AEW has been giving more focus to its womens division over the past year and thats why many fans have been clamoring for AEW to introduce Womens Tag Team Titles. While the idea seems exciting for many, Deonna Purrazzo has now explained why she isnt fully behind AEW introducing Womens Tag Team Titles.
While speaking on theLightweights podcast, Deonna Purrazzo was asked whether AEW should introduce Womens Tag Team Titles. She said shes not sure and changes her mind often. She admitted she doesnt really love womens tag team wrestling because its not something she fully understands, and she thinks a lot of women wrestlers arent trained to have great tag team matches.
Purrazzo said tag team wrestling works best when theres real chemistry between the partners. That only happens when two people have a real relationship and time to build a connection. She used her team with Chelsea Green as an example. They are best friends in real life since they travel together, train together, and spend holidays together. Fans saw photos and videos that showed their bond, which helped people believe in their team.
Purrazzo said that often in womens wrestling, tag teams are just thrown together. Two random women get put in a match with no story or reason for teaming up, and that makes it hard for fans to care. She feels women dont get enough time to tell stories or build those relationships, which is why she sometimes thinks AEW shouldnt add a womens tag title.
However, Purrazzo also sees the other side. A womens tag team division could give more women in AEW chances to shine, especially those not going for the main championship. She mentioned past teams like Willow Nightingale and Kris Statlander, or Skye Blue and Julia Hart, where fans could understand why they were teaming up.
In the end, Deonna Purrazzo said AEW should only introduce a womens tag team championship if theyre going to give women the time to build strong and meaningful tag teams.
Tony Khan has already made it clear that he is interested in introducing Womens Tag Team Titles in AEW somewhere down the line. Therefore, it remains to be seen whether the company will see Womens Tag Team Titles being introduced in the future, as it could definitely shake things up in the womens division.
