After months of tension, IMPACT Wrestling has booked the dream match between Mickie James and Deonna Purrazzo for Bound for Glory 2021.
For several months, Deonna Purrazzo has been getting under the skin of Mickie James. James, a wrestling legend in her own right, wanted Deonna as part of NWA EmPowerrr and she would get that as Deonna defeated Melina at the event in late August to retain her Knockouts Championship.
Still, tensions continued to escalate between these two women, and on the September 23 episode of IMPACT Wrestling, it was finally announced that they would face off at the biggest IMPACT Wrestling pay-per-view of the year when they got into a pull-a-part brawl with one another following a challenge by Mickie James for the Knockouts Championship.
