"When I first started working for Ring of Honor, they were like, 'You need a moniker! You're name is great, but you need something else,'" Purrazzo said. "It was a process because I didn't just want to be 'The Technician' or 'The Mechanic' and it was like, how do I come up with something that was pretty, more feminine. So, I just Googled all sorts of translations for someone who excels at something, and Google searched all these things in Italian, and 'Virtuosa' was something that I found."
