Rosa Mendes (real name Milena Roucka) has announced her retirement from the WWE. Mendes took to Instagram earlier today to break the news to the WWE Universe. She’s been with the company since 2006 and has been inactive since April of 2015 after getting pregnant.
Here’s what she had to say about her decision to hang up the boots:
“Today is Jordan’s first birthday and it’s also the day that I am announcing my retirement from the WWE,” Roucka wrote. ” As I write these words I have tears in my eyes because of the love I have for my WWE family, and especially for the WWE universe. For the last 10 years, WWE was my life, my world and my family. I was Rosa Mendes. Now I am Milena Roucka, Jordan’s mother, a soon to be wife and a hard working entrepreneur. For years I have been fortunate to put smiles on people’s faces worldwide, performed for hundreds of thousands of fans and lived off of the adrenaline from the WWE audience.”
