Former Moderator. RIP Icemark.
Probably blown coolant seals in the engine, not the water pump.
Either that or you used a crappy aftermarket thermostat and its jammed up and in backwards

Is the water pump leaking at all? Thats usually a pretty good sign that it might be on it's way out. Icemark is right though. If you just bought a thermostat at your local parts store, that could potentially be the problem, too. Try to get one directly from Mazda if you can.
