Deonna Purrazzo had a “bad” time during her tenure working on the WWE NXT brand.

Speaking on a recent edition of the “Talk Is Jericho” podcast, The Virtuosa commented on her time working on the gold brand from early 2018 to April of 2020 and eventually requesting her release from the company.

You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:

On her time in NXT: “It was bad. I had so much experience working with WWE in an extra role, … I had been on ‘Raw’ and ‘SmackDown’ actually wrestling, [and] I had then been on ‘NXT’ TV a ton. I just felt like, not that I earned more when I got there than I was given, but there was a respect level that I thought would carry over now that I got the job, I think. I found out real quick that it didn’t matter that I had done all those things.”

On not getting any feedback on how to improve: “Finally, I just [reached] a breaking point. [I was] like, ‘This isn’t working for anybody. It’s sure as hell not working for me, so either you’re going to tell me what I’m doing wrong and I can fix it, so I can be on TV, because I came here to be a TV star, or I’m not going to be a TV star and you should just let me go.’”

On becoming someone she wasn’t due to the frustration: “I remember sitting in someone’s office in a screaming fight. That’s not who I am. Deonna Purrazzo — the professional — doesn’t do that, but now I’m like [New] Jersey Deonna, angry at home, and you don’t want to bring that to work.”
