After filming in Paris, she experienced a confidence crisis and called her ex-boyfriend in tears.

Rose felt that the show was more "real life" than just a television production.

Issues arose as the cast of 'WWE Total Divas' seemed uninterested in hanging out with her.

Being labeled "the next big thing" in WWE also added immense pressure on Mandy Rose.

Rose's confidence took a hit despite being a Season 6 "Tough Enough" runner-up.

Rose struggled to form significant bonds with most of the season's roster, including the Bellas.

The Bellas, perceived as the "big thing," created an atmosphere of trying to please them.

Initially, Rose felt the Bellas didn't like her, but she now has a good relationship and respects them.

Reflecting on her journey, Rose navigated challenges on Total Divas, finding confidence and respect.
