What is going on with the Mandy Rose-Sonya Deville story line?

On Friday SmackDown, the match was changed to a loser leaves WWE match.  I have seen nothing on-line suggesting that the contract of either is about up or that either has asked to be released.  Particularly after the real life events of the past week, I can't see WWE releasing Sonya Deville now, and it would seem like an abrupt end to the Otis-Mandy story line.  

So is there some rumor that I am missing or are we looking at a possible swerve in the match or its aftermath?

Tim, I understand the reason for having a match between the two.  I was wondering why it is now a "loser leaves the WWE" match.  Is one actually about to leave?  Or are we about to have one of those "who is behind that mask" runs?   Or should we be looking for a swerve that leaves us with no result from tonight's match?

Sonya needs time off to deal with her real life situation.   this gives her that.  she will be back.

Maybe she wants to move to an undisclosed location where this Guy who is completely obsessed with her can't find her? She needs to go into Federal Witness Protection. If you read the compete account of what this guy had planned, she was really in danger. The Man was prepared to kidnap her and we might never have seen her again. The Man seems perfectly prepared to ignore Court Orders. Sonja Deville needs to be protected from him. So unfortunately she will take time off from WWE for her own safety.
