On a recent episode of the “Insight” podcast, AEW’s Deonna Purrazzo discussed her 2015 encounter in the WWE ring with the current Women’s Champion, Nia Jax. This match was a notable turning point in Purrazzo’s career, marking her WWE debut. It was also among the first televised matches featuring Jax.
Deonna Purrazzo shed light on her experience wrestling with Nia Jax on the podcast: “I have a fondness for Nia, who has consistently been very supportive of her competitors,” she recalled. “Her match with me was one of her first in NXT. I distinctly remember feeling intimidated, thinking, ‘This might not go smoothly as we’re both newcomers’. Sarah Amato and Triple H were both present, providing their input, and Nia was open to learning. She gave me a few pointers, more than what I needed at that moment.”
Purrazzo also praised Nia Jax’s journey in WWE and expressed gratitude for being part of it: “Nia is an incredible individual, and sharing those moments with her was thrilling,” Purrazzo said. “It’s always intriguing to witness a co-worker’s growth, and I feel honored to have been involved.”
