While speaking on The Rhode Show prior to AEW's Collision taping on Thursday, Deonna was asked about the feeling of stepping through the curtain, and if it was exhilarating.

"It is. For me, all I've ever wanted to be was a wrestler since I was nine years old. So the minute I get to step through that curtain, feel that energy from the fans. It's like the best feeling in the world. It's all of my dreams coming true."

Deonna was then asked about the phrase of feeding off the energy of fans, noting it is a boost to be give that reception from fans.

"Yeah, absolutely. When you're feeling beat up or you feel like you can't go any longer, and you just need that one little extra boost to listen to those fans cheer you up, or sometimes boo you, gives you all that energy you need to keep moving forward to finish the match and hopefully get the victory."

Purrazzo is currently in the midst of building a faction on AEW television, with Taya Valkyrie being the first addition.
