Steve Maclin & Deonna Purrazzo are husband and wife.
Maclin is the IMPACT World Champion, and his wife Deonna is the IMPACT Knockouts World Champion.
Maclin is one of the most hated men in the company right now, while Deonna has become one of the most beloved women.
“If it made sense,” Maclin told Jeremy Lambert & Joel Pearl on In The Weeds when asked about potentially working with Purrazzo on-screen. “That’s usually how both of us work and that’s how I like to do business in the world of pro wrestling. If it makes sense, that’s the only way to do it. Why are we doing things, why am I do this? That’s always the question I have towards creative. That would have to be one of those things where, okay, where in this perfect world, where he don’t exist in IMPACT Wrestling, how do we come about and where does that world collide with both of us from where we are in the real world as a married couple to in IMPACT Wrestling.”

Maclin won the IMPACT World Title at Rebellion when he defeated Kushida. He is set to take on PCO at IMPACT’s next LIVE event, Under Siege, on 5/26.
At the same event, Deonna will be defending her IMPACT Knockouts Title against Jordynne Grace, whom she defeated at Rebellion to become a 3x Knockouts Champion. The match is stipulated where if Grace loses, she can’t challenge for the Knockouts Title as long as Deonna is the champion.
Deonna Purrazzo also commented on possibly working with Maclin. Read those comments here.
