For the past few months, AEW has been building up its women's division more and more as plea after plea rolled in for a change as many fans were fed up with the way the division was being booked. It's gotten noticeably better as the arrival of Mercedes Moné looms overhead. Aside from the heavy implications that Moné will debut in AEW at the TD Garden on March 13, AEW has moved several pieces in the last few months to really get the women's division back on track, including the signing of Deonna Purrazzo. Purrazzo began 2024 as a free agent after letting her contract with IMPACT/TNA expire and opting not to sign a new one and would quickly get scooped up by AEW.
