Over the weekend, AEW star Deonna Purrazzo had a match against Jonathan Gresham at a Game Changer Wrestling event. A video of Deonna’s entrance went viral as some fans commented on her physical appearance.

In posts via Twitter/X, AEW’s Willow Nightingale in regards to the body shaming directed at Deonna…

“You know who was the main character of my feed yesterday? Deonna. So I sought out her match vs. Gresham and it was a fun watch! When they were moving, they were moving and it was silky smooth. It told a good story, technically sound, and made me smile many more times than once.”

“All of this is to say I know just as well as anyone in this business (probably better tbh) that people are gonna say what they want about your body and sure, I guess they’re entitled to that?? BUT why in the blue hell is that the prevailing conversation when a professional is still going out there and successfully doing their job? I’m not naive. Some people’s lack of humanity doesn’t surprise me. I guess I’m just still hopeful we could collectively try to be better to one another?”
