Mandy Rose Says She’s “Forever Grateful” But “Hurt” By WWE Release

Former WWE Superstar Mandy Rose has opened up on her career with the promotion and her shocking release last month.

Rose was cut from WWE after higher-ups learned of the content shared on her website, one day after losing the NXT Women’s Championship.

The ex-Superstar was earning far more on her website than she was in WWE, and earned $1 million in December 2022 via subscriptions.

Despite her controversial release, Rose told Tamron Hall that she still appreciates all that WWE did for her during her seven-year tenure.

“Because of everything that has happened since then, I honestly, everything happens for a reason. And I can’t even say I was wronged because I am so forever grateful for everything that the WWE has presented me with. So, I can’t sit here and say that I was wronged or not.”

Rose may be able to appreciate the opportunities WWE afforded her, but that has not made losing her job any easier.

“I’m hurt, yes, 100%. I’m hurt. I’m very hurt. Because no one wants to get that call that you’re being fired from any job, right? So I was very hurt and I was very disappointed. I was disappointed so much more because of, everything that I put into the business in just the last year and a half.”

Rose concluded on a positive note as she discussed her career with the promotion.

“At the end of the day. I love what I’ve done in the WWE. And I love that platform and what it presented me with, so I am forever grateful to WWE.”

Rose is currently serving a 90-day non-compete clause with WWE, though given how much she has earned online, questions have been raised as to whether she will return to wrestling.
