Deonna Purrazzo’s next challenger is Mickie James.
Dating back to IMPACT Wrestling’s Slammiversary event where Mickie James first returned to IMPACT, she and the current Knockouts Champion Deonna Purrazzo have been at odds. The two talents will meet at Bound For Glory on October 23rd for the Knockouts Championship and that bout was made official after their brawl on the 9/23 IMPACT on AXS.
After James’ return match at NWA 73rd Anniversary, she was ambushed by Purrazzo who had successfully defended her Knockouts Title the night prior against Melina at EmPowerrr.
