Some interesting notes from the Observer: It is believed she was fired without being given the option to take the stuff down and tone down her site. Those in the company felt that had no other choice then to fire her because she was an active performer on the roster, and these were public photos and videos for customers, unlike several of the women stars who have had their personal private photos hacked and released without their knowledge or permission where the company saw the talent as the victims. For reasons of backstage political machinations, she was moved back to NXT in July 2021 and put in the group Toxic Attraction. I don’t think that Mattel called for her release, in fact I doubt that they even knew about the site. I think that she was released because she was in violation of the morality clause that exists due to Mattel being a sponsor without Mattel calling for a release. Reading between the lines this is part of the reason why I’m almost certain that the WWE found out how much she was making from the site and that was part of the reason why she was let go. Can’t have someone making more money from their own hustles than the top wrestlers on the roster. i don’t know what “political machinations” means but if Meltzer is going to drop something like that he really needs to explain it. SMH. It is probably as simple as some people backstage probably not liking her because they just viewed her as a beauty model that can't wrestle. That is why she got a lot of hate on this site. She really improved in NXT, so it is disappointing that we won't get to see her on the main roster anytime soon, even though I don't blame the WWE for releasing her.

You know it's a big story when Booker T says something dumb about it: Booker really can't just shut the f*** up and take his paycheck can he? Dude constantly has the worst takes about any situation ever. If Booker has taught me anything, it's to never ever take advice from him.

Using one makes that negative point. Using both cancels each other out.

Booker T, takes one step forward with a good take, but then always takes several steps back with several bone headed takes. Its like I almost always expect it coming from him

Not sure I understand what he's saying here. Is he comparing Jeff Hardy's "issues" with Mandy consensually making money off of her body? If anything, WWE "used" her sex appeal first during NXT especially.

You know it's a big story when Booker T says something dumb about it: "I wish her well" after "I don't want anyone to support her financially". Booker T's not a very nice person.

I interpreted it as "use her" as in use her like a disposable object not use her as in hire her. So hence he could be like "don't use her" and still wish her well without it not making any sense. But maybe that is just me.

But maybe that is just me. Yeah, I think he just worded it pretty poorly because, well, Booker's not very smart.

Even past that point I kind of find the whole thing head-tilting just because I'm wondering what a non-"so called" promoter would be to Booker T. He seems to think literally any company that isn't WWE needs to shut its doors yesterday.

I mean, Booker’s a promoter technically so I took it as self deprivation.
That’s likely not what he meant but that’s how I’m deciding to take it.

Another interesting wrinkle to this is the fact that WWE does own Mandy Rose the trademark at her consent according to the trademark on file. This is unusual as like John Cena WWE basically owns a part or all of someone's real name tmsearch.uspto.gov/
