UPDATED: More On Mandy Rose’s WWE Release, Rose Reportedly In ‘Good Spirits’

UPDATE: A new report has a few more details on Mandy Rose’s WWE release. Fightful Select reports that the decision to take the NXT Women’s Championship off Rose was a done in a “very hasty” manner, with word getting out minutes before the show went on the air.

Rose was said to be in good spirits at Tuesday’s NXT taping and following her release; she will be fine financially. She reportedly had two years left on her contract when she was released, having signed a new five year deal in 2019. While Mandy’s stablemates in Jacy Jayne and Gigi Dolin had received looks for a potential move to the main roster and had impressed higher-ups, there had not been any advanced plans to bring Rose back to the main roster.

ORIGINAL: As previously reported, Mandy Rose was fired from the WWE due to nude photos she posted on her fan subscription service. This led to her dropping the NXT Women’s title to Roxanne Perez on Tuesday’s episode. In the latest Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Melter reported more details on what led up to the title change.

According to the report, Matt Bloom brought the photos to the attention of Shawn Michaels. Michaels then decided that they had to take the belt off of Rose immediately. So even though the match was set for New Year’s Evil, it was rushed to last Tuesday instead. Once the title change happened, Rose was let go from the company.

It was noted that Rose went ‘further and further’ with her photo posting until WWE felt that she ‘crossed the line’ and they had no choice but to fire her.
