All Elite Wrestling President Tony Khan revealed on his official Twitter account that Renee Paquette has officially signed with the company.
Prior to signing with AEW, Paquette worked with The Score in Canada from 2009 – 2012, prior to taking on a role with the WWE, under the name of Renee Young, from 2012 until her departure in 2020.
Renee had, according to Dave Meltzer, turned down WWE in the past few days after they had changed their broadcasting teams;
“WWE had contacted her to return as it shook up its announcing teams this past week for the new television season, which started Friday night. When she turned down the offer, those in WWE had noted that they believed she was headed to AEW,” Dave Meltzer wrote. “Since she left WWE, there had always been some talk of her in AEW as part of the announcing team in some form, mostly because of Moxley. She was generally considered the strongest backstage interviewer in wrestling for years.”
Renee hosts “The Sessions” (Formerly ‘Oral Sessions’, the OGs remember Mrs Paquette!) which is her hit podcast series which you can find below;
