The more you know. The biggest wrestling story of the week has been the surprise release of Mandy Rose from WWE. After an out of nowhere ending to her 413 day NXT Women’s Title reign, Rose was released from the company the following day. The release seems to be tied to Rose posting risque and adult photos to a subscription site. Now we know a bit more about what went down.

Wrestling Observer Radio has more details about the process that led to Rose’s firing. NXT trainer Matt Bloom reportedly informed NXT head Shawn Michaels about the photos, which caused Michaels to immediately make the decision to have Rose drop the title. The match between Rose and Roxanne Perez was originally planned for New Year’s Evil on January 10. Once the title change took place, Rose was let go from the company. Finally, Rose reportedly went further and further with her photos until WWE decided they went too far and she was finally released.
Rose had a great run with WWE. Check out some of her time with Toxic Attraction:
Opinion: The more I hear about this, the more it seems that WWE had very little choice but to let Rose go. If they kept telling her to stop doing something and she refused, what else could they do? At the same time, if Rose is happy to keep doing her site and not be in WWE, it’s her decision to make. I would like to have her back in WWE one day, but we might be more than a long time away from that happening.
