In a recent interview with Dexerto, AEW wrestler Deonna Purrazzo discussed AEW potentially introducing women’s tag team titles. She said,
“I think Women’s Tag Titles are tricky. I think women easily fall into this category of ‘we’ll just put Deonna and so and so together, you guys be a team.’ If AEW was to introduce Women’s Tag Titles, it would be an amazing opportunity for us women, but I’d want to see a larger story being told. Let’s give women the opportunity to tell stories, make the audience understand why these two people work together.”
She continued, “Recently, we saw Willow Nightingale and Kris Statlander working together, at least before the world’s biggest haters turned on the former TBS champ. In an example like that, we understood their chemistry. We understand why they were friends, the reason they had each other’s back. If we’re going to have Tag Titles, we need multiple tag teams that have that same chemistry. So it’s not something I’m shooting down completely, I just think that type of division needs a lot of investment, a lot of storytelling to get there.”
