The reigning NXT Women’s Champion Mandy Rose recently took to her Instagram account and posted a picture wearing her Halloween costume and posed with a knife.
Mandy Rose confirms her brother’s death
Earlier this month, the leader of Toxic Attraction lived a tragedy when her older brother Richie passed away aged 40. Due to that, the NXT Women’s Champion missed a few NXT events. However, Rose defended her title against Alba Fyre at NXT Halloween Havoc. With the help of her Toxic Attraction teammates Gigi Dolin and Jacy Jayne, Rose defeated Fyre to retain her championship. The leader of Toxic Attraction is now the third longest-reigning NXT Women’s Champion in history. She has held the title for more than 362 days so far.
In a post on Instagram Stories, Mandy Rose confirmed the passing of her brother Richard Saccomanno and thanked everyone for their support. He passed away on October 3.
She wrote:
“I just wanted to thank everyone who paid their respects for my brother. The last few days weren’t easy but we’re so thankful for all of our family and friends who supported us in this tragic time & celebrated Richie’s life. I know Richie would even be surprised to see how many people cared about him and loved him. Still feels like a bad dream. RIP Richie.. we love you.“
