Is Rosa Mendes dating WWE backstage authority Michael Hayes?

During a recent episode of MLW Radio, the hosts implied that the veteran WWE Diva is indeed involved in a relationship with the 55-year-old eccentric retired wrestler.

After show host and former WWE creative writer Court Bauer said that the finish to the Daniel Bryan vs. Triple H match at WrestleMania XXX was reminiscent of Hayes’ past creative decisions for WWE, fellow co-host Mister Saint Laurent asked, “What was his girlfriend dressed as in that Divas match?” — Mendes was among the fourteen participants in The Vickie Guerrero Divas Championship Invitational won by AJ Lee. Konnan then asked, “Which one’s his girlfriend?” Laurent replied Mendes. Konnan noted that he heard from within WWE that Hayes was going on about her dyed blonde locks to co-workers, and compared her look to that of 1950s and 1960s sex symbol Marilyn Monroe.

The 34-year-old has been linked to Hayes in the past. In October, the Fabulous Freebird founder was suspended by WWE for being spotted drinking with Mendes shortly after she had completed a rehabilitation program. The prior April, she was dismissed from WWE’s tour of Europe for what was cited by the sports-entertainment organization to online wrestling news outlets as “personal reasons”, and then entered rehab. WWE framed Hayes’ absence to the wrestling media as: “Michael is taking a leave of absence for personal reasons.”

Hayes drinking with Mendes was reported by Bauer on MLW Radio, who stated: “Because of this lapse in judgment, he was told he’d be basically suspended from school for a few weeks. He’s not going anywhere; he’s still in the company. He’s still very much involved, so it’s not the end of Michael Hayes.”

Rumors of Mendes having a physical relationship with Hayes actually date back to 2011. A few months after Chris Masters was released from WWE, he posted a blind item on his Twitter account alleging that a female member of the SmackDown roster maintains sexual relations with Hayes in order to keep her job.

“So if I had to tell you one smackdown diva who gave freebird hayes an “Oral” agreement to keep her job, who’d you guess?” Masters wrote on October 30, 2011.

Many wrestling fans online believed the individual to be Mendes considering her lack of worth to the company after several years of gainful employment.

Similar allegations regarding sexual politics in the WWE locker room have been made in recent years as former Diva performer Taryn Terrell (a/k/a Tiffany) remarked in December 2010 that she would not trade sexual favors with individuals in positions of power in order to maintain employment with the sports-entertainment organization.

“No…if I have to sleep with people in power to keep or continue progressing in my job, I’d rather be poor,” she wrote on Twitter in response to a specific question about whether she would return to WWE.
