Former WWE star Mandy Rose could return to wrestling 'soon' after controversial sacking

Former WWE star Mandy Rose has hinted that she could return to wrestling soon after her controversial release from the company last year.

Rose was competing in the NXT brand at the time of her release in December, and had a 413-day reign as the NXT Women's Champion.

But the 33-year-old dropped the title to Roxanne Perez on an episode of NXT, and was officially released by WWE the following day.

Fightful reported that the decision was taken by the company due to what they considered as the 'explicit nature' of content she was posting on her FanTime page - a subscription platform that allows creators to monetize exclusive content.

It was added that the company felt the content was 'outside the parameters of her contract'.

After her WWE release, FanTime announced that Rose had made an eye-watering $1 million through the website in December alone. The former NXT Women's Champion then clarified to the Tamron Hall Show that she made that amount in just two and a half weeks.

She added: "I was very hurt [by the release], I was very disappointed. I was disappointed so much more because of everything that I put into the business, but just the last year-and-a-half.

"I also created a must-see faction [known as Toxic Attraction] with two other women that I also brought up, and I got to see so many women develop their characters. They're all younger than me and really in the beginning of their careers. To me, that was important.

"I would say, obviously, never say never [a return to WWE]."

Since that interview, Rose hasn't wrestled since being fired from WWE, leading to constant questions from fans over whether she will be making a return to the company.

And when asked by a fan on Instagram about whether she would come back to wrestling in the future, she responded: "Funny you asked... your girl may or may not be a free agent very soon."

The 33-year-old could follow the path laid by other former WWE stars and head to AEW or Impact Wrestling, while a return back to her former company may not be out of the question.
