A former female WWE star was given a live rose on WWE TV. She reacted to it later on social media.
Steph De Lander first signed with the WWE in 2021 under the ring name Persia Pirotta and was part of Indi Hartwell's wedding to Dexter Lumis. That year, she even competed at NXT: Halloween Havoc against Toxic Attraction, IYO SKY, and Zoey Stark. After a short stint in the Stamford-based promotion, she was released in 2022.
Following her release, she debuted in TNA Wrestling under the ring name Steph De Lander. She was immediately put into matches against some of the top female stars, like Jordynne Grace. In the process, she aligned herself with Matt Cardona.
Recently, on TNA Wrestling, Steph De Lander was set to compete in a 16-person mixed tag team against Alisha Edwards, Eddie Edwards, Jordynne Grace, Laredo Kid, Masha Slamovich, and Moose. However, before the match could begin, PCO made a surprise appearance. He slowly walked down to the ring with a mysterious bag.
When PCO entered the ring, De Lander's teammates were perplexed about what was inside the bag. He approached De Lander, pulled a black rose out of the bag, and handed it to the former NXT star. She looked confused and was trying to process what was happening.

The incident involving PCO also seemed to have caught De Lander off guard. She was trying to figure out what it meant and enlisted the help of her fanbase.
Following the match on TNA, De Lander posted on social media to ask her fans what a black rose signifies.
"Does anyone know what a black rose means? @ThisIsTNA @PCOisNotHuman," she wondered.
It remains to be seen if this will lead to a romantic angle involving PCO and Steph De Lander.
