Steph De Lander has had a blast working alongside “Indy God” Matt Cardona.
Former WWE Superstar Steph De Lander recently sat down with WrestleZone’s Managing Editor Bill Pritchard. When asked about Matt Cardona’s comments of her being his Chyna, Sherri, and Luna wrapped into one, De Lander believes it feels closest to Triple H and Chyna.
“I don’t know because it’s such a unique pairing, if that makes sense,” De Lander said. “I would say, like for me, it feels like closest to Triple H and Chyna. So I would say he’s like the Triple H just because I would probably feel closest to Chyna in the dynamic as well. But yeah, I don’t know.
“There’s no one that I can be like, ‘Oh, it’s this.’ We have such a different dynamic. He’s a wrestler, I’m a wrestler. I’m his manager. We also tag team together. There are so many different iterations of our pairing that it’s not just the standard wrestler and manager or male-female tag team.
The Little Intricacies
“A lot of male-female tag teams are married or dating or whatever, so it’s like we’re just platonic friends. We didn’t even know each other beforehand. There’s so many little intricacies of it and feels so unique that you can’t really compare it to anyone else.”
De Lander was asked about tagging together on the independent scene, and if their work together has resulted in promoters requesting more mixed tag match bookings. De Lander said they’ve done it a few times, but she’s typically managing him because they both have their own matches on the show.
“We’ve done a couple, but it is more Matt is usually in the main event, I’m managing him, and I’ll have a match on the show as well,” Steph De Lander said. “So it’s more us having singles matches and me managing him rather than us doing mixed tags. But I would say that’s because, for the most part, in most shows, Matt is in the main event fighting for their main title, so I think that’s why it’s that way.”
