Steph De Lander Names Her Favorite Memory From WWE Run

Steph De Lander recently looked back at her time in WWE as Persia Pirotta and named her favorite memory from that time. The TNA alumna was with WWE from 2019 through April of 2022, and appeared on NXT as Pirotta, allying with real-life friend Indi Hartwell on TV. She was released as part of an NXT round of roster cuts.

De Lander appeared on Scott’s Scoop for a new interview and was asked about her favorite part of her time on NXT. She named her match at NXT Halloween Havoc 2021 where where she and Hartwell teamed up against the teams of Zoey Stark & Io Shirai and Gigi Dolan & Jacy Jayne in a Scareway to Hell match for the NXT Women’s Tag Team Championships.

“I would say my ladder match, the ladder match at Halloween Havoc, was probably one of my favorite moments,” De Lander said (per WrestlingInc). “It was a really cool moment and I mean, it’s one of those things you don’t really think about like, a lot of wrestlers go their entire careers without getting to do a ladder match. Especially on Halloween Havoc.”

She continued, “That was a really cool bucket list moment that I wasn’t expecting. That was like my third match on TV. That was pretty cool, I would say that was probably my favorite moment from my NXT time.”

The match saw Toxic Attraction pick up the win to win the titles at the special themed episode of the Tuesday night show.
