WWE’s Fandango Rates His Various Dance Partners


YouTube

WWE’s Fandango is currently entrenched in one of the most entertaining and fulfilling acts in all of professional wrestling, the Fashion Police, alongside Tyler Breeze. We love the guys to death and we recently got a chance to talk to them over WrestleMania 34 weekend, and you can listen to that entire interview on the latest episode of McMahonsplaining, the With Spandex Podcast.

But one thing we wanted to make sure to ask ‘Dango was about his ballroom dancing days (in WWE), which if you can believe it, started way back in 2013. When he first came onto the scene, he was paired with the first of what would be a line of ballroom dancing valets. Although said ballroom dancer, Andrea, wasn’t around long, she captivated fans’ imaginations, and is still talked about to this day as Fandango’s best compatriot (Tyler Breeze excluded).

When we had the opportunity to have Breezango as a captive audience, we wanted to be sure to ask Fandango about his opinion and thoughts of Andrea, and whether he loves her as much as the WWE Universe does.

“She was sweet as a peach,” said Fandango, remembering her fondly. “I think she was 21, 22 [years old]? A real professional ballroom dancer. She was a pro, yeah. And I think the WWE wanted someone that could go in the ring. I think they actually approached her about getting trained to learn how to wrestle, but I don’t think that was something that she wanted to do, coming from the ballroom world.”

When we pressed him, he finally agreed to rate them, rather then rank them from best to worst. “All right, I’ll rank them 1-10, starting with Andrea. Andrea was a nine. Summer was a two. Layla was a seven. And Rosa is Rosa. Next question.”

It’s not surprising that Andrea left ‘Dango just as impressed as she left WWE fans. After all, Andrea was the person who inspired fans to create things like this:

Now all we need is an Andrea “Leave the Memories Alone” video and we’ll have everything we could possibly need. We’ll also settle for a Layla “Leave the Memories Alone” tribute, because we miss Layla El pretty much all the time.
