Mandy Rose continues to claim that Michaels was the one who let her go from her NXT deal.
Mandy Rose appeared in an interview on The Sessions with Renee Paquette where she talked about her transition from NXT superstar to self-made millionaire. She also recalled what happened on her last night at WWE.
“Completely surprised with everything. I went into work like a normal Tuesday for TVs and, you know, I was told that the title match that was supposed to happen down the line at Vengeance Day was when it was supposed to maybe happen, but that was all up in the air, that’s the only news I got as far as for the future. But it was said that we were gonna actually do the match tonight. That was around 2 o’clock when I was told. Right away, I had the inclination that something was up because everyone treated me so great at NXT. I had a great relationship with Shawn Michaels, the writers, the producers, everyone,”
“I was never like kept out of the loop either, being the champion for 413 days. I didn’t really have many surprises like that. So, it’s very like, ‘woo, did I do something? what’s going on?’ Obviously, I had some inclination ‘coz of what was going on social media and what was going on the night before. It came from Shawn Michaels himself.
So, I knew it was coming from the Head of Creative. So I knew that was it. I didn’t really have to go and seek other answers even though I wanted other answers but at that moment I had to do my job and get planning our match and everything else we had to do that night,
Mandy Rose
For the record, Shawn Michaels claims that he did not make any call to fire Mandy Rose. Either way, the situation still saw her release from the company.
