Deonna Purrazzo Discusses Chelsea Green’s WWE Comeback And Her Success With Her Current Character
Chelsea Green’s return to WWE is discussed by Deonna Purrazzo.
Chelsea Green and Deonna Purrazzo are close friends. They even shared the IMPACT Wrestling Knockouts Tag Team Championship for a while. Chelsea made her comeback to WWE during the Royal Rumble this year, and ever since, she has been on a number of the regular television shows.
Purrazzo discussed Chelsea’s return to WWE during a recent interview on Busted Open Radio, adding that she thinks it was a better match for her because Chelsea is a natural entertainer.
“I think that for me, I’m a wrestler. I’m not necessarily an entertainer, and IMPACT Wrestling has given me the opportunity to show the world what I do best, and that’s wrestle and give me the space to be myself authentically and make mistakes and learn character but wrestle because that’s what I do best,” said The Virtuosa. “When Chelsea got released, it was really hard for her because WWE was the job she wanted from the day she got into wrestling, and she kind of did what she had to do to work her way back, and look at her now.

“I said it time and time again, there’s no one I want more success for than Chelsea Green. If it can’t be me, I want it to be her and to see her week after week be her real self,” Purrazzo continued. “The theatrics on her face and the silly comment she made [on the July 10 WWE Raw] about, ‘Three strikes, you’re out, basketball,’ that’s Chelsea. That’s exactly who she wanted to be, and I’m so glad that her path took her back to WWE and gave her that character.”
