Lately, we’ve seen a trend of former WWE wrestlers returning to the ring, even after leaving for other projects. Big names like John Cena and The Rock, who are now deeply involved in Hollywood, have made their comebacks. Nikki Bella also recently returned to the women’s division. Fans are now hoping for the epic return of AJ Lee, CM Punk’s wife.
Another name that often comes up is Mandy Rose. The content she shared on her FanTime page led to her release from WWE in December 2022. Recently, in an interview, she spoke about the possibility of returning to wrestling.
However, her comments suggest that making a comeback won’t be easy for her. In a recent episode of her “Power Alphas” podcast, she shared that her return to wrestling is difficult because of health issues like arthritis and disc degeneration in her neck.
She said, “I never know if there’s ever going to be a return in the future for me… have been seeing a chiropractor because I’ve had a little bit of, you know, trauma in the cervical spine area.”
She then added, “We got x-rays, found out that, like, I have, you know, some arthritis in, like, my C6, C7, C8 area, some degeneration in my discs, so been getting some treatments. So, right now, I feel like a wrestling (WWE) return for me wouldn’t really make much sense.”
Mandy Rose opens up about her relationship with WWE Women’s Champion
On the same “Power Alphas” episode, Mandy Rose talked about the rumors about her and WWE Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton. It all started when Rose jokingly said that Stratton “stole” her slogan, “Put some respect on my name.”

She said, “First of all, let’s just make something clear; I never bashed Tiffany Stratton. I actually put her over another previous episode weeks before, about how I think she’s an amazing talent. I think she’s definitely going places. “
WWE Fans on social media started to think there was tension between the two. Rose’s clarification should help clear up any wrong ideas that are spreading among fans.
