Rosa Mendes Was in Rehab; Possibly Fabricated a Story of Domestic Violence

WWE Diva Rosa Mendes returned to WWE television Monday night on RAW as the dancing partner of “Miz-dango.” Her appearance on the program was the first time that she had been on TV since April. That month, Mendes was sent home early from the WWE European tour. The cause was cited and documented by the WWE, and the company revealed to WrestlingRumors.net that month that she was sent home due to “personal reasons.”

The Wrestling Observer is reporting that Mendes has spent the last four months away from the WWE in a rehabilitation center. The report also states that many people in the company believe that she fabricated a story last year concerning a domestic violence altercation with her then-fiancé, former WWE talent Steven Slocum (a/k/a Jackson Andrews). Mendes claimed that Slocum had physically abused her.

Mendes’ employment status with the WWE is considered to be very rocky, where as if she messes up again, she’ll most likely be let go.
