Mandy Rose Reflects On Being The Leader Of Toxic Attraction In WWE NXT

The second run Mandy Rose had in WWE NXT was a dominant one as the leader of Toxic Attraction.

Former WWE Superstar Mandy Rose was a recent guest on Threads with McKenzie Mitchell. When asked what it meant to her to lead Toxic Attraction and its effect on Jacy Jayne and Gigi Dolin’s careers, Rose credited Jacy and Gigi for providing her character with some edge.

“We weren’t all matchy-matchy, which I always liked,” Mandy Rose said. “Even when Sonya Deville and I tag teamed like I don’t know we’re not the same person. We’re both very different, especially Sonya and I. And even with these girls, I didn’t know them that well, but I didn’t want to come in and make them look more like me.

“That was not the vibe that was never the intention from the get-go. Actually, if anything, it would have been me getting a little edginess from them. We all created our own little look, but it meshed so well together without being like oh, they’re so matchy-matchy.”

Mandy Rose’s tribute to Lara Croft

When asked about the iconic red gear she won the NXT Championship in, Rose said it was inspired by Lara Croft from Tomb Raider.

“Obviously, when I won the title right before that is when I came back to NXT, and I went with the dark hair look,” Mandy Rose said. “I just had kind of a different vibe going; I just wanted to be a little edgier, I wanted to be taken a little more serious because it was always the Golden Goddess, and I wanted to switch it up. I always loved the red and black combination, but this is actually inspired from Lara Croft from Tomb Raider. She had that like sexy look, but also like badass look.”
