Mandy Rose broke her silence after losing to Roxanne Perez

Mandy Rose enjoyed a historic reign as the NXT Women's Champion, and it's safe to say that her tenure on the brand has been the most successful period of her WWE career so far.

In the aftermath of her loss to Roxanne Perez, Rose took to Twitter to send a two-word reaction. She thanked the WWE Universe for their support.

"Thank you," she wrote.

There is a chance of Mandy Rose moving back to either RAW or SmackDown. Her Toxic Attraction stablemates Gigi Dolin and Jacy Jayne have also appeared on the blue brand in the past and might accompany her if she returns to the main roster.
