JUST IN: Mandy Rose Claims Jealousy Among WWE Women Over Her Success
Former WWE Superstar Mandy Rose has made headlines again, this time asserting that many women within WWE are envious of her achievements both inside and outside the squared circle. In a recent interview, Rose did not hold back, suggesting that her rapid rise, marketability, and post-WWE success have sparked jealousy among her former colleagues.
โLetโs be honest,โ Rose stated. โNot everyone was happy for me when I started gaining traction, whether it was on NXT, winning the championship, or expanding my brand beyond WWE. I could feel it. The looks, the commentsโit was jealousy, plain and simple.โ
Rose, who held the NXT Womenโs Championship for over 400 days, reinvented herself during her time on WWEโs developmental brand. She led the faction Toxic Attraction and was widely praised for improving her in-ring work and overall presentation. Her run was a significant pivot from her earlier portrayal on the main roster, and for many fans, it marked her evolution into a top-tier performer.
โI worked hard to change the narrative around me,โ she continued. โPeople labeled me as just a pretty face, but I proved them wrong. And that success didnโt sit well with everyone.โ
Since her departure from WWE in December 2022, Rose has continued to grow her brand, making waves on social media and launching her own content platform, which reportedly earned her substantial income. She has also hinted at future ventures in business, fitness, and media, expanding her influence beyond professional wrestling.
Roseโs bold comments add to the ongoing discourse around the dynamics of the WWE womenโs locker room, a space that has historically been competitive and politically charged. While some might view her statements as controversial, others see them as a reflection of the challenges women face when breaking molds in the wrestling industry.
โSuccess is intimidating,โ Rose said. โWhen you donโt fit into the box people want to keep you in, it causes friction. But Iโm not here to please everyoneโIโm here to build my empire.โ
Whether one agrees with her or not, thereโs no denying that Mandy Rose has become one of the most talked-about women to emerge from WWE in recent years. Her comments serve as a reminder of the personal rivalries and backstage tensions that often simmer beneath the surface of professional wrestlingโs glamorous exterior.
