Deonna Purrazzo & Steve Maclin Discuss Hardest They’ve Been Hit In Wrestling
Deonna Purrazzo reveals who has hit her the hardest inside of a wrestling ring, and Steve Maclin reveals who is the hardest person to hit inside of a wrestling ring.
In almost every wrestling promotion in the world, there always seems to be a guy or girl that has a reputation for laying it in inside the squared circle. For example, guys like Eddie Kingston and Bryan Danielson have a reputation like that in All Elite Wrestling, while competitors like Sheamus and Gunther have that reputation in WWE.
In a new interview with Fightful, Deonna Purrazzo first revealed who has hit her the hardest in between the ropes.
“Jordynne Grace.” Deonna Purrazzo noted. “After our 30 minute Knockouts Iron Man match, just the whole time. Jordynne Grace doesn’t know her own strength. She’s so athletic. She can move so fast. She’s a powerhouse and I think doesn’t know it sometimes and gets a little carried away. But I know that when I get in there with Grace, I have to bring that same intensity and let’s me rise up a little bit. After that Iron Man match, Steve was at the hotel. We didn’t expect to have a 30 minute match. We expected to have a ten minute No DQ is what we went into tapings expecting. Then the night before they were like, ‘Just kidding.’ Which is awesome, in hindsight, because we made history. I’m the first and the only Knockouts Iron Man, right? But holy f*ck did it hurt. I don’t know what she got me with, probably everything, I’m driving and the red light by the hotel would not turn green fast enough for me that day. I just wanted to get back to Steve and I was hysterical crying in the car. I’m so beat up and I’ve never been through that in my life. So Jordynne Grace, 30 minute Knockouts Iron Man match.”
Steve Maclin went on to name IMPACT star Black Taurus as the person who is the hardest to hit, as he compared him to a brick wall.
“Recently, it’s actually opposite. It was a multi-man match on TV for the number one contendership to the X-Division title and Black Taurus. I was doing the movement. I’m doing the dive through the ropes and he’s a thick guy. Love him to death, very talented. It was like hitting a brick wall. Normally when you hit somebody, there’s a little give and you go to the ground together. It was hitting a brick wall. So recently, that’s probably the hardest. I hit him and I was hurt more, if that makes any sense. It was a fun match. At least he caught me. Most people don’t catch people now.”
