NWA Women's Champion Allysin Kay responded:
Remember when you spat in a black woman’s face and called her the N-word in Japan? Was that you “supporting women“? The AUDACITY of this tweet https://t.co/P49uNWsqIH

Blanchard responded:
not true. That’s my statement and the most attention I’ll give it because of how actually ridiculous it is.

You’ve consistently put down, bullied, and belittled countless female coworkers, including me. Is that support? https://t.co/MrOOksiijk

La Rosa Negra, who has worked all over the independent scene, Japan and Puerto Rico, stated she was the woman in question in the Japan incident, but later deleted the Tweet.
Isla Dawn from NXT UK responded:
As someone who experienced your bullying firsthand, received regular verbal abuse, was spat on, had rumours spread about me, dealt with multiple attempts by you to blacklist me from other companies, (plus more), I just pray you now follow your own advice. https://t.co/MWtmUKLOyf

MLW's Priscilla Kelly responded as well:
Remember publicly putting me down on twitter last year for something that didn’t involve you whatsoever, then continuing to drag my name to other people for it?

Pepperidge Farm Remembers.
You should probably delete this tweet. https://t.co/MnsHVnwavU
