10 WWE Superstars With Surprising Degrees
4. Mandy Rose - Speech Pathology
It turns out that the Golden Goddess is more than just a pretty face.
Mandy Rose first came to prominence as part of WWE's reality talent show, Tough Enough, placing second in the show's sixth season in 2015.
Rose may not have won the show, but she was signed to a contract nonetheless. She began appearing in NXT from early 2016, before being called up to the main roster shortly after Survivor Series 2017 as part of the ill-fated stable, Absolution.
Rose remains a fixture of the main roster alongside her tag team partner, Sonya Deville. Say what you will about her wrestling ability, but there's no denying that Mandy cuts an imposing figure on TV and is a very memorable character.
The New York City native studied Speech Pathology at Iona College and graduated with a bachelors degree. Speech Pathology is the study of speech and language disorders, so maybe WWE hired her to figure out why everybody is so bad promos.
Rose's qualification meant that she could have pursued a legitimate medical career if she wanted to, but she chose to follow her passion of competing in fitness and body-building competitions. This eventually led her to the world of pro wrestling.
