Mandy Rose Reveals Who Told Her She Was Dropping The NXT Women’s Title

Mandy Rose held the NXT Women’s Championship for 413 days which is why many fans were shocked to see her drop the belt to Roxanne Perez on the December 13, 2022 episode of NXT. The next day it was reported that Mandy had been released and the wrestling world has been processing the news ever since.

The former champion recently talked about the title change on The Sessions with Renee Paquette and she said that she was completely surprised when she found out that the title match had been moved up. According to Mandy Rose her match with Roxanne Perez was originally scheduled for Vengeance Day, but she found out that WWE had changed plans earlier in the day.

“Everyone treated me so great at NXT. I had a great relationship with Shawn Michaels, the writers, the producers, everyone. I was never kept out of the loop, being a champion for 413 days. I was in the loop with everything. I didn’t have many surprises like that. So it was very like… whoa, did I do something, what’s going on? Obviously I had some inclination because of what was going on social media, and what was going on the night before.”

While discussing the title change Mandy Rose noted that the news came from Shawn Michaels when she added, “It came from Shawn Michaels himself, so obviously, I knew it was coming from head of creative in that sense. I didn’t have to go and seek other answers, even though I wanted other answers. At that moment, I had to do my job and get planning our match and everything else that we had to do that night.”
