Last week's colourful NXT 2.0 has certainly led to mixed reactions online (this Tuesday's effort appears to have fared a little better, thankfully) and it definitely didn't feel like the NXT of old. One big change saw Mandy Rose, WWE's "Golden Goddess," debut a startling new look. Now wearing black and sporting darker hair, it looks like she'll be pushed as a top star.
Rose had a relatively successful run on the main roster, though it never really felt like WWE knew what to do with her. She worked well as a heel alongside Sonya Deville and manager Paige in Fire & Desire, though was perhaps most popular when WWE paired her with Otis.
That romance storyline was a fun one, though it didn't have the greatest of endings. After that, Rose paired with Dana Brooke as a tag team, though they struggled to really get off the ground.
In NXT, Mandy can repackage and reinvent herself, and that's evident from this new look. Clearly, she's moving on from her time as that "Golden Goddess," and the former main roster Superstar recently took to Instagram to share some very revealing photos highlighting her refreshed appearance.
