Deonna Purrazzo’s first defense of her ROH Women’s Pure Championship has been confirmed, with a match scheduled against Trish Adora, representing The Infantry and Shane Taylor Promotions. This title bout was recorded during AEW’s live edition of Collision on Saturday in Oceanside, California, and will be broadcast on Honor Club.
Background of the Challenge and Match Announcement
Purrazzo initially issued an open challenge for her title on the January 22 episode of ROH on Honor Club. About a month later, Ring of Honor’s social media confirmed that Trish Adora accepted this challenge, setting the stage for their confrontation. ROH’s announcement included the statement:
“The open challenge was issued and accepted! The #ROH Women’s Pure Champion @DeonnaPurrazzo takes on @TrishAdora202 of STP!”

Purrazzo’s Reflections on Championship Defenses
Prior to this match announcement, Purrazzo expressed frustration about the few title defenses she has had since capturing the belt at ROH Final Battle on December 5. In an interview with BCP+, she described her inactive title reign as “really defeating,” sharing her disappointment about not defending the championship more frequently. She said,
“I think I’m a little disappointed to not have defended my championship yet. I am constantly trying to rack my brain of like what else can I do and what more can I do and how much more of myself can I give? And for that not to be reciprocated in any environment, not just in Ring of Honor, is really defeating for me.”

Upcoming ROH Events and TV Tapings
Looking ahead, Ring of Honor has announced standalone television tapings scheduled for the afternoon of Sunday, March 1, in Jacksonville, Florida. These will mark ROH’s first standalone tapings in two years, signaling a renewed push for the promotion’s programming and presence.
Significance of the Title Match and Future Outlook
This upcoming defense against Trish Adora marks a significant moment for Purrazzo to revitalize her reign as ROH Women’s Pure Champion after a period of limited activity. The match, set to air on Honor Club, not only highlights Purrazzo’s commitment to defending her title but also represents Ring of Honor’s efforts to strengthen its women’s division amid a busy year of wrestling events. Fans will be watching closely to see if Purrazzo can overcome Adora and continue as champion as ROH advances its programming into new tapings and expanded exposure.
