WWE releases Mandy Rose ‘over risque photos and videos on FanTime site’-Alistair McGeorge-Entertainment – Metro
She held the NXT Women’s Championship for 413 days.
WWE has released Mandy Rose over risqué content on her FanTime site.
The former NXT Women’s Champion, who lost the title to rising star Roxanne Perez on Tuesday night, has been let go after seven years with the company following their match this week.
As reported by Fightful Select’s Sean Ross Sapp, ‘WWE officials felt they were put in a tough position based on the content she was posting on her FanTime page’.
He added: ‘They felt like it was outside of the parameters of her WWE deal.’
Mandy’s account reportedly featured risqué photos and videos of the star, and it appears to have been ruled to be at odds with the company’s more PG leanings since around 2008.
The 32-year-old star, who got engaged to fellow wrestler Tino Sabbatelli in September, is yet to comment officially on her release.
However, she has shared a collage of her time in NXT on her Instagram Story, highlighting her journey since joining the brand in July 2021, when she formed Toxic Attraction with Gigi Dolin and Jacy Jayne the following month.
She first joined WWE in 2015 after appearing on reality show Tough Enough, where she was the runner up to late winner Sara Lee, who tragically died earlier this year aged 30.
Mandy made her main roster debut in 2017 and would appear on both Raw and SmackDown before moving to NXT, regarded as WWE’s developmental brand, last summer and enjoying a career resurgence.
She held the NXT Women’s Title for 413 days before losing the gold to Roxanne on this week’s episode of NXT.
During her time on the main roster, she was also involved in a high profile, popular love triangle storyline with veteran Dolph Ziggler and fan favourite star Otis.
Metro.co.uk has contacted WWE for comment.
WWE NXT airs Tuesday nights at 1am on BT Sport 1.
