TK wants more AEW shows in MEXICO & Tessa is still wrestling in CMLL

CMLL early week results, Sin Salida lineup

"The most intersting bit was the Tony Khan saying AEW would like to run more cities in México in addition to Ciudad de México, though they’d do that with their CMLL partners. AEW in Arena Puebla would be fun, but that’s too small for AEW. (If you think reselling bad is now, it would be all time levels for that show.) Even Arena Coliseo Guadalajara might be too small for a first AEW stop in the city. CMLL’s clear that they will never run another building in México City beyond the ones they own. I think we’ve all assumed the same is true for Puebla and Guadalajara, but that’s never really been put to the test. (That crowd AAA drew at Arena GDL might have interested someone.) AAA’s ran TripleManias in Monterrey and Tijuana. Those would be logical places for a CMLL/AEW show for the same reasons, though CMLL has not been particularly strong in those cities. Khan brought up the idea as if there had been discussion towards running a second city; it came off more concrete than a “maybe someday we’ll run South America” type of response. This felt like something we’ll get an answer about in 2026. It’s going to be a year of Mexican wrestling being shaped quite a bit by people based outside of it."

But I was most surprised by Tessa Blanchard being mentioned in the Tuesday night results. I usually skim Lucha blog once a week or so and I don't recall seeing her name since she returned to TNA so I don't know if this is her return or if I'm just a blind gringo.
