Former WWE star Mandy Rose opened up about her potential return to the ring on her Power Alphas with Mandy and Sabby podcast. Rose gives her fans reason to be optimistic, stating that she does get the itch and knows there’s unfinished business waiting for her in wrestling.
She spoke about her appearance at the recent BLP Wrestlers Combine event, where she had an injury scare with her knee. Thankfully, an MRI ruled out anything serious:
“I was asked to do a little run-in. I was iffy about it since I haven’t made an in-ring appearance yet. It was literally two seconds, and I was feeling under the weather. As I went to give my knee to Shazza, my other leg gave out. Thankfully, you wouldn’t be able to tell, but the back of my knee has been bothering me.
I had an MRI and nothing alarming came up. It’s just weird movements; it happened at the gym one day too. It’s not anything scary, but it did make me wonder if my time in the ring is done.”
Despite the scare, Rose confessed that the experience stirred something in her:
“I miss wrestling, the camaraderie, the fans, and the adrenaline rush.”
As for her potential return to the ring, Rose remains unsure. She explained that while she still feels the “itch” to compete, other aspects of her life need to be considered:
“I do have the itch a little bit, but I have a lot going on. For me, it has to make sense—emotionally, physically, not just financially. I love my current life—spending time with family, planning my wedding. Do I want to jump back into the physical toll and constant traveling? I know there’s unfinished business for me, but I’m just not sure if now is the time.”
Mandy Rose established herself as one of the most popular performers of her era, and she has a lot of fans eagerly awaiting her return to the bright lights of pro wrestling.
