Former NXT Women’s Champion Mandy Rose’s departure from the WWE came as an enormous shock to millions of fans around the world. The prestige wrestling promotion released the 32-year-old from her contract last month because of her FanTime content. The release came on the back of a tremendous professional achievement as Mandy became the third women’s fighter in the company’s history to hold on to her title for more than a year.

Mandy’s 413-day title reign concluded on the December 13th episode of NXT as Roxanne Perez beat her via pinfall and ended her reign of dominance. The WWE released the former champion the very next day, much to the dismay of her millions of supporters.

Despite her unceremonious exit, Mandy doesn’t bear an ill grudge towards the WWE and has spoken positively of her time at the promotion. The former ‘Toxic Attraction’ member recollected one of her favorite WWE memories, which sadly didn’t make the cut for the television screens, as it involved a goof-up and another WWE wrestler.

Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville made a fatal error during their rookie years

Mandy Rose signed with WWE in 2015 as she honed her craft and made her main roster debut in 2017. The Total Divas star made her debut on Monday Night Raw, with Sonya Deville and Paige forming the stable ‘Absolution’. Despite appearing in some high-profile storylines, Mandy could not catch momentum in her initial run.

In 2019, she reunited with Sonya to form ‘Fire and Desire’ and the duo went on an unsuccessful hunt to dethrone the then Women’s Tag Team Champions Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross. The pair ultimately turned heated rivals after a romantic storyline involving Dolph Ziggler and Otis. In 2020, Rose defeated her former partner in a Loser Leaves WWE match.

Despite the relationship’s tumultuous ending on screen, the duo enjoys a healthy friendship behind the cameras. Mandy revealed one of her treasured memories with Sonya on her Instagram story wherein the duo “drove to the wrong city for a show” because they were “too busy eating cheese curds in Wisconsin.”

A new future awaits the Toxic Attraction star

Mandy Rose is enjoying her spare time by engaging in activities that don’t involve a ring. She is an active member of the FanTime community and prepares content for her followers. The 32-year-old has also taken time out for leisurely activities as we saw her practicing her golf swing.

The former NXT Women’s champion is enjoying her newfound freedom, as witnessed through her social media posts. However, speculation persists that a return to WWE is on the cards for Mandy.

What do you think? Is there a chance that Mandy Rose returns to the ring soon?
