For several years WWE had its own reality television show to determine the next future star of Sports Entertainment. The show is called WWE Tough Enough. Some of the names that have made a name for themselves in the professional wrestling business via the Tough Enough show are The Miz, Sonya Deville, Velveteen Dream, Maven, John Morrison, and many more. Adding to this list is former WWE Superstar, the Golden Goddess Mandy Rose.
While speaking on the recent episode of the Power Alphas podcast, Mandy Rose commented on her performance in the Tough Enough series. She was the runner’s up in her season.
“I became like ‘the b****’ [on Tough Enough]…I’d never been on a reality show before, it was very new to me. The girls and the guys, we gotta stir up drama, but I was never the one to stir the pot or like just be in that circle in real life… I don’t like confrontation,” Mandy Rose said. The former WWE NXT Women’s Champion said she did her best to focus on the goal of the program. “The main goal for me was, show my athleticism…so I just like worked my butt off.” [H/T Wrestling Inc.]
Rose also appreciated what she had learned from the veterans such as Lita and Chris Jericho.
“Lita — Amy Dumas — and Chris Jericho one day sat me aside,” Mandy Rose recalled. The WWE legends reassured her that her athletic gifts were being noticed. “[They told me], ‘There’s one thing you’re kinda missing…You need to bring it more. You need to bring that sass.'” Mandy was told to create drama for the reality show. “I thought it was really nice that they helped me out in that sense.” [H/T Wrestling Inc.]
