Deonna Purrazzo Looks Back On Her WWE Release, How She’s Learned A Lot In That Time


Deonna Purrazzo looks back on her WWE release.

The Virtousa was cut from the WWE roster back in 2020, which led to her going to TNA (Impact) and becoming a three-time Knockouts Champion. Purrazzo spoke about this time during a recent interview on the Wrestling Is Life Is Wrestling program.

So when I got the phone call that I was released (from WWE), it was like, ‘What 203 number is calling me? I’m getting fired right now.’ But also, it was a great conversation with Canyon Ceman at the time because he was like, ‘I think this is what you want and you’re gonna end up really happy’ and I was like, ‘I think so too, so thank you.’ As negative as it was, it kind of ended — at least with Canyon who I had worked with for like seven years up until that point on and off. It ended up really positive and I think, yeah, I wouldn’t be me today and I wouldn’t be able to look back and be like, ‘I was part of the problem too.’ 25-year-old Deonna thought, ‘It’s them! It was them! It was them!’ And now, five years removed, I can be like, I had a lot to do with that (she laughed), and now I work to form better relationships and to act better and to be more professional and to bite my tongue a little bit more and I learned a lot from those worse times of my life.

Purrazzo is set to hit the free agency market in 2024. You can read about that here.
