In a recent interview with The Universal Wrestling Podcast, IMPACT Wrestling star and former AAA Reina de Reinas Champion and ROH Women’s World Champion Deonna Purrazzo discussed main eventing last week’s episode of AEW Dynamite where she faced off against Mercedes Martinez to determine the Unified ROH Women’s World Champion.

“It was like the lead up to it all day, we didn’t know what the card looked like, or where we were going to be and it’s funny because Mercedes and I were like, we might be the main event, we’re the biggest thing on the advertisement, but gosh, I don’t want to be in that spot, that’s a lot of pressure.

Then, at like 5 o’clock they’re like, you guys are the main event, a lot of pressure. IMPACT does our live pay-per-views, there’s like four every year, then we do these app specials that are live, but I don’t necessarily do live TV every week like people on AEW are.

It was even more pressure for me to be like, can I still do this, I hadn’t done live TV since NXT, so that’s two years and I was like oh gosh, we have a commercial break and we have picture-in-picture, there’s so many faucets to this that we have to get right, because we’re the main event, but I think it turned out really really great, I think that I got to put my best foot forward and IMPACT’s best foot forward, it’s just a really exciting time right now.”
