Former WWE Superstar Mandy Rose is set to make her first wrestling appearance after her WWE release in 2021.
Mandy Rose Is Set To Make Her Wrestling Return
Rose’s release surprised most fans due to how well she was doing at the time. The former Tough Enough competitor had risen to the top of WWE NXT’s women’s division, leading her own faction known as Toxic Attraction. She was a top heel for the company, putting together great work on the microphone and inside the ring.
However, the decision to release risque content on the Fan Time subscription service went against WWE’s values. The company opted to release her because her personal brand didn’t align with WWE’s PG rules.
Since then, she’s leaned into the Fan Time account, which has led her to financial success, but fans have always clamored for her to return to wrestling. Now it’s happening, sort of. She has been announced to make a rare wrestling appearance for Black Label Pro at Crowning Glory.
Rose will be part of the DraftKings Wrestling Combine at their upcoming Crowning Glory event on September 4th.
What Is The DraftKings Wrestling Combine?
Rose will join some familiar faces who have already been announced for the Wrestling Combine. TNA’s Ash by Elegance and Jordynne Grace are set to be involved, while Mike Rallis (FKA Riddick Moss), Parker Boudreaux, and Xia Xhao (FKA Xia Li) are all also taking part in a star-studded event.
The Combine will showcase four men and four women competing in a series of athletic contests to determine who is the best overall athlete. It is sure to provide some impressive feats of athleticism and strength.
The event is also going to feature an appearance from WWE Hall Of Famer Jerry Lawler, while Mustafa Ali will be wrestling against Sabin Guage. On top of that, Raj Dhesi (FKA Jinder Mahal) will defend his BLP Championship against “Filthy” Tom Lawlor.
