The Virtuosa adds yet more gold to her wardrobe.
Deonna Purrazzo, fresh off of a Texas Death Match with Mickie James, is now the champion of Ring of Honor.
Yes, even though the promotion is on a hiatus for the time being, Deonna and Rok-C had agreed to the championship match at the end of ROH Final Battle 2021 and that match took place on the January 13 episode of IMPACT Wrestling.
In a competitive match, Purrazzo was able to defeat The Prodigy and add yet another piece of gold to her collection. Unfortunately, after the match, the attention returned to the invading Ring of Honor Stars that ended the show in pure chaos once again.
Here’s how it all went down:
Ian Riccaboni joins Tom on commentary and so does Rehwoldt. The two have a chess match of grappling before we head to a commercial. Rok-C hits the Rok knees when we return, but it’s not long before Deonna dumps Rok to the outside. Rok-C just answers the ten count. Deonna attacks Rok-C in the corner and works the arm. Deonna steps on Rok’s arm further. Deonna covers for a two count. Deonna very much focuses on the arm. Rok nails a Code Rok, but Deonna kicks out at two. Rok soon gets the Rok Lock on after escaping submission attempts of Purrazzo. Suddenly Rok turns it aroundinto her Fujiwa Armbar. Brian Hebner is about to call for the bell but Rok-C stops him. Deonna does not relent and Rok-C is trapped. The bell sounds and we have a new ROH Women’s Champion.
WINNER and NEW ROH Women’s World Champion: Deonna Purrazzo
Post-match Maria Kanellis comes out. Out comes the five ROH renegades. Matthew Rehwoldt leaves commentary to protect Deonna. Rich Swann and Willie Mack come out to save them, but the numbers game is too much. They get laid out. The five ROH renegades stand tall to end the show as they get booed.
