Deonna Purrazzo remains the ROH Pure Women’s Champion, submitting Steph De Lander at ROH Death Before Dishonor 2026. Purrazzo battled De Lander at Friday’s PPV in a Pure Rules match with her championship on the line.
Due to the heated nature between the two, Purrazzo waved off the Code Of Honor for the match. The two went back and forth for nearly nine minutes before Purrazzo picked up the victory by making De Lander tap out to the Venus De Milo.
You can see the clips from the ROH Death Before Dishonor match below. Purrazzo is the inaugural ROH Women’s Pure Champion, with her title reign now standing at 260 days. She won the title in the finals of a tournament at ROH Final Battle in December 2025, defeating Billie Starkz in the finals.
