Renee joined the WWE all the way back in 2012. She has since become one of the most recognizable personalities in the promotion. She has served the promotion as a presenter, backstage interviewer and commentator.
In fact, she was the first female commentator on WWE RAW back in August 2018. She continued in that role until October after she moved to SmackDown as a “special contributor” in 2019.
She most recently served as the host of WWE Backstage on Fox Sports 1, alongside Booker T and CM Punk, which was sadly cancelled by the network in June.
Some people have speculated that she may join AEW where her husband Jon Moxley is the world champion. However, she does have a no compete clause in her contract. ESPN is also rumoured to be interested in signing her.
Only time will tell where she goes from here, knowing Renee however, whatever she does end up doing, she will surely do her best in it to succeed.
