Deonna Purrazzo vs. Toni Storm

[6.0] "The match did what it intended to do, establishing Toni Storm's new/old persona. Taya Valkyrie did a good job being at ring side of Purrazzo, attacking Storm hear and there, getting heat from the crowd. The match itself was pretty solid. [**1/2]"

[5.0] "Okay enough match, though I felt it was pretty lackluster all things considered. I wish Deonna Purrazzo was given something more to do on a regular basis so I could get into her matches more easily."

[5.0] "This was a really standard television match that had no drama or juice to get invested in. Valkyria as an outside interference doesn't do anything for the crowd or the match. The action is unspectacular throughout and the amnesia gimmick is a band-aid for Storm's character that is quickly becoming lost. **1/2"

[6.0] "Compared to their PPV match in 2024, This one was actually decent. I really love Toni's character work and the work she's been doing with this new gimmick as a whole. Deonna unfortunately is very cold, I mean very cold. At one point she seemed destined to become one of AEW's biggest up and coming Women's stars but they've dropped the ball on her which sucks. [***]"

[6.0] "Another solid match on the show. I definitely enjoyed this better than their last match back at Revolution 2024 for the Women's World Title. Maybe that's because Storm doesn't have the "Timeless" character anymore, I don't know. Anyways, fun stuff here."

[7.0] "This was better than their PPV match but Deonna is really cold, that's what happens when you stick talent to a dying show for months. Toni has some excellent skits that are for some reason internet exclusive and not being shown on tv which is completely baffling as those would easily build her character far better than these matches. Still a decent match."

[7.0] "Solid match. Very competitive. Solid work by both competitors. Solid technical work by both women. The amnesia has not affected Storm's in-ring work."

[6.0] "A good match with nothing really notable coming out of it. There was nothing bad but it was just a plain match. 6/10."

[6.0] "This wasn't anything crazy but for the time it had, I thought it was good. Toni's character work has been off the charts and that kind of energy pairs great with someone serious like Deonna."

[6.0] "This was another pretty good match between two of the better women on this roster. This was enjoyable"

[6.0] "Not the best Storm and Purrazzo have done with each other, although this was their "first meeting" in Storm's current rookie angle. The show had hit a lull following the opener, Toni did well to get the Charlotte fans back in it."

[4.0] "Pretty sure Purrazzo is just gaining weight and graduate degrees from AEW and stealing TK's money. Her output has been terrible since she signed compared to her TNA work and this is just another piece in the evidence file. The Vendetta is a flop and Toni amnesia is losing it's cutesy luster."

[5.0] "An average match between deonna purrazzo and toni storm slightly better than the revolution match but not by much"
