AEW star Deonna Purrazzo appeared on Insight With Chris Van Vliet, where she talked about a number of topics including how her goal in the company is to win the Women’s World Championship.
Purrazzo said, “I gotta win the AEW Women’s World Championship [laughs]. I think a championship at AEW. I think going there and just knowing the type of environment it is and the complete new set of girls I’ve never worked with, I knew it was going to become a challenge to, I don’t want to say conform, but relearn a system. I had been comfortable at TNA for so long. I knew the system, I knew the people, I knew the position I was in. I was on top there. So there was most leeway for me to give my opinion or pitch ideas. Coming into AEW, you kind of need to earn those rights all over again. So I think there’s still so left for me to do. I feel like I’m just now feeling like myself again there, feeling like ‘The Virtuosa’. I’ve been there nine-and-half months now. That first stretch, it was like, I don’t know what I’m doing or who I am. I’m working a brand-new system with television and times. I felt really thrown off. So I feel like now I’m finally getting in a groove that will propel me.”
