Deonna Purrazzo and Steve Maclin Talk About The Hardest Wrestling Hits They’ve Ever Taken
Deonna Purrazzo reveals who was hitting her the hardest in a wrestling ring, and Steve Maclin reveals who has been hit the hardest in a wrestling ring.
There always appears to be a guy or gal with a reputation for laying it on inside the squared circle in practically every wrestling company in the world. For example, Eddie Kingston and Bryan Danielson share that reputation in All Elite Wrestling, whilst Sheamus and Gunther have similar reputation in WWE.
Deonna Purrazzo revealed who hit her the hardest in between the ropes in a new interview with Fightful.
“Jordynne Grace.”

“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 say that IMPACT star Black Taurus is the hardest to strike, comparing him to a brick barrier.
“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.”
