AEW Star Appears on WWE Smackdown Program

Deonna Purrazzo was the best TNA Women’s Champion of the past 10 years and possibly of all time.  She was seen as a huge score for AEW when they landed her back in 2022.  Since then, however, she has pretty much done nothing with the company, and it has left many baffled. We haven’t seen her in close to a year, until tonight and it was on WWE Programming.

As WWE went to commercial before their match with The Miz and Dragonuv, one of the ad spots was for Southern New Hampshire University featuring Purrazzo talking about her time attending the school.  Why they decided to show an AEW Superstar during a WWE event with heavy exposure is anyone’s guess.  But if you’re wondering is Purrazzo jumps ship to WWE at some point in 2026, this may be the first signal of that.
