Deonna Purrazzo doesn't stay without a major title for long.
Deonna Purrazzo is synonymous with the IMPACT Knockouts Championship but after losing to Mickie James in a Texas Death Match at Hard to Kill 2022. She was forced to turn her attention to other matters. Deonna had a pre-existing agreement with Rok-C of Ring of Honor to challenge her for her Women's Championship.
That match took place during the tapings on January 9, 2022, and Deonna was quick to add another Accolade to her resume as she became the new Ring of Honor Women's Champion. Only the second name to hold that title in history, Ring of Honor, hiatus or not, is living in the Age of The Virtuosa.

Maria Kanellis, who was in the ring with Purrazzo after her victory, had previously stated that she would have no problem putting Rok-C up against her. You can read Maria's comments from several months ago here.
