were living in TJ (Tijuana) together, would show up late for just about everything. One time, she badmouthed Taya, which Taya is like my little sister, which I did not appreciate. One time she told me point blank, 'I don't give a (expletive) about Mexico. I'm only here because of Daga.' We'd be watching the monitor and 4:4 she'd be like, 'Well, why don't you do this and why don't you do this? How come in Mexico they don't do this?' I go, 'Because it's not American wrestling, you're in Mexico dude.' … She was very immature," Konnan said. [4:25 - 5:32]
Tessa Blanchard is the daughter of WWE Hall of Famer Tully Blanchard and the stepdaughter of wrestling legend Magnum T. A. She wrestled a few matches in WWE in 2016 and 2017, including a first-round matchup against Kairi Sane in the Mae Young Classic.
Her reputation suffered in January 2020 when several female wrestlers across different promotions accused her of bullying and racism. She has not been signed by a major company in the United States and is currently working for CMLL in Mexico.
What did WWE star Chelsea Green say about Tessa Blanchard?
Chelsea Green was one of many who accused Tessa Blanchard of bullying. So, when Blanchard opened up about her mental health struggles following the accusations against her more than four years ago, the WWE star couldn't help but comment on it.
"I don't wish self-harm or thoughts of suicide on anyone and hope she has found peace. However, a simple 'I am sorry' goes a long way. We haven't heard that yet. Accountability matters, and a redemption tour of interviews won't erase the actions of an egotistical bully," Green tweeted.
Chelsea Green and Tessa Blanchard worked together during the first-ever All In pay-per-view in 2018.
