The controversy surrounding the new Impact World Champion Tessa Blanchard doesn't seem to be ending anytime soon. Prior to her history-making contest against Sami Callihan at Impact Wrestling "Hard To Kill", Blanchard had posted a tweet urging women to support one another. The tweet didn't sit well with several female wrestlers, who accused Blanchard of being a racist and a bully. NWA Women's World Champion Allysin Kay had posted a tweet accusing Blanchard of spitting in a female wrestler's face and being racist towards her.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
