"There was a lot of mixed emotions" - Mandy Rose reflects on her return to NXT

NXT Women's Champion Mandy Rose has reflected on her return to WWE's developmental show.

Rose returned during the tail-end of the brand's fabled black-and-gold era and formed Toxic Attraction. Following the brand's re-vamp to NXT 2.0, the faction captured all the gold the show had to offer, with Rose beating Io Shirai for the NXT Women's Title. Her stablemates Gigi Dolin & Jacy Jayne have since become two-time NXT Women's Tag Team Champions.

During a recent appearance on WWE's The Bump, Rose reflected on her year in NXT and the changes she has faced since joining the brand. She mentioned that previous experiences in and out of the ring prepared her for her NXT return.

She also noted that her can-do attitude and willingness to adapt to the situation were crucial factors in her success on the brand.

"There was a lot of mixed emotions. I think everything that I've learned over the years, and everything that I've been through, even prior to wrestling. I'm a very go-with-the-flow type of person, and I know what I can bring to the table... At the end of the day, I had really good feeling about," Rose said. (0:26-0:53)
