Former WWE star Deonna Purrazzo wants to change women's wrestling for the better
AEW star Deonna Purrazzo recently disclosed that changing women's wrestling for the better is her "life's work."
In an exclusive interview with Sportskeeda Wrestling's Kevin Kellam earlier this year, former WWE Superstar Deonna Purrazzo stated that she has wanted to change women's wrestling since she was a child. The Virtuosa added that she tries to get better every time she steps inside the squared circle and will always stay true to herself.
"It's the position I have wanted since I was nine years old when I said I want to be a wrestler and I'm going to change women's wrestling. So there is that pressure from that nine-year-old inside of me that is like, 'live up to everything you've spent your life doing.' This is literally my life's work happening before my eyes. Every time I go out there, I want to look a little bit better. I want to push the envelope in terms of what I wear to the ring. I also want to stay true to myself and who I feel the Virtuosa is," said Purrazzo. [From 5:30 to 5:58]
