WWE abruptly released Mandy Rose when she was on the road to becoming the longest-reigning NXT Women's Champion in the company's history. Recently, she spoke about her move to the developmental brand and revealed that she wasn't happy with her final main roster run.
During the ThunderDome Era, Mandy Rose teamed up with Dana Brooke on Monday Night RAW. Unfortunately, Rose and Brooke went nowhere as a tag team on WWE's main roster before The Golden Goddess was sent to the then-Black-and-Gold brand after WrestleMania 37.
However, the move revived Mandy Rose's career in the promotion before her eventual release. During an appearance on the Heated Shenanigans Podcast, Mandy Rose spoke about her move to NXT and revealed she wasn't extremely happy with her main roster run.

"It was called to my attention that I was going to go back to NXT, didn't really have many reasons. I just took it as a challenge. I didn't take it as a demotion, I took it as an opportunity to be able to showcase myself and get a fresh coat of paint... I was kinda in a place where I wasn't extremely happy with what was going on with me on TV and where I was at. I felt like I had more potential and I had more to show to the WWE and NXT Universe. I felt it was really a great time to do that," said Rose [From 03:35 to 04:15]

Former WWE champion opens up about her past feud with Mandy Rose
Mandy Rose got her break on WWE's main roster alongside Sonya Deville. The two became a tag team before the company introduced the Women's Tag Team Championship.
Unfortunately, Fire and Desire never won the gold and eventually split up when The Golden Goddess started a romantic storyline with Otis. Speaking to Chris Van Vliet on Insight, Sonya Deville talked about their renowned rivalry on the brand.
"It was real! A lot of it was real. We're best friends; We're like sisters. We love like sisters; we fight like sisters. And, so much of it was that I felt that Mandy had gotten opportunities in the ring; it's because she had a certain look, and I didn't have that."
