8 Ups & 2 Downs From WWE SmackDown (Dec 27)

Downs...

2. The Contradiction Of Mandy Rose

Someone needs to have a word with Mandy Rose and tell her that shades of grey are fine, but confusing presentation isn't. One minute, Mandy is acting like a friendly face to comedy oddballs like Otis. The next, she's screaming lines like, "You will never look like me" at beautiful women like Carmella.

Her character needs refining.

It's a total contradiction to go from segment-to-segment with such wild changes. Why would Mandy berate clearly gorgeous people like 'Mella but happily receive home-baked cakes from sweaty messes like Otis? WWE are trying to tell some sort of body beautiful story here, and yet it's all rather clumsily presented.

Providing a reason for why a self-obsessed, model princess like Rose would suddenly act all nicey-nice to a bumbling oaf like Otis would help too. The writers haven't even bothered to explain her random change from Muscle & Fitness bitch to someone who can look past someone's appearance.
