Mandy Rose Recalls Being Told To Be Less Sexy In Early WWE Main Roster Days

Mandy Rose recently recalled how she was told she was being “too sexy” shortly after she joined the WWE main roster. Rose joined the main roster in November of 2017 and she looked back on that time during her interview with Elayna Black on her YouTube channel. You can see the highlights below, per Wrestling Inc:

On being told she was “too sexy”:“When I first got to the main roster I was like the golden goddess and the sexy one from Tough Enough and whatever, and I was told to take it down a notch, ‘You’re too sexy.’ So, now I’m going, ‘To be honest, I’m not even trying to be sexy,’ I just am, I wasn’t trying. But then what do you think happened when they told me to take it down a notch or I’m being too sexy?”

On her move to NXT: “I wanna be sexy but I don’t wanna put on sexy, I just wanna be me, and then I think it was my NXT days was when I finally felt, ‘This is me.’ I went a little darker, I was a little edgier, but that is me. Yes, I’m a blonde bombshell sometimes and all that, but I just feel like I was able to be my cool self… I think when you’re given the confidence in that aspect too, when you’re put on a little bit of a pedestal, it helps a lot with your confidence.”
