Deonna Purrazzo & Steve Maclin: The Ones Who Took a Shot in the Ring (and at Each Other)
Manage episode 502879508 series 3655284
From chicken cutlet dinners to the chaos of shock-collar trivia, Deonna Purrazzo and Steve Maclin are the wrestling world’s favorite power couple, and this episode proves exactly why. Saraya sits down with the AEW star and the former Marine-turned-TNA champion to unpack their unlikely love story, the unfiltered reality of being in a relationship across rival promotions, and how they’ve built a life around mutual respect, relentless ambition, and a whole lot of teasing.
They talk about Deonna’s early start in indie wrestling (and a pea coat Steve threw out thinking he’d never see her again), the surprise South Carolina proposal that had parkgoers cheering, and the emotional highs and lows of navigating public scrutiny, especially for women in wrestling. From internet trolls criticizing body image to producing your own character vignettes when no one else will, Deonna opens up about what it really takes to stay empowered in the ring and behind the scenes. And yes, Steve gets deep about his time in the Marines, how wrestling saved him post-service, and why Deonna is the rock that keeps him in line.
Oh, and yes… there’s a couple’s trivia game, a live shock collar challenge, and somehow Steve volunteers for a full-power jolt. Maniac.
This one’s romantic, hilarious, and full of heart. Rulebreakers to the core.
