Steph De Lander says that her husband Mance Warner has been supportive of her decision to quit TNA and made his own decision to leave as well. As noted, De Lander and Warner quit TNA due to the company refusing to let her return to the ring. De Lander has stated she was cleared by a WWE surgeon.

De Lander spoke with Fightful about the matter and noted that she didn’t ask her husband to quit TNA. She said that Warner supports her “110%” and made the decision on his own.

“Mance has been very supportive this whole situation and he has just been by my side,” De Lander told Sean Ross Sapp. “And he’s like, ‘Look, it’s your story to tell.’ He supports me 110%. I didn’t ask him to leave. Like, if he wanted to stay at TNA, I would have understood and I would have been happy for him to have his journey and I’ll have mine, and I’m sure we’ll work together again at some point.”

She continued, “But he made his own decision. I think just from seeing how that situation was handled, I think he was, at that point, ready to leave as well.”

The couple made their return to GCW on Saturday night.
