Steph De Lander responded to a statement put out by CCW regarding allegations of “mismanaged” money and not paying talent. De Lander states she witnessed and experienced:
- Almost every female talent guilted into working for a lower rate than usual
- Posters & trading cards created and sold using talents name & likeness without them knowing & not seeing a cent of the profit
- After my first show there was no hotel room for me so I got dropped at the airport at 3am for my 7am flight
- $100 missing from my pay envelope
- 3 women (myself & two impact talent incl. one current champion at the time) booked in a hotel room with 1 bed
- Women working multiple matches on the show & only getting paid for 1
De Lander last competed in a four way match against KiLynn King, Miyu Yamashita and Killer Kelly at CCW’s “Dead Zone” on April 15, 2023.
