Bayley reached out to Deonna Purazzo after WWE release

Impact Knockouts Champion, Deonna Purazzo, recently sat down for an interview with Alex McCarthy of TalkSport.com. In an excerpt from the interview, Deonna revealed if there was anyone from the pro wrestling world who has reached out to her, or sent any encouraging message in her career so far.

She revealed, “A couple people had reached out to me and Bayley was one of them. Just saying like, ‘you’re gonna be fine. Don’t worry about it. I know, the match was what it was,’ but like, you know, just it was very encouraging and positive words of encouragement for me to keep going and not to stress about what just happened.”

It’s safe to say that these actions prove why Bayley calls herself the ‘Role Model.’ This is not the first time she has reached out to somebody. She recently reached out to Britt Baker after her terrific match against Thunder Rosa on AEW Dynamite. Plus, she has always been a very vocal supporter of Liv Morgan and recently released superstar, Peyton Royce.

Bayley is a true team player. Her actions outside the ring speak volumes about the kind of person she is. In fact, she didn’t even leave the chance to praise Deonna even while replying to the excerpt on Twitter.
