10 Next Big Things Currently On WWE's Books
6. Mandy Rose
You may know Mandy Rose as plain old Amanda, as she’s another of Tough Enough fame. Although, unlike her peers we previously covered, Rose fared much better in the competition by finishing in the show’s final four.
And again, much like Deville, Rose has recently been earning praise for her work on that same NXT live event that was mentioned in the previous slide.
In his review for the Wrestling Observer, Dave Meltzer gave special praise to Rose, noting that the rookie “has superstar potential. She’s [not only] exceptionally good looking, but is athletic and for two years in, has great poise in the ring. She’s a lot farther along at the same stage than most of the women they’ve trained.”
That athleticism may well come from her background in bodybuilding, which saw her place first in the World Bodybuilding Fitness and Fashion (WBFF) World Championships to be crowned the WBFF Diva Bikini Pro World Champion.
Rose was also added to the main cast for season five of Total Divas, which is surely a sign of the company having a fair amount of faith in her.
