Former WWE Superstar Deonna Purrazzo Is Definitely Interested In Joining ALL ELITE WRESTLING

For reasons which aren't entirely clear, WWE never really did much with Deonna Purrazzo beyond using her as a jobber. She's clearly talented and has a fair bit of in-ring experience, and since being released by WWE, she hasn't shied away from making her feelings known when it comes to being disappointed by the way the company made use of her. 

During a recent interview with Chris Van Vliet, Purrazzo reflected on her WWE departure and expressed an interest in heading to All Elite Wrestling in the not too distant future should the opportunity end up presenting itself. 

"I mean like, some people had reached out, but it was all kind of like fleeting. There was no like, 'You’re gonna have a meeting' or, 'We’re gonna sit down and do this.' Luckily, I had been to IMPACT before, I know the people there and it was right away like, 'We’d like to have you, let’s talk about it when we can.' It was just more of a secure thing," she explained.

"I want to get back to the wrestler I was before NXT, and I want to find myself again and find happiness and all of the things that as a performer I lacked when I was competing in NXT. I want to do that before I go somewhere that’s as mainstream as AEW that has the critics of AEW. I don’t want to go there and be exploring myself and kind of fall into the same role that I fell in in NXT. And luckily IMPACT is a place that understands who I am, is totally on board with what they think I can do and are willing to give me the time to the character development that I need."

"So I think all things considering, it just really worked out well there," Purrazzo added. "But who knows, you know? I would love to go to AEW. There’s so many girls that I haven’t gotten to work with, friends that are there and I love what they’re doing with their women’s division. It was just like a timing thing and I think what I need more as a person and a wrestler right now."

There's a lot of uncertainty in the wrestling world right now, but it would be great to see Purrazzo land on her feet with a company like AEW down the line. As always, we'll keep you guys updated if and when we hear more.
