Deonna Purrazzo achieved a milestone ahead of Slammiversary
Deonna Purrazzo never got recognition as a WWE talent during her tenure on NXT. After getting released from the contract in 2020, she quickly rose to prominence in the Impact female division. As the reigning Knockouts Champion, she’s enjoying her third reign. Plus, she has now crossed 500 cumulative days as the Impact Knockouts Champion.
Back in April of this year, Deonna Purrazzo started her third reign as the Impact Knockouts World Champion with a victory over Jordynne Grace at the Rebellion pay-per-view. The Virtuosa has climbed to the second spot in the list of combined reigns for Knockouts World Champions, surpassing Mickie James. Only Gail Kim is ahead of her in terms of cumulative days under different reigns.
