Former WWE star Mandy Rose continues to keep fans guessing about her future in professional wrestling. After being released by WWE in December 2022, Rose has remained active in the public eye through appearances at wrestling-related events, including participating in the BLP Wrestler’s Combine in September 2024. During the event, she made a surprise run-in during a match, sparking speculation about a potential in-ring comeback.
However, during a recent appearance on Highspots’ Virtual Gimmick Table, Rose was asked directly about her return to the ring. Her response suggests that while she hasn’t ruled out wrestling entirely, she remains undecided about when—or if—she will wrestle again.
Mandy Rose on Returning to Wrestling
Rose gave an honest and open-ended answer when asked about stepping back into the ring:
“I’m not sure. I don’t know if I have an answer for that. I know it’s the question I get asked all day every day about it. I feel like there may be some unfinished business in the ring with Mandy Rose, especially now things ended. However, I don’t also know…I don’t know where or when will be, if the right time, if the right place, and what that looks like because it’s such a what if thing.”
She acknowledged the uncertainty surrounding her decision but emphasized that she’s enjoying life outside of wrestling:
“I’m really enjoying my life right now and all the opportunities that I have and everything that I’m doing outside of wrestling and obviously involving wrestling as well like here [the signing]. But I really don’t know. I know it’s a very open-ended answer, but yeah, that’s all I got for you for that.”
Life After WWE
Since her WWE release, Rose has stayed busy with ventures outside the ring, including fitness, modeling, and other entrepreneurial pursuits. Her exit from WWE came at a time when she was riding high as the NXT Women’s Champion, holding the title for a remarkable 413 days, making her release a shock to fans and industry insiders alike.
Despite stepping away from full-time wrestling, Rose has kept ties to the industry through signings, meet-and-greets, and appearances like the BLP Wrestler’s Combine, ensuring her presence remains felt among fans.
