"I don’t think we’ve formally met yet. You’ve seen what I can do inside the squared circle. But do you know what it means to be ‘The Virtuosa’? Do you? Wrestling isn’t just a sport or an art form. It’s both, and more set to a quickening pace and a staccato beat of bodies slamming into pine, bones cracking, tendons tearing. All building towards a beautiful and violent crescendo. I like what this place has forced me to become. Because here, actions have consequences. I’m going to burn this empire down from the inside out to recreate in my own image. The Age of the Virtuosa," Purrazzo said.

Purrazzo previously defeated former AEW Women's World Champion Thunder Rosa at AEW Double or Nothing. She later beat Rosa in a No Disqualification match on the June 15 episode of AEW Collision.
