Since making her debut Impact Wrestling after a failed stint in the WWE system in 2020, Deonna Purrazzo has gone from an enhancement act in NXT to being regarded as one of the best women's wrestlers alive. Competing in Impact alongside her real-life best friend Chelsea Green as the VXT Tag Team, The Virtuosa has held the Knockouts, ROH Women's, AAA Women's, and Knockouts Tag Team Championships.
While Purrazzo's career path remains uncertain, with her Impact Wrestling contract expiring at the end of 2022, Deonna Purrazzo remains one of the most fashionable stars in all of professional wrestling, while also still managing to be an extremely sound technical wrestler inside of the squared circle!
10 VXT in NXT
Being best friends outside of the ring while entering into the WWE System around the same time, Chelsea Green and Deonna Purrazzo would attempt to get an all-female stable off the ground in WWE's developmental system during their time with the company. Pitching the idea for what would one day become VXT, Purrazzo and Green wanted to dominate NXT alongside former NXT and Impact Wrestling star, Rachel Ellering.
Things would not go great for any of the throuple within WWE, with all three women being released over time. Green would have the most success out of the trio, though even then, it was not much. Still, fans can take a peak at Purrazzo and Green's matching gear that they had made during their time in NXT.
9 VXT in Impact Wrestling
While things might not have gone their way in WWE NXT, 2022 has seen VXT come to fruition, albeit without the third member, as Deonna Purrazzo and Chelsea Green would finally align within Impact Wrestling. Following Green's shocking, yet mostly expected heel turn against Mickie James, Chelsea and Deonna would come together as a new duo within the Knockouts Tag Team Division.
On their first tag-team outing in Impact, VXT would bring back the all-black matching gear, though it would look quite different from the original gear they had designed years prior in WWE NXT.
8 Wearing A Snakeskin Dress
Following Chelsea Green's major heel turn in Impact Wrestling, Deonna Purrazzo would come to her side shortly after, as the two have become the top heels in the Knockouts Division. In turn, the duo often now often matches their outfits, even when not wrestling!
Escorting Chelsea to the ring for a match following Slammiversary 2022, Deonna Purrazzo would bust out a snakeskin-style dress to match Chelsea's own white, snakeskin-style wrestling gear. It may be a small detail, but having a tag-team that matches even when both are not wrestling, goes a long way to sell them as a true, cohesive unit, which VXT is.
7 The Champ Champ
Kicking off 2022 with a bang, Deonna Purrazzo would capture both the AAA and ROH Women's Championships after a winner takes all match against Rok-C in Impact Wrestling, who is now known as Roxanne Perez in WWE NXT 2.0.
Following her second championship win of the year, Purrazzo would go from just being known as The Virtuosa, to officially dubbing herself The Champ Champ, hosting open challenges regularly on television where she would put both belts on the line. In this image, fans can see Purrazzo in a fancy-looking red and black attire that just looks befitting of a double champion.
6 Knockouts Knockdown Dress
During the Fall of 2021, Impact Wrestling would bring back their Knockouts Knockown event, an all-female show featuring a tournament and a proper showcase for the company's Knockouts, as well as free agents within the wrestling world. With Purrazzo as one of the top stars of the company at the time, she of course would feature, facing Masha Slamovich on the show, in a match that earned the latter a contract!
Prior to her match though, Deonna would appear sporting a very cool-looking black dress with a stylized top featuring a large KO lettering, standing for Knockouts, with Knockdown written underneath. While Deonna kicks all kinds of butt in-ring, she knows how to dress the part of being a top star as well, with this look solidifying that.
5 Making Her AEW Dynamite Debut
With Deonna Purrazzo holding the ROH Women's Championship, due to scheduling issues between ROH and Impact Wrestling during WrestleMania Weekend, the Champ would not be able to make the Supercard of Honor 2022 PPV, with Mercedes Martinez being crowned the Interim ROH Women's Champion.
Later in the year, Purrazzo would make a shocking arrival on AEW Dynamite, setting up a match against Mercedes Martinez to unify the Ring of Honor Women's Championship! While Deonna would fail to remain champion, she would bring out a black and gold variant of her normal ring gear for her AEW Dynamite debut, fitting in with the company's colors quite well in the process.
4 Bringing Out Her Inner Animal
Being a two-time Knockouts Champion in a matter of two years, while being booked quite strong across that same amount of time, Deonna Purrazzo has quickly shot up the ranks as one of the best Knockouts in Impact Wrestling history. With standout matches against the likes of Rosemary, Mickie James, Jordynne Grace, Thunder Rosa, and Masha Slamovich, the Virtuosa shows no signs of stopping.
Sporting an animal-print dress during an episode of Impact Wrestling while holding the top prize for the women in Impact, Deonna brought it all. Once again proving that not only can she deliver inside of the squared circle, Deonna Purrazzo would leave the Impact Faithful with their jaws dropped in this stunning outfit during her reign as Knockouts Champion.
3 All-White Gear For Slammiversary 2021
With four major PPVs a year, Impact Wrestling's Slammiversary takes the cake as the most historic for the company, with Bound For Glory coming in as a close second. At the 2021 edition of Slammiversary, Deonna Purrazzo would walk in as Knockouts Champion with her not knowing her oponent for the PPV. To the surpirse of many, it would be AEW's Thunder Rosa for an often forgotten Forbidden Door-style match!
The two women would have a very solid Knockouts Championship Match, with Deonna retaining her belt over La Mera Mera. For her outfit though, Purrazzo would sport a white and black version of her regular gear, sporting a crown as well to really add to the outfit.
2 In A Black Dress For Her Black Tie Affair
After winning the Knockouts Championship, Deonna Purrazzo would not only become a fan favorite for many in Impact Wrestling, despite being a heel, but would also be recognized as one of the best women's wrestlers working today. This was a far cry from barely being used within NXT, and so it only felt fitting that Purrazzo would get a proper celebration for her ascension to the top.
With her Great Gatsby-like graphics for her entrance video, Deonna would host a Black Tie Affair for her Knockouts Championship reign, sporting an extremely elegant black dress with the Knockouts Championship hoisted over her shoulder, for one of her most iconic looks.
1 Knockouts Tag Team Champion With Chelsea Green
With the rise of VXT in 2022, Deonna Purrazzo and Chelsea Green would finally get to work together on a major stage, with the duo taking over the Knockouts Tag Team Division with bouts against Rosemary & Taya Valkyrie and MIa Yim & Jordynne Grace. At the Emergence Impact Plus Special, Green and Purrazzo would challenge the former for the Knockouts Tag Team Championship.
As soon as VXT made their entrance on the show, it became clear as day that they were winning, just based off their faces in conjunction with all-new, matching tag-team wrestling gear. Sporting a firey gold and red gearset, Deonna and Chelsea would win the tag titles and would look incredible while doing so.
